Clear-Com HMS4X 4 Channel Main Station for HelixNet Partyline Systems

HelixNet is a digital partyline system with up to 24 channels of full-duplex audio and program audio over any shielded twisted-pair cable. The HMS-4X is a 1RU digital partyline main station with 4 channels of full-duplex audio and program audio feed that can support up to 20 beltpacks on a single station. When using software 3.0 or higher, the HMS-4X offers 12 or 24 channels on a single main station and has access to the browser-based Core Configuration Manager (CCM) tool. Install the optional expansion license to expand the channel density by an additional 12 intercom channels for a total of 24 channels over a single shielded twisted-pair cable.

Operation
The front panel of the HMS-4X has easily accessible separate headset and mic buttons, a speaker with a rotary knob to control listen volume levels, multi-color LED levels, a Stage Announce button, a Remote Mic Kill button and an All Talk button.

Seamless Linking
Up to three HMS-4X Main Stations can be linked together without the need for active splitter devices. Linked stations are automatically detected and configured so that any beltpack has access to any two of the available active intercom channels.

Optional Modules
Each HMS-4X has three rear-panel interface module slots for a combination of any four available modules: Ethernet, Fiber, 4-Wire and 2-Wire. The Ethernet module (HLI-ET2)provides a dual LAN interface to connect multiple HMS-4X Main Stations or can connect Remote Stations (HRM-4X) and Speakers Stations (HKB-2X) via Ethernet. The Fiber module (HLI-FBS) provides a daily-chain fiber interface connection to other HMS-4XMain Stations. The 4-Wire module (HLI-4W2) provides an easy way to interface common4-wire audio paths. The 2-Wire module (HLI-2W2) provides connection between Clear-Com or RT S intercom to the HMS-4X Main Stations.
