Description
The Boxlight FrontRow IP Speaker Kit with CB75 Intercom Mic is a scalable network-based audio solution designed for school-wide paging, emergency alerts, bell schedules, announcements, and two-way intercom communication. Built for use with the FrontRow Conductor platform, this kit helps classrooms, hallways, gyms, auditoriums, and staff areas stay connected through reliable Ethernet-based communication.
This kit includes a flush-mount 1 x 2 ft lay-in ceiling speaker, plenum-rated ceiling enclosure, CB75 wall-mount intercom microphone with integrated speaker, CM900 networked audio controller, PoE extractor, and pre-wired components for faster deployment. It is ideal for rooms that need clear paging and intercom capability without requiring a full classroom audio amplification system.
Powered and networked through Ethernet, the system eliminates the need for AC wiring at the speaker location and supports centralized control for daily announcements, emergency messaging, and zone-based communication. For larger spaces, the system can support up to four total speakers with the required external power configuration.
