ALAMEDA, USA – MARCH 12, 2015 — At this year’s International Wireless Communication Expo (IWCE) in Las Vegas, Clear-Com® , the leader in real-time communication and connectivity solutions, announced the launch of its new Clear-Com Gateway family. The modular CG-X1 and CG-X4 devices are built on a flexible and cost-effective platform for linking and bridging disparate communication systems such as IP networks, telephone networks, radios and intercom systems, for highly-coordinated, critical operations. Clear-Com Gateway is the ideal interoperability solution for immediate on-site communication across different frequencies for government, military, public safety agencies and many other applications.
“We’re excited to bring the new Clear-Com Gateway platform devices to market with features that are easy to use and exclusive to Clear-Com,” said Craig Fredrickson, Product Management at Clear-Com. “Gateway allows immediate, reliable and cost-effective communication across disparate communications systems, ensuring critical information can be shared.”
Clear-Com Gateway combines advanced radio interface technology for analog and digital radios with a suite of programmable features to meet the most demanding radio and Land Mobile Radio (LMR) applications. Gateway bridges radio channels across different radio platforms, port-to-port, port-to-multi-port and Radio-over-IP (RoIP), enabling cross-communication between different frequencies. In addition, as the radio market continues to move to Digital Radios and 4G LTE, Gateway devices can link to these digital radio networks via SIP and the Digital Radio Module which allow analog-to-digital and digital-to-digital bridging and conferencing on one platform.
Clear-Com Gateway devices also have built-in SIP interface capability. Standards-based IP interfacing for Voice-over-IP (VoIP), Radio-over-IP (RoIP), Unicast, Multicast and SIP applications are supported for connectivity and interoperability. When connected to Clear-Com intercom systems, the 4-wire port signalling capability can activate features and trigger radios and SIP telephone access becomes available within Clear-Com systems.
The CG-X1 is the 2-port option for remote sites and single-channel bridging. The CG-X4 carries a higher port density of 8 ports in a small form factor, with the possibility of up to 16 ports in total in a 1RU (rack-unit) space.
Clear-Com’s line of new and enhanced products will be available for demonstration at IWCE 2015 on Booth N2134, including the popular FreeSpeak II digital wireless intercom system, the HME DX300ES and the successful HelixNet partyline intercom system.
