Valcom VB-R22 Recessed Backbox Type 22 Wall Mount

Product Description

The VALCOM VB-R22 is a recessed backbox designed for flush-mount installation of compatible VALCOM speaker and intercom units. This Type 22 enclosure mounts into wall cavities, allowing the speaker or call station to sit flush with the finished wall surface rather than projecting outward. It is suited for commercial and institutional environments where a clean, low-profile appearance is required. Installers in the low-voltage communications and intercom trades use this backbox to prep the rough-in before the front unit is fitted. The enclosure ships as a single unit and is categorized as a wall mount accessory.

This backbox is intended for installation in drywall, plaster, or similar finished wall assemblies in commercial, office, school, healthcare, and light industrial settings. It provides the structural housing needed to recess a VALCOM Type 22 compatible device into the wall, keeping corridors and common areas clear of protruding hardware. It is a standard component in VALCOM paging and intercom system installations where surface-mount aesthetics are not acceptable.

Key Features

• Recessed wall mount design eliminates surface projection for a flush finish
• Type 22 designation ensures fitment with compatible VALCOM devices
• Single-unit quantity per package for straightforward project procurement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style recessed backbox for VALCOM Type 22 compatible speaker and intercom wall units in commercial paging and intercom systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed low-voltage or communications technician. Power down or de-energize the paging or intercom circuit before beginning work. The backbox should be secured to wall framing or blocking before drywall finishing is completed to ensure a solid, flush-mount base for the front unit. Follow applicable local building codes and NEC low-voltage wiring requirements throughout the installation.
