radios and it provides long

This heavy duty outdoor intercom is designed for
construction sites, golf courses, hotels/motels, airport parking
lots, gated entrances, manufacturing, college campuses,
hospitals, receiving docks, amusement parks, resorts, locked
entrances, farms, ranches, warehouses, campgrounds, parking
lots, delivery doors, and any other application that needs two
way communication for safety or convenience.
There is
no need for extensive wiring, trenching, remodeling, or
installing dedicated phone
lines with expensive monthly fees since the MURS Callbox is completely wireless.

"We purchased the MURS 4 Mile Range and MURS
Commercial Intercoms because one of our Preschool classrooms
is far removed from the office – there was no way of
communicating electronically/ rapidly which is of special
concern in case of emergency. We decided to purchase the
outdoor Callbox XT to put out on our playground.
The classroom piece of the intercom has
saved much frustration and time simply by eliminating the
need for a staff member to either leave her classroom to
walk to the office or vice versa. Our office staff (one of
whom is handicapped) LOVES them because they don’t have to
get up and down repeatedly to deliver messages/ gather
information, etcetera. It’s all done through the new
intercoms. They provide peace of mind in case there is an
emergency." -- Stephanie

For simple installation, the MURS Callbox is
designed to operate on 6 D-cell batteries (alkaline or Ni-Cad
rechargeable). An optional external power supply is also
available. The MURS Callbox has two modes of power consumption.
In Automatic Turn-Off the unit turns itself off after a programmed amount
of inactivity (up to 4 minutes). It can only be turned on again by pressing its
Call button on the Callbox. In this mode it cannot receive calls from
other intercom or handheld radio units. It can only make calls and then other
units can respond.
In Normal mode, the unit does not turn itself
off and the MURS Callbox can not only make calls, but receive
them as well. This mode consumes the largest amount of power and
should only be considered if an external source of power is available. If an external source of power is used, the internal batteries
can be installed as a back-up against loss of
The MURS Callbox is housed in a fiberglass
enclosure with a stainless steel faceplate that includes
tamper-resistant fasteners and a concealed antenna making it
perfect to withstand harsh elements.
Since this callbox operates in the MURS
frequencies, no FCC license is required.
