Company Clear-Com® has announced the launch of FreeSpeak Cell™. It is a wireless intercom system that uses LTE and 5G infrastructure to support communications during large-scale production.

FreeSpeak Cell is designed to work over public and private LTE and 5G networks, enabling full-duplex wireless communications over wide geographic areas without the need for traditional radio frequency coordination. FreeSpeak Cell is a direct response to the growing congestion of UHF, DECT and Wi-Fi bands, especially in large venues and high-density live event environments.

Unlike traditional wireless intercom systems, which are limited by local spectrum and physical coverage boundaries, FreeSpeak Cell uses cellular networks to support communications over much larger areas with fewer on-site components. „FreeSpeak Cell represents a shift in the manufacturing approach to wireless intercoms,” - said Bob Boster, president of Clear-Com. „We are leveraging carrier-grade cellular infrastructure for professional communications, increasing both scale and coverage.”.

Designed for large facilities and complex productions

FreeSpeak Cell is designed for large-scale applications and distributed environments where conventional wireless systems may face channel, coverage or spectrum coordination limitations.

The system supports deployments involving 100 or more beltpack transceivers and can scale to hundreds of users depending on network configuration. Because it operates over LTE and 5G networks, coverage can extend beyond the boundaries of a single building or complex, enabling communication across vast terrains or dispersed production areas.
