Industrial Wireless PA Systems allow communication with two-way radio receivers attached to horn loudspeakers that relay messages from handheld radios or base station intercoms. Wireless two-way radio PA systems give you the flexibility of a wireless system so your PA speakers can be placed just about anywhere, without the restrictions of a wired PA system. With up to one mile wireless range, your staff can instantly communicate across large facilities and roam with their two-way radios.
Wireless PA receivers work with all VHF, UHF, MURS, GMRS and FRS radio frequencies. For even greater flexibility, each wireless PA receiver can be set to your existing two-way radio network on channels that are not already in use. Installation is quick and easy; simply plug in the included AC-to-DC power adapter and you are ready to go with true plug-and-play operation.

Q: What is the best way
to update handheld two-way radios and add a wireless PA for a 4-story
concrete building with interference issues?
A: The RT1118 wireless
PA works with UHF, VHF, GMRS, and MURS. UHF is better for indoor use,
but coverage in multi-story concrete buildings should be tested before
full deployment. Recommended radios include license-free BT1001, DA1006, and RT1014.
For UHF radios, repeaters can improve coverage but add complexity and
typically handle only one channel, possibly requiring multiple units.
You can start with radios and PA, then add repeaters as needed (Not for
use with MURS radios). The wireless PA can be programmed to work with
current radios. No installation services are provided.
Q: What is a possible upgrade to replace up to 40-line phones with a wireless paging system for a manufacturing plant?
A: The RT1118 Wireless
PA System is recommended. It uses two-way radios and a base station
intercom for one-way broadcasting. Additional devices like a voice
evacuation system can be integrated.
Q: What is a cost-effective wireless PA solution for a 65,000 sq ft warehouse?
A: Multiple RT1118 wireless
PA receivers can be used, each covering about 7,500 sq ft in open
space. Adding an extra speaker to each receiver and aiming in opposite
directions increases coverage. All units can be on the same channel,
broadcasting from a device like the RT1014 MURS commercial wireless intercom. Additional horn speakers and RCA Y-connectors are available.
A: No, RT1118 PA speakers cannot be operated over Wi-Fi. They require two-way radios for communication, with range dependent on the environment. Intercoms Online does not offer a Wi-Fi/app-based solution for unlimited-distance operation.
Q: What intercom system is
recommended for a restaurant in a food court so the front of house can
speak to the kitchen without the kitchen responding, using a wireless
plug-and-play setup?
A: The recommended solution is the RT1118 one-way loud receiver paired with a transmitter such as the RT1014 MURS Commercial Wireless Intercom. This setup allows the front of house to speak into a microphone, and the message will be broadcast clearly to the kitchen without requiring a response.

Q: What wireless intercom and
speaker system is suitable for a 43,000 square foot warehouse needing
paging from the office and two-way communication with workers, loud
enough to be heard over forklifts?
A: The RT1118 wireless PA system is recommended for the speakers, paired with the RT1014 MURS
Commercial Wireless Intercom for office paging. While paging is
one-way, additional base stations can be placed in the warehouse on the
same channel to allow two-way communication. The system uses radio
waves, so the speakers and intercom units communicate wirelessly. The
speakers are loud enough for warehouse environments with forklifts. For
coverage, 1 receiver for around 7000 square feet is advised, so 6 units
sounds correct.
A: No, IntercomsOnline stations are not compatible as replacements for Nutone apartment stations. Nutone systems typically use 4 wires, while the discussed unit uses 2. Since Nutone is out of business, replacement parts may only be found on secondary markets like eBay.
Q: What intercom and PA system options are available for a church and preschool, and what items are recommended?
A: A wireless setup is recommended. For PA receivers, the RT1118 can be used. For transmitters, the RT1014 and BT1001 are suggested.
Q: Can a customer service button be integrated into an existing PA system, and what equipment is needed?
A: Integration is possible only if the PA system is radio-based. In that case, a wireless bridge is required. The button can signal both walkie-talkies and the PA system if all radios are on the same frequency. The recommended bridge (RT1120) is available at: https://www.intercomsonline.com/vhf-murs-uhf-grms-frs-radio-to-pa-bridge .

To add a second speaker to each receiver, you can use the RT1062 Wireless PA RCA Y-Connector, and the additional speaker part number is RT1001. The receivers can be programmed for UHF or VHF frequencies to work with your own radios. If you prefer not to obtain an FCC license, MURS radio devices are available. Here is a diagram showing how to build a full system using MURS: https://www.intercomsonline.com/assets/images/Building-A-System-RT1118.jpg
Q: With the RT1118 PA system and RT1014 intercoms in a school, can all classrooms hear an emergency broadcast through their intercoms, and does adding two-way communication complicate things?
A: Yes, all classrooms can hear emergency broadcasts through their intercoms. If two-way communication is not needed, simply set all RT1014 intercoms to Channel 2 and they will all receive the same broadcast. If you want two-way communication as well, set the RT1014 intercoms to Channel 1 and enable Channel Scan mode — they will still receive PA broadcasts on Channel 2. To broadcast to the PA system from an RT1014, you would switch it to Channel 2. It adds a small step but is not overly complicated.
Q: What wireless PA system would let any classroom in a small school broadcast to the whole school instantly in an emergency?

Q: What wireless paging system do you recommend for a 50,000-square-foot manufacturing facility, and what equipment is required?
A: For a wireless paging system in a manufacturing facility, the recommended solution is the RT1118 system. Full product details are available here: https://www.intercomsonline.com/murs-uhf-vhf-grms-frs-wireless-pa-system. For a 50,000-square-foot facility with an open interior and operating machinery, a good starting point would be 7 receivers. Each receiver typically covers about 7,000 square feet, though coverage may be reduced in noisy environments. Each receiver can support two speakers, and adding an extra horn speaker to each receiver can improve coverage by allowing speakers to be pointed in opposite directions. The recommended components are RT1118, RT1014, RT1062, and RT1001. Additional installation information is available here: https://intercomsonline.com/v/vspfiles/downloadables/Ritron/Wireless_PA_Install.pdf. All sales and support are provided from Nashville, and Canadian versions of the equipment are available, although they are not stocked and may require up to four weeks to build. To receive a quote, place the desired items in your cart and select the "Quote" payment option during checkout. An invoice with shipping costs will be emailed to you, and no shipment will occur until payment is received.

Q: Do you have an emergency mass communication system for a 12-bedroom facility that needs wall-mounted intercoms in each room, ceiling speakers in common areas, and a master control station?
A: We don't carry a full two-way intercom system configured that way, but we do offer the wireless PA system RT1118, which can serve as a one-way broadcast solution. You would use the RT1087 master unit to send emergency announcements out to PA speakers throughout the facility. It won't support two-way intercom communication, but it can handle emergency notification broadcasts.
