Know before you buy
Yes. The system supports up to 6 intercom stations, allowing for two-way communication between the helm and various locations on your vessel.
The Listen Back feature allows the hailer speakers to function as microphones, picking up sounds from the deck and amplifying them back to the helm. This is particularly useful for monitoring activity or hearing crew members when they are away from an intercom station.
Yes, the unit features alarm sensor connectivity. When properly wired to your vessel's alarm or fire system, it can automatically trigger alerts to notify the crew of critical situations.
Each speaker output provides 30 watts of power. This is sufficient to ensure clear, audible communication and siren warnings even in noisy marine environments.
You can customize the intercom channel names directly on the unit. This makes it much easier to identify specific stations, such as 'Engine Room' or 'Forward Deck,' rather than relying on channel numbers.
The LH5000 is versatile and can be installed using the included hanger and knob for surface mounting, or via a flush mount gasket and template for a cleaner, integrated look at your helm.
