Intercom upgrade / retrofit solutions for Homes and Apartments
As technology rapidly develops, residents are looking for more advanced features in their intercom systems. However, old buildings often do not have data network wiring in place to install IP-based intercom system. The cost associated with rewiring has become a barrier in many intercom system upgrade projects, sometimes it may just not be feasible in case of heritage buildings.
If you have an existing intercom system that is no longer working or you wish to upgrade it to a video system we have the perfect solution for you.
The following upgrade /retrofit options are available .
- 2 wire technology allows a new intercom system to be installed over existing cabling. 2-Wire technology allows installation of an entire Intercom system, using just 2 wires with both power and data running on the same cables. Any IP intercom on this website can be installed over existing cabling by using this 2 wire technology.
- Wi-Fi enabled Intercoms eliminate the need for cables, WI-Fi Intercoms are ideal for heritage buildings and sites where cabling is not feasible or too expensive to install. Wi-Fi Intercoms come with an integrated Wi-Fi module allowing them to connect with the home network without cables. For applications where the front gate is far away we offer Point to Point Wi-Fi hardware which can connect the gate intercom to the main network over long distance just the way a cable connection would by creating a virtual ethernet cable link.
- 3G , 4G LTE Cellular Intercoms integrate a sim card and make use of the 3G /4G mobile network to communicate with Home / Apartment users by calling landlines or mobile phones. 3G intercoms are mainly used for audio intercom application, they use a Voice SIM card and call residents on their mobiles or landlines. 4G LTE intercoms support video calls and use a 4G Data SIM card, every mobile user who wants to recieve intercom calls would also need to subscribe to the Mobile Intercom service.
- Cloud Hosted Intercoms – these systems connect to Internet cloud servers and deliver calls to apartment owners on mobile devices or any video phones / screens connected to the internet. The intercom at the apartment gate needs to be connected to a modem router in the communications room so it can access the internet, for apartments where there is no possibility of connecting to the gate intercom via cable, we offer industrial Cellular routers which can be installed in the intercom cavity and connect the intercom to the internet using 4G SIM card.
Please note if you prefer a particular intercom model listed on this website there is a good chance we can integrate the same for you using 2 wire technology or by connecting it over 3G/4G or Cloud. Please email us your requirements.
