Axis Communications announced two multifunctional display speakers designed to reach even more people through combined visual and audio alerts. Featuring an attention-grabbing strobe bar, powerful speaker, and a color text display, these versatile indoor solutions raise the bar for clear public address in schools, healthcare facilities, transportation hubs, and more.
The AXIS C1710 Network Display Speaker and the dual-sided corridor model, the AXIS C1720 Network Display Speaker, are suited for general public address as well as urgent messaging. Built on open standards, the AXIS C17 Series integrates with third-party mass notification systems for effective communication.
The display and strobe are customizable, offering a variety of available colors and text animations for different scenarios. In addition, users can mix and match the audio, display text, and strobe as needed—for example, to create a static text reminder or a silent alert.
Built-in digital signal processing ensures high-quality sound for live announcements, event-triggered alerts, and scheduled messages, as well as bell signals, sirens, and background music—even in challenging acoustic environments. Similarly, the display ensures readability with brightness auto-adjustment and flexible text size and styling.
Key features include:
-
Combined speaker, display, and strobe
-
Two-way audio in full duplex with echo cancellation
-
Easy to integrate and to scale
-
Remote health monitoring
-
Content prioritization and audio zoning
AXIS C1710 comes with a wall mount included, and separate wall and ceiling mount accessories are available for installing AXIS C1720 in corridors. Installation is quick and easy. Once the safety bracket or safety wire is attached to the installation site, the installer hangs the unit on it, leaving two hands free to attach the PoE cable and tighten the safety Torx screws.
