RCF P 4228 W - 400W Dual 8-inch Passive 2-Way IP55-Rated Installation Loudspeaker with 110 x 60-Degree Coverage in White Finish

The RCF P 4228 W is a weatherproof, full-range, two-way loudspeaker that offers high-performance sound reinforcement for a variety of professional indoor and outdoor applications. With its powerful output and wide coverage, it is suitable for large venues, parks, stadiums, and other public spaces. The speaker is designed for both individual installation or coupling in array configurations, providing optimal sound clarity and intelligibility across a wide area. Featuring RCF's advanced transducer technology and a robust IP55-rated construction, the P 4228 W is ideal for high-quality audio systems that demand reliability and performance in challenging environments.

The P 4228 W boasts a dual 8" neodymium woofer with a 2.5" voice coil, delivering excellent low-frequency response and clarity. The high-frequency section is equipped with a 1.4" RCF Precision neodymium compression driver with a 2.5" diaphragm assembly. This driver is mounted onto an advanced constant directivity CMD horn, ensuring smooth, even coverage and controlled dispersion. The symmetrical arrangement of the transducers results in well-controlled horizontal dispersion, while the 110° horizontal and 60° vertical coverage ensures that sound reaches the intended audience across a wide area without hot spots or distortion.

Designed for high-output applications, the P 4228 W can handle up to 400W RMS of continuous power, with a peak power handling of 1600W, allowing it to produce a maximum SPL of 129 dB at 1 meter. The speaker's system sensitivity is 97 dB, making it highly efficient and capable of producing clear sound with minimal amplification. The internal crossover operates at 1100 Hz, distributing frequencies between the woofer and compression driver with precision. The dynamic active MOSFET protection ensures that the compression driver is protected from over-driving, which helps prolong the life of the speaker and maintain high performance over time.

To withstand the rigors of outdoor environments, the P 4228 W features a single-piece, low-density polyethylene (PE) rotomolded cabinet that is fully UV-protected, ensuring durability against sun exposure, moisture, and other environmental factors. The IP55-rated cabinet is designed to resist dust and water ingress, making it suitable for both sheltered and exposed locations. The speaker is equipped with 4 M8 brass inserts for secure mounting and a corrosion-resistant AISI 316L stainless steel U-bracket, ensuring easy installation and long-term reliability. The aluminum grille is powder-coated with water-repellent backing material, providing additional protection to the internal components while maintaining acoustic transparency. The rotatable logo plate allows for flexible installation orientations, ensuring the speaker can be positioned as needed.

The P 4228 W is equipped with an Amphenol eco/mat IP67 4-pole connector for secure and watertight connections, ensuring reliable operation even in wet conditions. It also features a built-in 100V line transformer with selectable power options (120W, 60W, 30W), making it suitable for use in constant voltage systems. This versatility allows for seamless integration into professional audio systems that require 100V line operation, while delivering consistent and high-quality sound across various installation environments.

With its combination of high power handling, exceptional sound dispersion, durable construction, and flexible installation options, the RCF P 4228 W is the ideal solution for demanding professional audio applications where reliable, high-quality performance is needed.
