The Basic Voice Communication System for High-Security and Isolation Booth Situations

Today's security and isolation booths and ticket booths are often the best step you can take to protect your employees. But do they protect and also help maintain your very important good will? Not if clerks and customers have to shout and growl and repeat themselves to be heard or understood.

The Alpha Communications®/Norcon patented TTU-1 Talk-Thru Communicator is a 2-way, hands-free audio system that provides high-quality personal communication between people separated by security or isolation barriers. It is the most widely used system of its type in the U.S., and the world.

The TTU-1 provides clear communication even in environments with high ambient noise by shaping the sound for maximum intelligibility. Its compression circuitry decreases loud, annoying sounds.

How It Works...

The Alpha Communications®/Norcon TTU system permits hands-free, 2-way communication between the booth attendant and the customer. Vox circuitry facilitates ongoing, clear, 2-way conversation at all times - as if the two parties were together in the same room.

The TTU-1 Talk Thru Communicator now incorporates circuity to automatically attenuate the outside channel. If the gooseneck microphone is not used for a period of 30 seconds, the outside channel will be reduced approximately 70%. Normal operation is restored as soon as the attendant speaks into the gooseneck microphone. The automatic volume attenuation circuit prevents outside noise from bothering the attendant.

How To Install...

Installation of the TTU-1 is a very simple, one-person operation. All that's needed is a 3 to 4 inch round cutout in the barrier. Four fasteners and two rubber gaskets needed for mounting are supplied. Please specify barrier thickness when ordering.

The front face and housing are easily mounted on opposite sides of the barrier using the fasteners supplied. The rubber gaskets prevent slippage and protect the barrier surface. The electronic section is then inserted into the housing and fastened in place.

Note choice of continuous-duty, 117-Volt AC power supply stepped down to 12 Volts (TTU-1A-X series), or rechargeable nickel cadmium battery operation (TTU-1D-X series).
