8. Assembly and connection
8.1. Assembly of mounts (accessories)
Various mounts are available from the “Pan Accessories” range for installing the loudspeaker on walls
and ceilings
--> see chapter 16 “Mounts”.
The installation and commissioning of loudspeakers must only be carried out by quali ed personnel.
Ensure that the mount chosen corresponds to the requirements on the wall or ceiling structure, along
with operating requirements.
National safety regulations for operation and assembly must be followed.
CONNECTION WITH THE BUILDING STRUCTURE
• It must be ensured that the ceiling/wall area where the device is to be installed is structurally
suitable.
• The mount must lie fl at on the surface of the building structure. The surface must not show any
settlement eff ects even in the long term.
• For a safe and durable connection, plug and screw connections must be dimensioned according to
the acting forces that may occur through lever eff ects.
• In case of doubt as to the type and composition of the building structure, consult a structural engineer.
CONNECTION OF THE LOUDSPEAKER AND MOUNT
• All mounts sourced via Pan Acoustics for the Pan AMT series are delivered with suitable installation
material for connection with the loudspeaker.
• The connection between the loudspeaker and the mount is made by a  xing point (e.g. a slot nut,

The low impedance variant of the loudspeaker P 04-AMT | RJ is equipped with an RJ45 socket with
high electrical and mechanical load capacity at the back. The contacts of the RJ45 socket are wired in
such a way that 4 wires of a network cable are combined for low-impedance signal transmission. This
connection variant permits to connect the loudspeaker to power ampli ers with corresponding socket
and assignment using 23 AWG or 24 AWG network cables. Alternatively, an adapter cable is available
to operate the loudspeaker with DSP power ampli ers that do not have an RJ45-compatible port.
The U-bracket can be swivelled from the centre
to the left and right by 110° each. To adjust the
set angle, hand-tighten the screws connecting
the U-bracket to the lids.

8.3. Important notice regarding the network cable and ampli er power
8.3.1. Permissible cable cross sections and lengths
8.3.2. RJ pin assignment
The following information is to ensure the safe operation of the loudspeaker with power ampli ers.
The maximum cable lengths and cable cross sections that may be used are indicated below.
Pan Acoustics loudspeakers have a high effi ciency. Due to the high sensitivity of the systems, a con-
siderable sound pressure can already be generated from little applied power. The RJ variants of the
loudspeakers therefore do not have to be driven to the maximum in order to produce a sound level
that is suffi cient for the room, e.g. in conference applications.
Network cables are not suitable for transmitting high currents. It is therefore important to adjust the
power of the DSP power ampli er to the conditions, max. 20 watts (programme) / 60 watts (peak).
Cables have an electrical resistance and can heat up considerably depending on the cable cross
section. To prevent a cable  re, the cross section of the cable must be suffi ciently dimensioned.
WARNING

CAT5e or CAT6 cables are suitable for adapted power transmission if their cross sections correspond
to 23 AWG or 24 AWG cables. Shielded cables are NOT required.
For optimum power transmission, only use cables with copper cores.
NOTICE
8.3.3. RJ adapter
CAT cable cross section Cable length (1 dB attenuation) Cable length (1 dB attenuation)
22 AWG (0.326 mm²) 36 m @ 8 ohms 72 m @ 4 ohms
23 AWG (0.258 mm²) 28 m @ 8 ohms 56 m @ 4 ohms
24 AWG (0.205 mm²) 22 m @ 8 ohms 44 m @ 4 ohms
The maximum cable length (24 AWG cable) between the power ampli er and the loudspeaker with RJ
socket should not exceed the length of 100 m @ 4 ohms and 60 m @ 8 ohms.
The contacts of the loudspeaker’s RJ socket are wired in such a way that 4 wires (blue/brown) and 4
wires (green/orange) are combined to one wire (+) and one wire (-). This assignment results in no
polarity reversal when using a crossed network cable.
For connection to a DSP power ampli er that is not equipped with a correspondingly assigned RJ
socket, but e.g. with a 2-pin connection terminal, an adapter with Keystone socket is available.
