The International Security Conference (ISC West) Las Vegas, NV (March 31, 2004) - A TCP/IP audio intercom was introduced today by Digital Acoustics Corporation, developers of award winning, patented technology products. The ii3 IP Intercom™ Series, with Talkmaster™ management software, is the first in the company's next-generation of quick-to-install, scalable, highly configurable two-way intercom stations. The intercom delivers high quality audio over Ethernet, wireless and fiber in local or wide area networks.

Using the TCP/IP network for two-way audio is simplified by Digital Acoustics' TalkMaster™ PC Server Application. TalkMaster provides a central command and control solution with critical support tools to manage communications easily and to set up all products in the ii3 family. "These new products provide great alternatives to legacy connections in wired-facility communication using the sciences we developed in house," said Chris Coffin, executive vice president of Digital Acoustics. "By using new DSP and RISC integration, we can provide affordable products for intercom integration that can be cost effective, easy to design-in and simple to use. A typical installation can add intercom stations as easily as plugging in a phone."

New Ethernet Intercom System
In ii3 IP Intercom configurations, a standard PC handles all master station functions for a single intercom to hundreds of stations. TalkMaster manages the basic two-way audio, as well as advanced operations for waiting calls, storing messages, sending alerts and call transferring. Auto-detection and proprietary auto-latency insures reliable connections and crisp, clear digital-quality voice audio.

As an added feature, the ii3 Series provides "Direct Mode" communication enabling ii3 IP Intercom pairs to communicate directly without network server support or a host PC.

Typical installations include two-way audio upgrades to existing network camera stations, access control, security systems, intrusion detection systems, military command and control, checkpoint management, IT help desks, school classroom communications remote audio relay for audio, and more. In a unique offering for the security industry, Digital Acoustics released the TalkMaster™ Software Developer Kit (SDK). Designed specifically for ii3 IP Intercoms, iTalk/X provides programming language support for Microsoft ActiveX, giving OEMs and integrators the ability to develop custom audio interfaces for video, monitoring stations and entry systems.

The ii3 IP Intercom Series, designed for security and industrial communications, include OEM plug-in cards, wall panels and desktop stations. The ii3 IP Intercoms are available for under $335. Visit www.digitalacoustics.com or contact Digital Acoustics Sales at (847) 604-9256 for more information.
