Intercom with pre-paid 3G communications
Access control specialist Intratone has launched Intracall, a one-way intercom system that includes a pre-paid, 3G communications module with 15 years of unlimited audio communications.
The system, which is easy to install and can operate seven pre-set phone numbers (each allocated to a different time), overcomes one of the major headaches of existing systems that are ‘pay as you go’.
Nicolas Gaine, export sales manager at Intratone, said: “The problem with systems using 3G and SIM cards is what happens once the credit has expired and who is responsible for meeting the ongoing cost.
“In developing Intracall, we have removed this problem completely by providing a pre-paid SIM that lasts for 15 years. Not only does this remove the risk of a new system becoming redundant through lack of funds, but it also brings more certainty and visibility to pricing and future running costs.”
Suited for multi-use and 24/7 premises including car parks, commercial businesses and hospitals, Intracall includes the option to integrate a remote analogue PAL camera to enable operators to both hear and ‘see’ their visitors.
Intratone has also launched a coded keypad that is suitable for gate automation and access control professionals. The keypad comes in an INTRABOX package that includes the coded keypad and a GPRS data module with an integrated RF receiver. Web-based, the code can be changed remotely and at any time.
