An intercom (intercommunication system) is a standalone, closed-circuit system for
one-way “simplex” and/or two-way “duplex” communication. The general purpose of a
professional intercom system is to facilitate simple to complex communication setups
for few to thousands of users who need to be continuously on talk and/or listen
mode. Two-way communications systems can operate in half-duplex or full-duplex. With
half-duplex systems, one party talks while the other party listens. With full-duplex
systems, both parties can talk and listen at the same time as if they are in a natural
conversation in person.
Users who have different roles in a particular operation can be in a conference or
partyline together. Or they can be sub-divided into a matrix of independent groups in
any one or many private intercom channels. In addition to establishing communication
points, an intercom system can also be interfaced with third-party devices such as
2-way radios, 4-wire audios, telephone, TV cameras, AES3 digital audio, relay control
(for signal light activation or door control), etc.
The core technology of an intercom system could be based on one of the following
platforms: 2-wire/analog, 4-wire digital, wireless, or IP networks. The decision to
deploy one platform over the other will greatly depend on requirements, environment
and budget. These intercom platforms operate independently or can be linked to form
a larger system in order to meet specic unique communication workow needs.
Moreover, intercom systems can be bridged together with different communications
systems as part of a multi-platform solution.
In certain applications, intercom systems need to be geographically distributed to
support the various communication positions in a given workow. Therefore, they
can be connected over 2-wire or 4-wire; MADI for close-distance connections such
as oor-to-oor; optical ber for short to long distances within a building; and IP
networks (LAN, WAN, or Internet) for connections across a wide area, across town,
or across the country.
