Bluesound BCS300 Professional Network Streaming Ceiling Speaker
The BCS300 is a seamlessly integrated, all-in-one in-ceiling or hanging pendant speaker solution featuring a built-in music streamer and amplifier. Using power over ethernet technology, it efficiently delivers audio to its desired destination in a discreet and simplified manner, requiring only a single ethernet cable connection to deliver both power and network connection. Unlike traditional setups, this decentralized solution eliminates the need for an audio rack, functioning as an independent unit. Moreover, its flush mounted design allows it to seamlessly blend with any interior design or décor. Its high-performance build includes a UL 2043 plenum rating, fully certifying it for commercial installation. The optional pendant kit allows the BCS300 to be ceiling suspended and allows positioning of speakers at a lower height if there is nothing available to mount it at a typical height, especially in the case of exposed ceilings. Based on the award-winning BluOS multi-room platform, the BCS300 enables multi-zone control, speaker grouping and integrated networked music streaming from Bluesound Professional’s business music partners: SOUNDMACHINE, Qsic, Custom Channels, SiriusXM for Business and Tunify.
