Intercom systems were the first line of security for unmanned operating stations wear unauthorized entry was prohibited and or restricted from public access without approval. These systems have advanced and now serve multiple purposes ranging from residential communications via a telephone to commercial facility’s that incorporate a number of units acting as a single element to communicate internally within the infrastructure.

Advancements in security technology have grown in leaps and bounds with Intercom systems at the forefront making great strides and enhancements that most general security applications have not been able to compete with.

Intercoms and the security units that they incorporate can function in many ways offering a multitude of options that can create great convenience and security enhancements.

Initially the intercom was created as a communication device for internal purposes. Today we see these units controlling security threw a number of methods such as access control.

Access control enables the person operating the system to allow entry to a private area via a control box located in an office for commercial purposes or an apartment for residential use. One very popular aspect of the newer intercom units is infrared cameras. What this does is it allows for a visual confirmation prior to the person that is granting access, via live video feed. The camera can be standard or high definition and can be connected to a digital video recorder to log visual information for future playback if a crime is committed.

Some of the more advanced systems have virtual avatars that act as a guide when selecting your contact and show a digital directory of all occupants with a code that can be entered so you can make contact and communicate effortlessly.

Concerning installation, many intercom systems will be hard wired. Hard wired refers to units that are installed with physical wiring which may run threw an entire complex. Advancements have enabled us to consider a newer and ever popular approach to installing new intercom systems wirelessly.

Wireless Intercoms have become very desirable because they allow for advanced installations which require no exposed wiring. Standard systems require exposed wires to run across walls, ceilings, and along floorboards making it unsightly and inconvenient to say the least. The wires can be snaked through walls if they are hollow but in many prewar homes in places like Brooklyn NY and Manhattan the walls are made of solid concrete and therefore have now internal shafts to slide the wires threw. This means installations where it is not possible to run wires without exposure are now a reality as wireless intercom systems are available.
