Intercom

An intercom is an electronic communications system within a building or group of buildings. Intercoms are generally composed of fixed microphone/speaker units which connect to a central control panel. A small home intercom might connect a few rooms in a house. Larger systems might connect all of the rooms in a school or hospital to a central office. Intercoms in larger buildings often function as public address systems, capable of broadcasting announcements.

• Master Station - These are units that can control the system, i.e., initiate a call with any of the stations .
• Sub-stations - Units that are capable of only initiating a call with a Master Station but not capable of initiating calls with any other stations(sometimes called slave units).
• Door Stations - Like sub-stations, these units are only capable of initiating a call to a Master Station. They are typically weather-proof.
• Power Supply - Used to feed power to all units.

An intercom unit may be connected to an access control system (see access control) or a security surveillance camera system (see surveillance cameras).
