Valcom V-9028 Dual Input Lay-in Ceiling Speaker Backbox

Product Description

The VALCOM V-9028 is a dual-input lay-in ceiling speaker and backbox assembly designed for commercial paging, background music, and intercom distribution systems. The unit mounts in standard lay-in ceiling grid openings, making it a common choice for open-office environments, corridors, retail spaces, and light commercial facilities. The dual-input configuration allows connection from two separate audio sources, giving installers flexibility in zoned or multi-source audio layouts. It is typically installed by low-voltage technicians or commercial audio-video contractors as part of a structured sound distribution system.

The V-9028 is suited for commercial interior applications where a flush, low-profile ceiling appearance is required. It fits standard suspended ceiling grid systems and is appropriate for spaces requiring distributed audio coverage such as offices, schools, and retail environments. The integrated backbox design simplifies rough-in and provides a finished appearance without requiring a separate enclosure.
