Clear-Com has revealed new software updates to its award-winning Arcadia Central Station, making it one of the most powerful and flexible 1RU intercom solutions on the market, enabling connectivity across parent and third-party Dante/AES67 devices.
Arcadia Central Station is the leader in scalable, IP-based intercom by seamlessly integrating wired and wireless systems across digital, analog, Dante/AES67, and Clear-Com’s I.V. Direct.
The latest enhancements include support for V-Series IrisX Panels & 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, making this a true game changer. 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,” said Dave MacKinnon, VP of Product Management of Clear-Com. “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, all in a 1RU device.”
Arcadia’s robust architecture supports nearly any operating environment, on analog XLR, IP networks, or fibre, and accommodates wireless across 1.9 GHz, 2.4 GHz, and 5 GHz spectrums. Many different industries including broadcast studios, houses of worship, live theatres and sports arena users can deploy sophisticated, multi-channel communications without the need for traditional matrix frames. As with all of Clear-Com’s products, it integrates seamlessly with other equipment to facilitate seamless productions with an easy setup and intuitive controls.
