WELCOME!
Thank you for purchasing The Alcorn McBride V-Com intercom station!
What makes V-Com truly special is its ability to provide facility-wide intercom using industry-standard Dante or
AES67 network audio and the Q-Sys™ ecosystem of DSP cores and software.
The V-Com VC12X is a twelve-button station that comes with a push-to-talk handset, handset hook, sonalert
ringer, receiver volume knob, and twelve IP65 rated buttons /w integrated indicators. The station is just the right
size for a standard 8” x 10” Hoffman enclosure, making it a fantastic off-the-shelf intercom solution that’s ready to
go right out of the box. Ring zone assignments, button and indicator behaviors, and intercom party lines are all
easily configured within in the Q-Sys Designer and Administrator software.
For easy and reliable installation, a single Ethernet (Cat5e or greater) cable carries audio, power, control and
monitor data between the V-Com station and the Q-Sys system. This allows you to incorporate as many as 256
V-Com stations using a single Q-Sys core by simply connecting them to Power Over Ethernet (PoE) network
switches. For stations that are far from the equipment room, V-Com even supports an SFP network transceiver
(not included) for reliable long-distance communications.
For applications where you wish to build your own custom intercom console, be sure to check out our V-Com
VC16K paging station kit. The V-Com VC16K supports up to 16 ring zone buttons and is designed to be mounted
inside a custom console. It includes all of the accessories needed to wire up your custom-installed buttons and
indicators.
