Optocore launches generic intercom interfaces at pl+s 2013

At Prolight + Sound Show 2013 in Frankfurt, Optocore launched two expansions to its series of intercom interfaces — following the development of proprietary intercom systems for various OEM partners. The new generic X6R-FX-INTERCOM-IC444 and V3R-FX-INTERCOM-IC444 interfaces' nomenclature is derived from the IC444 board, which is equipped with two 37-pole connectors — one male, the other female — and provides four line Inputs, four line outputs and 4 GPIO. The X6R-FX can be equipped with two IC444 boards while the V3R-FX can be equipped with a single IC444 board.
These latest solutions are the result of fulfilling a custom request from Norwegian state broadcaster, NRK. On that occasion Optocore’s sister company, BroaMan, populated the 4LI/4LO board with four GPIOs to enable bidirectional communication — but provided SDI enhancement, to allow camera signals to be routed via a single fibre connection to an OB vehicle and be uplinked to the broadcast centre with monitor picture transmitted to the speaker in the opposite direction.
“This version of the Intercom device with the reduced channel count (4/4) is a highly cost effective option for permanent installation and broadcast applications. Additionally it offers the GPI/ GPO connections, which adds further value to the new product,” says Tine Helmle, Director of Sales and Marketing.
Due to the success of this, Optocore have now produced the two audio-based intercom equivalents. The main features of the X6R-FX-INTERCOM-IC444 are eight line Inputs; eight line outputs; eight GPI; eight GPO with relay; auxiliary power outputs for external circuits. The V3R-FX-INTERCOM-IC444 features half of the in/outputs.
