The PBS Series Ritron Wireless Intercom/Base Station offers all the same features and functions as the JBS Series. The PBS is a cost-effective, AC powered, “fixed location” 2-way radio or wireless intercom.
Ideal for use with portable radios, the Ritron wireless PA system, radio callboxes and in systems using portable 2-way radios, it can even be programmed to work through radio repeaters.
The desk-top base station works with and is fully compatible with any other business band radio operating in the VHF or UHF frequency band.
Because the radio operates on AC power, there are never any batteries to keep charged or replace.
This radio has been specifically designed for commercial and industrial-grade business applications.
The all-metal enclosure provides a small, rugged, self-contained, fixed or location radio. The radio can also be operated on 12VDC if needed.
