Intercoms

What is an intercom?

An intercom is a professional radio communication system used mainly in the audiovisual, industrial and sports fields. It allows the good coordination of teams during technical operations, guarantees their safety and ensures the good management of events thanks to an instantaneous and clear communication. Unlike a standard walkie-talkie, an intercom can be used in full-duplex, making it easy to use hands-free. A complete intercom kit usually consists of several wireless radio terminals, headsets or earpieces for convenience, a charger/configurator and a hard carrying case.

What are the benefits of VOKKERO intercoms?

The VOKKERO intercoms kits are specifically designed to meet the needs of professionals in noisy environments thanks to their unique features. Their use in full-duplex makes them a practical and functional hands-free communication system. All communications are 100% secure with AES128 digital encryption, ensuring absolute confidentiality and no interference with other systems.

The noise filtering system associated with the voice detection option (VAD) allows you to broadcast and receive only the essential: speech.

In addition, the intercoms offer the capability to compose separate groups and to designate a main group, an indispensable feature in the organization of teamwork.

What are the usecases of an intercom?

Intercom communication systems are mainly used by professionals in the audiovisual sector (theater, festival, studio, TV set...), in industry (nuclear, railway, construction) and in the sports world (field and video refereeing, technical teams).

The intercoms kits are mainly used to ensure the good coordination of the various teams and trades in the event, industrial and sports sectors: sound engineers, stage managers, referees and coaches, SNCF agents, construction workers, firefighters, military... Team leaders can set up their intercom to give each other priority when speaking, and create different work groups so that each team member is only communicating with his team members and does not disturb the others' work.

When should you use an intercom?

An intercom radio communication system can be adapted to several situations:

• Indoor operations and events - the use of a VOKKERO intercom during a show, a sports event or an industrial operation is particularly recommended thanks to the different modes of use. VOKKERO professional audio intercom equipment can be used in all circumstances, from technical support at an event to live refereeing of a sports match.
• Outdoor operations and meetings - VOKKERO intercom systems include several intelligent features for optimized communication in noise environments. In addition to a patented noise filter to suppress unwanted noise, the VAD (Voice Activity Detector) option only opens the microphone if the algorithm detects a human voice. This allows hands-free operation without noise pollution.
