Harrisburg, PA, June 30, 2008 - On-Q/Legrand, the leader in home systems, announced today that it has exceeded
annual sales goal for the Cat 5e Selective Call Intercom System in less than
three months. Sales of the award-winning Selective Call Intercom System,
which began shipping in April, have surpassed expectations due to the product’s
superior quality, easy installation and elegant design.
“We designed the Selective Call Intercom System with the needs of both
installers and homeowners as our top priority,” said Bill Bruggemeier,
product manager for On-Q/Legrand. “Its early success substantiates
our goal to create unprecedented functionality and convenience for our customers.”
Popular features of the Selective Call Intercom System include a high-resolution
color LCD interface with customizable room names; the ability to support three
separate conversations simultaneously; “page all” functionality
to communicate with the entire house; and a “hands-free reply” setting
to respond without pressing a button. The system also recently won an
Innovative Housing Technology Award in the “Networking” category.
The Selective Call Intercom is based upon On-Q’s new Q-Link Communications
Protocol, which enables the system to auto-discover all units, streamlining
the installation process. During initial set up, remote units in the
home beep for identification, allowing the installer to accurately name locations
without traveling from room to room. Additionally, 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.
Beyond its functionality, the Selective Call Intercom System offers an innovative
design that accentuates the décor of a home. The system is available
as part of the Studio Collection, On-Q’s globally-inspired line of products
that combine innovative technology with inspired design. The Studio Collection
includes a suite of wall plates and devices in 17 bold colors with a screwless
finish and titanium edging.
Additional installation features include:
- Ability to dynamically rank customized room names according to frequency
called
- Innovative, high-quality microphone and speaker for clear, static-free
sound
- 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.
- Unique, digital door tone options
- Structured wiring-based – System requires only a single run
of Cat 5 to each location
- Common mounting hardware – Locations mount in standard two-gang
electrical box or low voltage bracket.
