New wireless intercom system


Speak easy: The


FreeSpeak II Dect- based duplex


wireless intercom system


Clear-Com By Heather McLean


The launch of the FreeSpeak II wireless intercom system, an enhanced DECT-based offering that operates in multiple license-free DECT bands from 1.897-1.933GHz, has been announced by Clear- Com. FreeSpeak II delivers


improved roaming capability for reliable wireless connections, superior digital sound for intelligibility and audio comfort, and intercom features that make


it a high performance wireless option.


The system is ideal for deployment across the large scale, multi-zone production areas typically required in live events, broadcast and sports production. FreeSpeak II allows large numbers of wireless beltpack users to simultaneously roam across an expansive production area without compromising on performance. Similar to its predecessor, FreeSpeak II can be implemented as a standalone base station wireless system or as an integrated wireless solution


within Eclipse HX matrices, known as FreeSpeak II Integra.


When using the base


station, up to 20 full-duplex wireless beltpacks can be connected; in an integrated matrix setup, as many as 50 full-duplex wireless beltpacks can be used at the same time by strategically placing 10 or more distributed remote antennas to create an expansive coverage zone. These beltpack users are then able to directly communicate with any other remote or local matrix panel or other wireless or wired beltpack user who is on the Eclipse HX Matrix


System network. FreeSpeak II uses the existing base station from its predecessor that has been updated to work with the new beltpacks and new active antennas.


Ergonomically positioned


controls, intuitive operation and rugged housing make the beltpack ideal for extended use under harsh conditions. Beltpacks are IP-65 rated for


water and dust resistance for mobile productions and the Li- Ion battery for the beltpack can last over 18 hours on a full charge. 10.D29


Introducing licence- free transcoding ATX Networks


By Monica Heck


A licence-free professional quality transcoding platform, which is described as delivering high quality video at minimal bit rates, is making its IBC debut.


The non licence-based


VersAtivePro aims to address the challenges associated with switching functionality from HD to SD transcoding or vice-versa, migrating from primary to redundant units or completely reconfiguring transcoders. VersAtivePro devices can be managed through ATX’s Video Management System (VMS), which provides users with centralised, clusterable control of video services run though VersAtivePro units. The VMS provides a single UI for managing multiple units and enables the operator to implement multiple redundancy schemas, automated system backups and secure system


administration to northbound management systems. 14.G16
