Norcon — Talk‑Thru Communication Systems for Security, Teller and Isolation Booths
Brand overview
Norcon Communications manufactures two‑way electronic communicators designed to let people converse clearly through glass, security partitions and isolation barriers. Their products are commonly specified for banks, ticket counters, pharmacies, healthcare reception and security booths where clear, durable communication is required.
Core product families and technologies
- TTU‑1X series (Thru‑glass) — units installed in drilled holes through glass or partitions.
- TTU‑3X series (Countertop) — prism‑shaped countertop communicators for retrofit or nondrilled installations.
- TTU‑4 / TTU‑5 — heavy‑duty and higher security variants, including bullet‑resistant options.
- TTU‑7X — designed for window screens and gates.
- Accessories and options — wireless headset support, push‑to‑talk, DSP noise cancellation, monitoring/recording outputs, ADA compatibility, multiple microphone choices and power options.
Key technologies
Norcon units use VOX (voice‑activated) two‑way circuitry, auto‑mute features to suppress ambient noise, sound‑shaping and compression for intelligibility, and optional DSP‑based noise cancellation. Monitoring/recording outputs and ADA‑compatible options are available for regulated installations.
Common applications
Frequent applications include teller and cashier windows, ticket booths, correctional visitors’ booths, pharmacy pickup windows, healthcare isolation reception, security checkpoints and other guarded access points. Bullet‑resistant thru‑glass variants are used in higher‑risk sites.
