Clear-Com LQ-R2W4-4W4 8 Channel 4-Wire and Partyline IP Interface

The LQ-R2W4-4W4 from Clear-Com is an 8-Port 1RU Panel for Both Partyline and 4-Wire Interfacing. This multi-interface unit facilitates IP communications for extension of up to 4 ports of 4-wire and 4 channels of 2-wire, simultaneously over any IP network (LAN, WAN & Internet). The LQ-R2W4-4W4 supports eight channels of audio and signaling which can be routed to up to five other LQ units. You can link over IP into Eclipse frames via IVC-32-HX and HelixNet via a HLI-ET2 module, with licensable hosting of up to 8 Agent-IC clients and 8 lines of IP telephony (SIP) per unit.

The general purpose of the Clear-Com LQ interfaces is to connect and route signals from multiple intercom systems and audio devices from point-to-point or point-to-multi-point, virtually anywhere over the secure IP network. 2-wire partyline and 4-wire digital devices such as Clear-Com’s or any industry-standard intercom system break away from traditional cabling and take advantage of available IP infrastructure for connecting to other 2-wire systems.

Need to add an intercom user position across campus and in the next town? Just interface your existing 2-wire partyline system, regardless of brand, to a 4-wire solution such as Clear-Com’s HelixNet partyline or Agent-IC mobile app using the LQ-R2W4-4W4 devices. Once devices are networked together with the Core Configuration Manager, the open communication link between these devices will allow everyone on the intercom network to talk or listen, depend on the configuration.
