Harrisburg, PA, April 2, 2008 - On-Q/Legrand, the leader in home systems, announced today that its Cat 5e
Selective Call Intercom System is now available for sale. On-Q’s
Selective Call system provides homeowners with unprecedented flexibility and
convenience in home communication. It combines the high standards of
quality On-Q/Legrand is known for with a price that’s affordable for
homebuyers.
The Selective Call Intercom System enables homeowners to communicate with
the entire home using the "page all" feature or selectively and
privately call directly from one room to another. The system also features
a "hands-free reply," so individuals can respond to a page without
pressing a button. Accommodating up to 32 locations, this revolutionary
intercom remains easy to use from any location due to its high resolution color
LCD interface. The interface allows the user to enter customized room
names, and features dynamic sorting of rooms which moves the most frequently
called room to the top of the list.
The Selective Call Intercom System can support three simultaneous conversations,
allowing users to communicate throughout the home in an entirely new way. For
example, homeowners can monitor the baby’s room, call another child for
dinner and page all remaining rooms at the same time. Each unit features
an innovative, high-quality microphone and speaker which provides clear, static-free
sound. In addition, users can select unique, digital door tones as opposed
to traditional chimes.
"On-Q/Legrand has re-invented the intercom category with the Selective
Call Intercom System by adding highly innovative features and benefits not
previously available on the market," said Bill Bruggemeier, product manager
for On-Q/Legrand. "This system provides unprecedented convenience for
both homeowners and installers."
The Selective Call Intercom is based off of On-Q’s new Q-Link Communications
Protocol. This revolutionary protocol enables the system to auto-discover
all units, streamlining the installation process. Remote units in the
home beep for identification during initial set up, allowing the installer
to accurately name locations without traveling from room to room. In addition,
the system features a self-healing capability which causes de-activated units
to drop off without hindering the performance of the rest of the system.
Additional installation features include:
- Local mute and monitor
- Modular and scalable – System grows up to 32 rooms or locations by
cascading eight location modules.
- Variable hands-free reply time – Installers can increase or
decrease the hands-free reply system to meet customer preferences.
