CellCom Digital Wireless Begins Shipping

News Release: April 19, 2004

Clear-Com Communication Systems will be demonstrating the CellCom digital wireless intercom system at their booth at NAB 2004. Systems begin shipping to international customers in early May, 2004.

CellCom combines digital transmission with an intelligent base station that interconnects with wired communications, such as party-line and digital matrix systems. The system operates above the UHF television bands, and is license-free in over 100 countries. CellCom allows users to go beyond the typical party-line or even two-channel capability of conventional wireless—enabling one-to-one and small-group conversations initiated from the beltpack!

The intelligent 1-RU base station supports up to ten full-duplex wireless beltpacks, and two bases can be joined to make larger systems. The rear panel interfaces with two channels of wired party-line and four channels of 4-wire/digital matrix intercom. The base supports up to ten active transceiver/antennas, which can be remoted up to 1,000 meters from the base to create large, customized communications zones for the beltpacks.

The powerful and stylish beltpacks feature a display and two push-to talk level controls. Up to six communications routes per beltpack can be programmed and used with any combination of the available wired and wireless users. Programming is done at the base station, using the rotary encoder and menus on the display.

The CellCom digital wireless intercom adds unrivaled communications capabilities to any party-line or digital matrix system.
