Clear communication is essential for success in any combat mission. The digital intercom system provides reliable communication in dangerous conditions with high levels of noise.
It is designed for installation in tracked as well as wheeled military and police vehicles. The intercom system consists of units allowing the connection of vehicle radios of various types and from various manufacturers as well as other system units, headsets, loudspeakers, PA systems, field telephone, etc.
Basic parameters:
- Up to 26 crew members
- Up to 6 vehicle radios
- Easy installation and use
- Supports ANR headsets
- Digital speech processing
- Highly intelligible communication in noisy environments
- Wireless communication with ground troops
- Automatic retransmission between radios
- Processing of signals from battle management systems (BMS)
- Built-In-Test
- Software defined parameters and configurations
- Expansion potential
The system is fully programmable via a configuration application.

The core of the intercom system
The core of the intercom system
The core of the intercom system is the VICM 201 Central Communication Unit (CCU). Other units of the system (BCU, ADI, REU, WSCU) are connected to the CCU in a star topology.
The Central Communication Unit (VICM 201) provides two full access points for headsets with access to the internal connection as well as vehicle radios. The unit enables individual volume control of connected users and selection of the working and monitoring channel. It provides continuous monitoring of the entire communication system known as Built-In-Test.
The unit itself functions as an intercom for two users and two radios. This solution is suitable for small-crew vehicles.
Main Units of the Intercom System
Basic Communication Unit
Basic Communication Unit
Full-fledged connection of up to 2 headsets
The VICM 202 Basic Communication Unit (BCU) provides full-fledged connection with independent volume control of two (ANR) headsets with access to the internal connection as well as vehicle radios. It allows the selection of the working and monitoring channel. It operates connected to the CCU.
Intercom Communication Unit
Intercom Communication Unit
Connection of 3 headsets
The VICM 205 Intercom Communication Unit (ICU) allows the connection of three (ANR) headsets to the intercom system. Users connected to the ICU are provided with the monitoring of vehicle radios.
Tactical loudspeaker
Tactical loudspeaker
Durable loudspeaker for loud reproduction of internal connection signals and radios
The loudspeaker comes in two variations:
- VICM 107 – loudspeaker with an integrated amplifier
- VICM 207 – loudspeaker without an amplifier
Extension Units
Wireless Segment Control Unit
Wireless Segment Control Unit
Communication with ground troops
The VICM 120 Wireless Segment Control Unit (WSCU) enables communication between ground troops and the vehicle crew. It is also provided with access to all vehicle radios. VICM 200 COMBAT supports a wide range of personal radios.
Radio Extension Unit
Radio Extension Unit
Possibility of system extension
The VICM 203 Radio Extension Unit (REU) enables the extension of the system by two or four vehicle radios. It operates connected to the CCU.
Audio&Data Interface
Audio&Data Interface
For BMS signal processing
The VICM 208 Audio&Data Interface (ADI) processes signals from the BMS and generates warning messages (other functions similar to BCU). It enables full connection of up to 2 headsets with access to the internal connection to vehicle radios. The ADI can also operate independently, without a connection to the CCU.
Field Telephone Interface
Field Telephone Interface
The VICM 212 Field Telephone Interface (FTI) enables the connection of a field telephone using a two-wire line. It also enables the connection of one headset. The FTI generates a ringing signal for the field telephone and acoustic and visual signals of field phone ringing.
