• Ensure uniform coverage of HSS audio in installed spaces
– Goal is approximately 2xRadius of Coverage based on 86-degree Linear Dispersion at 2kHz
• Provide prescriptive recommendations for both in-tile and pendant speaker layout (X-ft. tall ceiling à Y-ft. spacing layout)
– Remove burden of calculating coverage and determining overall coverage pattern
– Simplify guidelines
• Provide instructions for speaker placement near walls/windows/obstacles
• Provide minimum and maximum speaker heights for both types
HSS R2 SPEAKER SPACING & GUIDELINES
GOALS
© 2019 Plantronics Inc. All rights reserved. 38
• HSS R2 IN-TILE SPEAKER SPACING
– Square spacing is necessary for Soundscaping (rectangular not allowed)
– Speakers are placed in center of 2’x2’ (600mm x 600mm) ceiling tile
– Speakers are placed off-center in 2’x4’ (600mm x 1200mm) ceiling tile to allow for even spacing in all directions

• HSS R2 PENDANT SPEAKER SPACING
– Pendant speakers are not beholden to ceiling height because there is not an acoustic tile ceiling at
a fixed height.
– This allows more flexibility for speaker height/placement
à Recommending a minimum 10-ft height (when possible) for pendant speakers

• Speakers can be placed up to 2’ (600mm) away from ideal location due to conflicts in the ceiling– (We recognize that ideal placement cannot always occur due to existing lights, sensors, sprinklers, etc.)
• Speakers near walls & windows should be placed approximately half the distance of the ceiling height away from walls and windows, and no closer than closer than 2’ (600mm) away walls or windows

• 14-ft. is Maximum Allowable Height for ALL HSS R2 Loudspeakers
– Engineering has not yet evaluated spaces with very tall ceilings
– Acoustic tile ceilings this tall are rare but it can happen
– Spaces without ceilings allow speaker height to be wherever customer/architect desires (within our recommended guidelines)
• Caution is advised at short acoustic tile ceilings (<8.5-ft)
• If possible, do not allow pendant speakers below 10-ft
