| Universiade 2011 chooses Clear-Com for summer games |
| Posted: August 2011 | ||||||
 Clear-Com, a provider of critical voice communication systems, was part of the communications set-up for Summer
Universiade 2011, an international multi-sport event for university athletes that took place last month in Shenzhen, China. One 48-port Clear-Com Eclipse-Median digital matrix intercom, 117 V-Series control panels, three IVC-32 32-channel IP matrix cards and one Concert software-based intercom system provided a vital communications link between broadcasters working in the International Broadcasting Centre (IBC) with those in the 27 sports stadiums hosting the games. Universiade is an international sporting competition and cultural festival that is held every two years in varying countries worldwide and is second in importance only to the Olympic Games. The Summer Universiade consists of 12 permanent sporting events: athletics, basketball, fencing, soccer, gymnastics, judo, swimming, diving, water polo, table tennis, tennis, volleyball and up to three additional events chosen by the host country. Unlike the Olympics, both the summer and winter Universiade tournaments occur during the same calendar year. The IVC-32 cards enabled direct IP connectivity from the Eclipse digital matrix hardware frame within the IBC to the various V-Series panels located throughout the IBC and surrounding stadiums. The management team running the games from the IBC was able to communicate with broadcasters via Concert virtual panels on their computers. This set-up allowed the broadcasters who coordinated the games’ live telecasts to quickly and easily communicate with one another from any location. According to Clear-Com, not only were the broadcasters satisfied with the efficient production workflow, but audience members also received an improved viewing experience of the games from home. “Those working on Universiade 2011 were impressed with the reliability, high audio quality and low latency for live telecast events that the Clear-Com Eclipse-Median provides,” said Jeffery Wu, Clear-Com’s regional sales manager and chief representative for China. “They also appreciated the flexibility of the IP linking between the IBC and the stadiums [as] they can provide the broadcasters they serve with virtually unlimited communications.” Clear-Com added that its Eclipse digital matrix intercoms integrated with digital wireless beltpacks and IP-based software intercoms, and provided a flexible and scalable foundation for point-to-point and group-based multi-connections. The Eclipse systems can support as few as 36 user connections on a single matrix frame or as many as 3,120 on a networked system platform. Complimenting Eclipse are the V-Series intercom user control panels featuring digital signal processing, 10-character display, Listen Again technology and native IP technology. Clear-Com’s Concert is a scalable Intercom-over-IP solution that enables collaborative workgroups to instantly and reliably intercommunicate from their PC from anywhere in the world on any IP network. It is based on Clear-Com’s proprietary I.V.Core technology, a suite of IP technologies that delivers low latency through an intelligent decision engine that routes only the audio packets containing needed voice information. It promises superb audio quality through the use of wideband codecs, thanks to a highly optimised design that eliminates multiple encode/decode cycles.
