The Industry’s Loudest, Most Intelligible AHD for its
Size & Weight LRAD Corporation’s LRAD 450XL is the
communication industry’s loudest, most intelligible
acoustic hailing device (AHD) for its size and weight.
Low profile, lightweight and designed for temporary
or fixed mounting on tripods, vehicles and vessels, the
LRAD 450XL uses an enhanced, patent pending technology
to generate the audio output of a unit almost twice
its size and weight with the same high level of clarity
and intelligibility consistent with the LRAD product
line. The LRAD 450XL is easily transported to provide a
highly effective, long range communication and warning
capability where required, and is rapidly being adopted
for public safety and national defense applications
around the world. Featuring LRAD’s optimized driver
and waveguide technology, the LRAD 450XL ensures
every broadcast cuts through wind, engine and background
noise and is clearly heard and understood even
inside vehicles and buildings. Through the use of live
or pre-recorded multilingual voice messages and alert
tones, LRAD systems establish large safety zones, unequivocally
determine intent, favorably resolve uncertain
situations and save lives on both sides of the Long
Range Acoustic Device ® . The LRAD 450XL provides
highly intelligible communication up to 1,700 meters
and safely communicates beyond standoff distances to
determine intent, create an instant acoustic standoff
perimeter, and provide time for appropriate responses.
The LRAD 450XL also uses variable beam width for extended
coverage, providing clear, long range, directional
