In the nearly 50 years that Clear-Com has been in the intercom business, every working product that it has ever sold can be adapted to the latest global internet technology. That means these intercoms can be expanded to connect with the nearly one billion internet telephones and walkie-talkies and millions more mobile iOS and Android devices.

Riedel is best known for its expertise in intercoms, but in the last decade the company has diversified into media networks with the MediorNet products. The company’s products are found at prestigious events from Formula One motor racing to the Eurovision Song Contest, provided as a service, or sold to broadcasters and mobile fleets. The Broadcast Bridge spoke to CEO Thomas Riedel for a preview of IBC2017 product launches, and to hear his vision for the future direction of the company.
