We know intercom

Flexible Configurability

No matter what the purpose is for the communications system– permanent or temporary, as the core or complementary system, Clear-Com systems and their components can operate as a stand-alone system or seamlessly integrated as a larger system for every event.

Clear-Com Solutions For:

Permanent Venue Installation

Depending on size and requirements of the venue, a HelixNet digital partyline system may be the ideal starter system that works over IP networks and highly extensible to other 4-wire and audio systems. For a larger permanent installation, the Eclipse HX systems would be considered for greater flexibility in configuration and user control options such as IP-enabled V-Series panels, soft-panels such as Agent-IC mobile app, and FreeSpeak II integrated wireless intercom. If transporting audio, intercom or video signals are required through the venue, then ProGrid or BroaMan solutions are fitted for the task. Any two-way radio integration or SIP system interfacing could be achieved with Clear-Com Gateway solution.

Temporary Deployment

Certain games or events may have special communication requirements, unmet by the venue’s house intercom system. For mobile communications by roaming users, a stand- alone FreeSpeak II in 2.4GHz or 1.9GHz band is ideal for venues with many WiFi or 2.4GHz devices. Agent-IC is a cost-effective means for temporarily extending the reach of Eclipse HX matrix to a larger group of remote users with Agent-IC on smart phones or tablets around the venue. LQ Series IP Interfaces are very handy portable throw-down boxes for linking the house system with any visiting 2-wire, 4-wire, IP or SIP device securely over the LAN, WAN or Internet.

Event Coordination

Entertainment prior to the start of games or during half-time breaks are common at every sports venue. There is the dependence on effective intercom to quickly and efficiently coordinate production staff to ensure everything is working smoothly. Clear-Com’s HelixNet Digital Partyline Intercom provides reliable group communications functionality and flexible setup that you require with a digital infrastructure. With so many moving parts both on- and off-stage, untethered mobility necessary for certain production roles. Our DX410 or FreeSpeak II offers the best sound and performance in wireless intercom solutions.
