Intercom Headsets, Bodypacks and Comm Systems
Every event needs back-of-house production equipment just to make the show run, especially 'comms': closed circuit intercom systems so show staff can communicate with each other, usually from fixed positions. Give us a call at (212) 812-7819 or email at info@thehouseofjax.com and we'll put together the right comms package for you using our 30+ years of experience as a guide.
Comm Systems
When you're the show caller, you need to communicate securely and discretely with all the other key tech positions such as the followspot operator, audio tech, lighting tech, video tech, even the dressing or green rooms.
Rental Telex BP-1000 Wired Single-Channel Intercom Beltpack
Day Rate: $55
Weekly Rate: $125

The Telex Audiocom BP-1000 is a microprocessor controlled single channel intercom belt packs. Internal switch and jumper settings allow the unit to be uniquely configured to the operator’s requirements. We like this unit because they can be wired via standard 3 pin XLR cables, and they use 4 pin headsets.
*Note: an internal switch and jumper setting allows the units to be used with Clear-Com components, if desired.

Rental Telex PS-2001L Dual Channel Power Supply
Day Rate: $55
Weekly Rate: $125
Replacement cost: $499
The Telex Audiocomm PS2001L power supply supplies two isolated channels of intercom system phantom power to down line components. Essentially, closed circuit comm systems are a long party line where everyone shares the same circuit. This unit is for basic stand-alone powering of backpacks along a single daisy chain.
Intercom power channels may be combined via the Combine/Isolate switch to form a single intercom power channel with double the capacity of large party-line applications. The PS2001L may be combined with a US2002 user station to create a two-channel master station configuration or as a stand-alone power supply. The resultant master station would be a headset only station, as the PS2001L does not have an integrated speaker. Rack mountable.
Important specs:
Number of Channels: 2.
Input Power:100 - 240VAC, 50/60Hz.
Output Power: 21VDC +/-1V, 2A.
