Linear Communications Solutions

Then... Now...

Say “intercom,” and most people think of “tinny” sound and inconsistent performance…

Those days are long gone!

Today, Linear’s communication and whole-house music distribution systems deliver
true sound for music and voice. This catalog showcases elegant and sophisticated
acoustical systems that deliver quality sound throughout the home. They also ensure
peace of mind with enhanced security and room monitoring features.

For more than 50 years, a company named M&S Systems has been the leading
designer and manufacturer of fi ne systems for home communication and entertainment.
These products revolutionized home communications with technology, style, and
value. That company is now part of Linear, where the legacy of quality in design and
development continues on.

Systems for new installations using Cat-5 wire

Linear’s DMC1 Music/Communications System offers much more than just good looks.
Designed for today’s home, the DMC1 offers the homeowner the ability to communicate
and monitor up to 15 rooms and supply digitally-tuned AM/FM radio to each of those
rooms. The new iPlay® Dock - MP3 & CD changer accessory can fi ll the home or patio
with your digital collection of music, whether from your portable device, smartphone, or
MP3 media.

Linear’s DMC-10 Structured Wire Intercom System takes advantage of today’s modern
homebuilding standard, a central wiring cabinet that provides a “structure” for all low­voltage signal distribution in the home. This hub-based intercom system features room,
door, and patio stations in contemporary designs, crafted to blend into the installation’s
decor.

Systems for 3-wire, 4-wire, and 6-wire retrofi t installations

Linear’s DMC3-4 offers many of the same features as the DMC1, but it is engineered to
run on existing wires. The DMC3-4 will replace most older 3-wire or 4-wire intercoms
(use DMC1 for 6-wire retrofi ts). Unique retrofi t fi nish-out frames make installation easy by
eliminating the need to repair drywall. The DMC3-4 retrofi t also offers an option to add
the DMC1 iPlay® Dock, or 6-disc CD changer.

from Linear furnishes rich sound for music and voice throughout the home.

DMC series is a sound fi t – offering many features for both the homeowner and the installer.

Systems, NuTone, and many other intercoms, without the
need to repair drywall.

For new homes, Linear offers the DMC1 Music/Communication

DMC-10 Intercom Kit

DMC10-KIT

Structured Wire Intercom Kit

Linear’s new DMC-10 structured wire intercom
system brings robust functionality, installation
simplicit y, and fast and easy expandability to
multi-room / whole-house communications.
Leveraging a structured wiring methodology and
design, the DMC-10 is easy to install and easy to use.

The heart of the system is the Model DMC-10H
Structured Wire Intercom Hub. The system hub is
designed to be grid-mounted inside a structured
wiring enclosure (not included, Linear H312KIT or
H318 recommended). Up to eight room, door, and
patio stations in any combination can be connected
to the system hub using up to 500 feet of standard
CAT-5 cable for each station. For larger installations,
a second system hub can be added for expansion,
providing a total system capacit y of up to 16 stations.

The Model DMC-10AWP Audio Input Wall Plate can
also be added to the system to connect an external
audio source (such as a CD or MP3 player) for
distribution throughout the intercom system. The
room, door, and patio stations showcase a sleek,
modern design, crafted to blend smoothly into the
installation’s decor. Black, almond, and a variety of
metallic fi nish faceplates are available to further
customize each installation. When in use, room
station keypads illuminate with soft blue indicators.

The door and patio station keys are back-lit with
white lighting for easy nighttime operation. Room and
patio stations support several useful features: Privacy
mute disables the station’s microphone to prevent
monitoring from other stations. The do-not-disturb
feature disables the station’s microphone and
speaker to prevent monitoring and interruption.
Hands-free reply lets the person called respond
without having to press any room station keys.

Room, patio, and door stations mount inside standard
2-gang junction boxes making them easy to install
and wire. Each station and the system hub contain
color-coded Type 110 punch-down terminal blocks for
fast and reliable connection to CAT-5 cable. A choice
of three door chime sounds is available for each door
station connected.

For interior stations, use the Model DMC-10RS Room
Stations. For exterior stations, use the Model
DMC-10PS Patio Stations and the Model DMC-10DS
Door Stations. A 12-volt switching power supply is
required with each intercom hub, and is included
with the DMC-10KIT. A 3-amp-rated integral door
release relay is built into each system hub, which
enables remote activation of door release devices,
such as Linear’s optional Model DRW Door Release
Mechanism, from any station.
