Clear-Com has been involved with primarily intercom and communications integration technology.

Starting in 1970 with the RS-100 beltpack and the CS-100 (aka ‘the shoebox’), the Clear-Com model line expanded to include a complete mix of Main Stations that could support up to 100 remote stations.

Clear-Com was founded in the San Fransisco Bay area.

In 1997, Clear-Com was acquired by the UK-based holding company Vitec Group. In 1998 Vitec also bought Clear-Com’s UK-based competitor, Drake Electronics.  

In 2010, Clear-Com brought to market the very first digital network partyline system called HelixNet. It had a robust set of partyline capabilities and digital audio quality that operated over any standard shielded twisted pair cable, but its core technology was an IP platform which also allowed audio channels, program audio and distributed Power-over-Ethernet to run on any standard IT network infrastructure via an Ethernet/LAN cable.

In 2014 Clear-Com redesigned the first generation FreeSpeak/CellCom system and introduced the 2.4 GHz and 1.9 GHz DECT based FreeSpeak II product.
