Atlasied E408-250 250W 1.5 Db Plate Mount Attenuator

Product Description

The ATLASIED E408-250 is a precision plate-mount attenuator rated at 250 watts and 1.5 dB of attenuation, designed for use in 70-volt distributed audio systems. It provides fixed-level signal reduction at the speaker tap point, allowing installers to balance output levels across multiple zones without returning to the amplifier. At 250W power handling, the E408-250 is suited for commercial installations where high-headroom, consistent attenuation is required. A licensed audio or low-voltage systems integrator typically performs installation.

This attenuator is used in 70V distributed speaker systems commonly found in commercial facilities such as retail spaces, houses of worship, schools, offices, and hospitality venues. It mounts to a standard wall plate or back box location, making it appropriate for both new-construction and retrofit projects where volume-level trimming is needed at individual speaker or zone locations.

Key Features

• 250W power handling for high-demand commercial 70V audio systems
• 1.5 dB fixed attenuation for precise, consistent signal reduction
• Plate-mount form factor fits standard electrical back boxes
• Designed for 70-volt distributed audio networks
• Sold individually for flexible zone-by-zone deployment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style component for 70-volt distributed audio systems requiring plate-mount, fixed-attenuation volume control at the speaker or zone level.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed low-voltage systems integrator or audio systems technician. De-energize the amplifier and the 70V distribution circuit before making any wiring connections at the attenuator. Follow applicable local low-voltage wiring codes and the facility's audio system documentation to ensure correct tap-point placement. Do not exceed the rated 250W power handling when sizing the attenuator for a given zone.
