ASL: Korean Distributor
At KOBA 2009 ASL Intercom appointed the Dai Kyung Vascom Co. Ltd as new Korean distributor.
Intercom manufacturer ASL Intercom recently enjoyed a highly successful presence at KOBA 2009, which culminated in the company appointing Dai Kyung Vascom Co. Ltd as a full distributor for ASL’s products. Dai Kyung Vascom was established in 1987, is a major distributor of high profile audio brands and one of the region’s most successful audio, video and communications companies and has won several awards for its success and technical innovations.
Held at the end of May, KOBA is the main trade show in Korea for the broadcast and entertainment technical industries, so Dai Kyung Vascom took the opportunity to show a selection of ASL’s product range, including the new digital intercom system. Such was the level of interest that Dai Kyung Vascom became an obvious ‘fit’ in ASL’s global network of distributors.
Susan McLohon with Dae-Hyun Han
Shaking hands on the appointment with Dai Kyung Vascom CEO Dae-Hyun Han, ASL sales and marketing director Susan McLohon said, “The Korean broadcast and technical entertainment market is rapidly developing, with companies looking for the most innovative products.
“Our analogue, wireless and especially our new digital intercom systems have generated a great deal of interest from Korean broadcast facilities, so we are very pleased to appoint Dai Kyung Vascom as a distributor. We believe the company matches our aims and ambitions to provide the very best communications technology, while maintaining unsurpassed levels of pre- and post-sales support.”
ASL’s Digital Intercom system enables greater configuration flexibility and has a number of exclusive new features. For example, ASL Digital Intercom networks can be configured using star, in-line, or daisy-chain topologies, all on standard Cat-5 cabling, to simplify installation and reduce costs.
Also, because each user station is individually addressable by its unique ID number, person-to-person (PTP) voice communication is available to all users without tying up a channel. And, for the first time, brief text messages can be sent from any speaker station to OLED displays on the speaker stations or beltpacks of any other users or user groups.
To accommodate expansion, up to six Matrix units can be linked via copper or fibre optic lines to create scalable systems serving from 40 to 240 users. System set-up and reconfiguration are easily accomplished through ASL Digital Intercom’s proprietary software, a refreshingly user-friendly Linux-based utility.
