The Sonet Acoustic Privacy System is a wall-mounted system that improves office privacy and confidentiality using proven sound masking technology. It reduces the intelligibility of nearby conversations by created a specifically designed acoustic, white noise environment that covers up and masks unwanted noise.
The Sonet system for speech privacy can be installed anywhere in the office, revolutionizing the acoustical treatment of open workspaces. It is as effective as traditional in-ceiling sound-masking systems, but is far easier to install, significantly less expensive and completely portable. The Sonet APS sounds like the gentle whoosh of a high-quality HVAC system. The sound generated is specifically tuned to mask the sound of human voices for maximum privacy at minimum masking volume.
It can be used in individual cubicles for employees who want more privacy, an enclosed office for complete privacy, and open areas, such as waiting rooms, to improve the confidentiality of conversations in nearby offices.
The Sonet can be installed quicky and easily. Additional Sonet bases and emitters can easily be added where more speech privacy is needed, emitters can be moved to new locations to improve the privacy field, and the whole system can be quickly relocated to another space if the occupant moves. The masking sound also greatly reduces other intrusive noises in the workplace, helping everyone concentrate better and feel more relaxed.
The base system is recommended for masking the personal space of one employee. The Sonet is an excellent solution for cubicle type workspaces where there are no walls to contain the masking sound. For enclosed spaces with hard surface walls, use approximately two emitters for each room of up to about 200 square feet, and one additional emitter for each additional 100 square feet.

Placement of the Sonet APS:
The Sonet is used to mask incoming sounds. Therefore, if an individual does not want someone in the hall to overhear a conversation coming from inside an office, the emitters should be placed in the hallway. To prevent individuals in a waiting room from overhearing conversations in a nearby office, the emitters should be placed in the waiting room.
Base System: One sound generator/volume control unit, two sound masking emitters, 6-volt power supply, and mounting hardware.
Extension Kit: Two additional sound masking emitters.
Sonet APS meets HIPAA and GLBA federal guidelines for speech privacy
