Hanwha Techwin to announce network intercom station and audio products at GSX 2021

At GSX 2021, in booth #1641, Hanwha Techwin, a global supplier of IP and analogue video surveillance solutions, will announce a new touchless network intercom station and a range of network audio products including stylish and highly versatile speakers, a microphone station, analogue audio conversion module and audio server for large speaker deployments.

The TID-600R network intercom station features a 2MP sensor with Hanwha Techwin’s signature WDR (wide dynamic range) and low light performance for best-in-class images. The lens offers a wide 180° field of view while IR provides up to 16 feet of illumination from the station at night.

Allowing easy installation

The built-in speaker and microphone provide excellent call clarity with up to 85dB of volume at 20 inches. The TID-600R features a unique, touchless call system where users simply present their palm within six inches of the station to initiate a call. With full support for SIP 2.0, the station can easily integrate with a wide variety of VMS, access control, SIP phones or PBX servers.

Users can program audio messages to be played automatically when the device is approached

The intercom station also features echo cancellation, noise reduction and a built-in tamper switch and relay for stand-along door access. Users can program audio messages to be played automatically when the device is approached or when a call is initiated. A range of included Hanwha Techwin analytics such as line crossing, loitering, appear/disappear, and more are included. The slim 1.93” (W) x 6.50” (H) x 1.89"(D) form factor allows easy installation on a door mullion or other surfaces.

Touchless intercom station

Tilt mount, flush mount and white/dark grey colours are available. “In this age of COVID 19 and the awareness of high-touch surfaces, having a touchless intercom station was important to our customers,” said Ray Cooke, Senior Vice President - Products, Solutions, and Integrations at Hanwha Techwin America. “The slim form factor and SIP compatibility, combined with our industry leading imaging technology, raises the bar for networks intercom stations.”

The range of new IP-based audio products includes versatile and stylish speakers to match any décor. For use with background music and paging, the SPA-B100B/W wall/cabinet speaker and the SPA-C110B/W plenum-rated ceiling speaker are available in both black and white. Background music can also be scheduled from a simple web interface.

Pendant mount option

The SPA-H100B/W is a fashionable new indoor/outdoor horn speaker with over 100dB SPL

An attractive pendant mount option will also be available for open ceilings, extending the ceiling speaker closer to ground level for enhanced fidelity. The SPA-H100B/W is a fashionable new indoor/outdoor horn speaker with over 100dB SPL. Useful for sound deterrence and safety use cases, it can be mounted on a wall or pole and offers multiple secure pivot points. When integrated with a VMS or AI camera, upon detecting a person, a sound file can be triggered from the speakers automatically.

All speakers can be powered with PoE or PoE+ for maximum SPL. Hanwha’s PoE extender cameras are an excellent option to power a camera and companion speaker from a single wire. The speakers support SIP, SUNAPI, and Open API for ease of integration and compatibility with PBX servers. Live announcements can be made via a SIP phone or VMS.

• SPA-M1000 SIP microphone – Enables paging using SIP protocol to any SIP audio device.
