General
teleCARE IP with wireless functionality is intended for use in nursing homes and in assisted living facilities.
teleCARE IP is able to support wireless functionality through the NIRC3 teleCARE IP room controller
combined with the NIRX transceiver, which is piggy-back mounted on the circuit board of the NIRC3. For
detailed information refer to
“Principle of the teleCARE IP with Wireless Functionality” on

teleCARE IP also supports a wireless infrastructure based on a wireless gateway and multiple wireless
repeaters. The wireless gateway consists of the NIRC3 connected via USB to a wireless repeater NUREP.
