Clear-Com has expanded the capabilities of its Arcadia Central Station with software updates to support the full Clear-Com product ecosystem, enabling connectivity across Clear-Com products as well as third-party Dante/AES67 devices.
Arcadia Central Station is an IP-based intercom integrating wired and wireless systems across digital, analogue, Dante/AES67 and Clear-Com’s I.V. Direct. The enhancements include support for V-Series IrisX Panels and flexible port allocation.
Users can now connect up to 32 V-Series IrisX panels directly to Arcadia, enabling high-density keypanel workflows traditionally reserved for expensive and complex matrix systems. Port allocation flexibility also lets operators balance HelixNet digital partyline and I.V. Direct connections as needed, for the flexibility to suit almost any workflow.
‘With this release, Arcadia moves beyond party line communications into a true communications hub,’ says Clear-Com VP of Product Management, Dave MacKinnon. ‘It’s a complete communications solution that grows with customer needs, integrates easily into existing infrastructures, and supports everything from partyline to IP matrix keypanels.’
Arcadia’s architecture supports nearly any operating environment, on analogue XLR, IP networks or fibre, and accommodates wireless across the 1.9GHz, 2.4GHz and 5GHz spectra. With it, industries including broadcast studios, houses of worship, live theatres and sports arena users can deploy sophisticated, multichannel communications without the need for traditional matrix frames. As with all of Clear-Com’s products, it integrates with other equipment to facilitate productions with an easy set-up and intuitive control.
