Orbital Sound's European Debut for HME Digital Wireless Intercom

HME's DX121 enables quick and easy one-to-one wireless comms.

At the busy Broadcast Video Expo 2009 in London, Orbital Sound unveiled the new DX121 One-to-One Digital Wireless
Intercom from HM Electronics (HME). We are the exclusive UK distributor for HME's entertainment-sector products,
and this first European showing for the compact DX121 follows its worldwide launch at the beginning of February.

Comprising a BS121 base station and a charger for a BAT41 battery pack, the DX121 system is designed for maximum
flexibility, with applications in production studios and control room operations, as well as for live-event crews.
Tim Sherratt, Orbital Sound's Technical Director, commented: "HME's new DX121 offers great potential in broadcast applications.

It exhibits the same clear-thinking design and bullet-proof technology as the rest of HME products, and is a superbly practical system.
For example, its integral charger for remote Communicator® batteries allows the unit to operate on the charged battery during a power outage.

In addition, its compatibility with HME's DX200 and DX100 digital wireless ranges provides an extremely cost-effective route for expanding the system and enables our customers to get the maximum out of their comms inventory.
This new product moves HME further along the path to de-wire broadcast, theatre and event communications systems - it offers a truly valuable addition to our portfolio."

The DX121 provides flexible wireless connectivity for studio or OB environments, simply plugging into a standard intercom
station or belt-pack headset jack, or connected to a matrix intercom system via its four-wire interface. It enables wireless intercom links to be established quickly and easily, extending an
operator's range by up to 300 meters. An assignable relay closure offers further versatility, allowing the appropriate matrix channel to be selected from a belt-pack. A single DX121 can
support up to four HME remote Communicator® Beltpac or Headsets, while the system's FHSS Spectrum Friendly™
technology offers partial-band selection, enabling up to eight DX121 wireless intercoms to be used simultaneously for multi-channel applications.
The DX121 can be packaged with any of HME's remote communicators, such as the BP200 Beltpac, the WH200 All-In-
One Wireless Headset, or the WS200 Wireless Speaker Station.

In addition to the DX121, Orbital Sound also showed HME's DX300, DX200 and DX100 digital wireless intercom systems.
