VCOM Interoperable Platform
- The VCOM Interoperable Platform offers a distributed and easily
customizable method for integrating separate communications
systems in multiple locations into a single seamless and rapidly re-configurable master
system solution. The heart of this master system is the VCOM Virtual Matrix Intercom
which has found popular acceptance in the commercial, industrial, government,
and entertainment markets. This unique system offers the identical operational
features normally found in hardware central matrix systems in a server-distributed client format running on standard computer hardware and
IP network topology.
- The use of standard off-the-shelf interface hardware in conjunction with
VCOM's unique software package allows an unprecedented level of system
integration, while keeping operational costs to a minimum and completely eliminating rapid obsolesence. System upgrades and changes are accomplished by a simple software upgrade. System expansion is easily accomplished by the addition of standard hardware and easy-to-use system administration software.
- The distributed nature of this platform architecture allows for individual
communication systems to be located anywhere that a network connection
can be established. This interconnection of multiple individual systems can be then controlled from any location, or from multiple locations. If the master administration
site becomes lost, an alternative one can be easily established from anywhere in a matter of
seconds, even from a wireless laptop!
- Initial system setup involves programming the Virtual Matrix using the VCOM
System Administration application and configuring the necessary audio
I/O and GPIO hardware. The audio interface is then connected to the radio audio
input/output as determined by the individual radio’s configuration. Next, the
GPIO interface is connected to the radio according to the individual radio’s
push to talk configuration.
