GETTING STARTED:
AN INTRODUCTION
TO CELLCOM
With a CellCom wireless beltpack users can roam freely around a
studio or production facility while talking and listening to all, or
selected, members of the production team. With up to six
communication routes, the beltpack gives users the flexibility to
communicate quickly and seamlessly with individuals or groups, and to
change communication routes as often as needed.
CellCom™ is the North American name for the award-winning
FreeSpeak® technology, the world’s first wireless system to include
local route programming, crosspoint level control, groups, and full
non-blocking mixing facilities.
In the United States the system operates in the unlicensed 1.92 GHz to
1.93 GHz band. With its unique and innovative digital technology,
which continually searches for unused radio frequency (RF) channels,
CellCom avoids the noise and interference issues associated with
traditional wireless systems using congested UHF and VHF bands.

CellCom allows a wireless system to be set up specifically tailored to
local needs by locating antennas and beltpacks in areas where they
are needed most. And because the beltpacks operate in the
unlicensed 1.92 to 1.93 GHz frequency spectrum, there is no
interference with existing wireless systems, even those located in the
same production area.
A CellCom system consists
of three basic elements: the
basestation, wireless
beltpack, and antenna.
With the basic three
elements the user can design
a digital wireless system for
specific requirements.
The CellCom basestation
functions as a full-duplex
digital matrix switcher and
router for voice
communications.
