The Bluetooth speaker connects wirelessly to phones, tablets and laptops, streaming audio through a 40mm driver mounted behind a perforated steel grille on the faceplate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for kitchens, bedrooms, hotel rooms and home offices where streaming audio and power are both needed at counter or desk height, the unit eliminates the need for a separate portable speaker. The Bluetooth connection is controlled by a dedicated button on the faceplate, and the speaker supports playback via Alexa and other voice assistants. The dual USB ports provide 5V DC at 2.4A shared output, sufficient to charge two phones or one tablet simultaneously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 430 stainless steel faceplate is finished in brushed chrome with a directional grain that softens reflections under kitchen lighting and pairs with stainless steel appliances and chrome taps. The white insert behind the faceplate conceals the back of the cover plate and provides a clean edge to the socket and USB apertures. The unit is ErP Ready, drawing less than 0.5W in standby when the Bluetooth connection is inactive, and carries EMC, LVD and RED compliance for electromagnetic compatibility, low voltage safety and radio equipment standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e89mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e149.3mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e31.4mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15.7mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecessed Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15.7mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.

The integrated speaker and electronics require more space than a standard socket, so deeper back boxes (35-47mm) are recommended where possible to allow clearance for wiring and the rear-mounted speaker magnet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the Bluetooth connection work?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe speaker pairs with Bluetooth-enabled devices in the standard way.
