The Kramer PN-6D receives networked Dante audio and power over Ethernet in a suspended speaker format. Its 6.5-inch two-way design brings sound coverage to spaces suited to pendant mounting.
PN-6D Detailed Features
- Deliver networked audio to a suspended speaker. The integrated Dante interface receives audio over Ethernet. Pendant mounting places the speaker below the ceiling, making it suitable for spaces where a suspended enclosure fits the room design.
- Carry audio and power on the network connection. PoE operation reduces the need for a separate local power feed. Select a network switch or injector with an appropriate PoE class and sufficient total power budget.
- Use a two-way driver system for voice and music. A 6.5-inch low-frequency driver works with a 0.75-inch tweeter. The published frequency response is 85Hz–18kHz within ±3dB, supporting installed speech and background music applications.
- Plan output around available PoE power. Continuous output is rated at 10W, while peak capability varies with PoE, PoE+, or PoE++. Higher-power network supply modes provide more peak headroom for the installation.
- Cover the listening area with a pendant layout. The specified dispersion is 108 degrees over the stated 1–4kHz measurement range. Speaker height, spacing, and room acoustics should guide the final layout.
- Adjust the suspension height during installation. The included suspension cable kit provides an adjustable mounting arrangement. Maintain the specified ceiling clearance and use suitable structural attachment points for the installation.
- Protect the internal amplifier. Current, short-circuit, and temperature protection functions respond to abnormal conditions. These safeguards help the integrated speaker manage overloads during operation.
- Order by individual speaker. This part is supplied as one white speaker with its suspension kit. Two individual boxes may be packed in a master carton; that shipping arrangement does not change the single-unit listing.
