Product Overview
Built for outdoor public address applications, the Hikvision DS-QAZ1307G1-E is a 7W PoE network horn speaker designed to deliver voice broadcast, paging and audio notification across open or semi-exposed areas in compatible IP network audio systems. Featuring IP67 weather protection, the horn speaker format suits exposed mounting positions at gates, car parks, loading docks, warehouse yards, school grounds and industrial perimeter points. Equipped with PoE connectivity, a single network cable carries both power and data, reducing the need for separate power infrastructure at each speaker location. It also supports two-way audio in compatible system configurations, adding interactive communication capability for suitable paging and response workflows. This makes it a practical endpoint for any compatible IP PA system requiring weatherproof outdoor audio coverage with network-based control and two-way interaction.
Key Capabilities
7W Horn Audio Output
The horn speaker format channels 7W of audio output toward a specific direction, helping project voice announcements and warning messages across larger open areas such as yards, car parks and loading zones more effectively than wide-dispersion speaker types.
PoE Single-Cable Installation
PoE support means a compatible network switch or injector can deliver both power and data through one network cable run, simplifying deployment at outdoor locations where separate power cabling would otherwise be required at each speaker position.
Two-Way Audio Support
In compatible system configurations, the DS-QAZ1307G1-E supports two-way audio, enabling talkback and interactive communication at the speaker location. This adds value at entry points, gates and access zones requiring response capability beyond one-way broadcast.
IP67 Weather Protection
IP67 protection means the speaker is rated against full dust ingress and temporary water immersion. This makes it suitable for outdoor mounting in exposed environments including car parks, yards and industrial perimeter locations subject to rain and dust.
IP Network Audio Integration
As a network audio speaker, the DS-QAZ1307G1-E integrates with compatible IP public address systems for centrally managed broadcast, zoned paging and scheduled announcements rather than requiring a traditional analogue amplifier and speaker line.
Best For
- Outdoor Network PA Systems: Suited to compatible IP public address deployments requiring outdoor horn speaker endpoints for voice broadcast and paging.
- Car Parks, Gates and Loading Areas: The horn speaker format and IP67 rating suit exposed vehicle entry points, perimeter gates and loading dock zones requiring directed audio output.
- Industrial and Warehouse Yards: Practical for outdoor yard areas and high-noise operational environments where announcements need to project across distance.
- Two-Way Communication Points: Useful where the PA system needs both broadcast messaging and supported interactive response at a specific outdoor location.
Why Choose the DS-QAZ1307G1-E
The DS-QAZ1307G1-E stands out from standard indoor or ceiling network speakers through its combination of horn speaker projection, IP67 weather protection and PoE connectivity in a single outdoor-rated device. A basic network ceiling speaker would not withstand exposed outdoor conditions or deliver the directional audio throw that the horn format provides. The 7W rated power, combined with the horn design, makes the DS-QAZ1307G1-E better suited to announcing across yards, car parks and perimeter zones than compact pendant or cabinet speakers rated for sheltered use. Two-way audio support also means this speaker can serve interactive communication points, not just one-way broadcast locations. Available at Security Wholesalers, the DS-QAZ1307G1-E should be selected after confirming PoE switch capacity, outdoor cabling routes, mounting position, speaker direction, audio zone layout and whether the host system supports the two-way audio and network audio protocols the device requires.
Buyer Decision Tips
System Compatibility Tip: The DS-QAZ1307G1-E requires a compatible IP network audio system. Confirm that the host platform supports PoE network horn speakers and that the PoE switch or injector provides enough budget for each speaker on the run. If the existing setup uses a traditional analogue amplifier, this network speaker is not a direct replacement and an analogue horn speaker would be required instead.
Placement and Coverage Tip: Horn speakers project audio in a focused direction rather than dispersing it evenly in all directions. Plan the mounting position and horn orientation carefully relative to the area to be covered. In larger open yards or wide car parks, multiple units with overlapping coverage zones may be required to achieve even audio distribution across the full area.

Ideal Use Cases
Outdoor PA Endpoints
Deploy as an outdoor horn speaker endpoint in a compatible IP PA system where voice broadcast, paging and scheduled announcements need to reach open external areas from a weatherproof speaker position.
Car Park and Perimeter Audio
The IP67 rating and horn format suit vehicle entry points, car parks and perimeter zones where the speaker will be exposed to weather and needs to project audio toward approaching vehicles or personnel.
Loading Docks and Warehouse Yards
Useful in outdoor yard and loading dock environments where background noise and open space require a directional horn speaker to project announcements and operational messages to staff and drivers.
School and Public Facility Grounds
Practical for outdoor areas at schools, recreation facilities and public sites where a network-managed horn speaker is needed for outdoor broadcast and emergency messaging.
Interactive Communication Points
Where a compatible system supports two-way audio workflows, the DS-QAZ1307G1-E can serve as both a broadcast speaker and a communication point at gates, entries and access control locations requiring operator response capability.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You need a PoE network horn speaker with 7W rated power, IP67 weather protection and two-way audio support for outdoor public address use in a compatible IP network audio system.
- Choose a different speaker if: The installation requires an indoor ceiling speaker, indoor cabinet speaker, pendant speaker, analogue horn speaker, higher wattage output, or a non-network audio solution using a traditional amplifier and speaker line.
- Check before ordering: Confirm the host IP network audio system supports this speaker, that PoE switch capacity is sufficient, that outdoor cabling can be protected for the full run, and that the horn speaker format and 7W output suit the intended coverage area and ambient noise level at the installation site.
FAQs
- What is the DS-QAZ1307G1-E designed to do?
The DS-QAZ1307G1-E is a 7W PoE network horn speaker for outdoor public address applications. It is designed to deliver voice broadcast, paging and warning messages across open or semi-exposed areas as part of a compatible IP network audio system, with IP67 weather protection for external installation.
