Comlink Recorder 12A Omniphone has been a leading manufacturer of inmate telephone system technology for the corrections industry since 1988. Omniphone has taken its state-of-the-art, secure inmate phone system that records and monitors inmate phone calls and visitation communications, and streamlined it for recording and monitoring radio dispatch and PBX lines/extensions. The ComLink Recorder 12A can also be used to record interrogations or interviews.  Public safety professionals in police departments and sheriff’s offices are pleasantly surprised by the features, low purchase price and economical maintenance of the ComLink Recorder 12A system. Each ComLink Recorder 12A  provides recording capabilities for up to twelve analog channels. These can be record-out connections on radio equipment, phone lines or stations, as well as any tip/ring interface. Each ComLink Recorder module is simply networked to a standard PC, the C.R.U.I.S.E. “Server”, for the purpose of storing, searching, playing, and archiving recordings. Up to ten ComLink Recorder modules can be networked to a single C.R.U.I.S.E. Server to provide recording capabilities for up to 120 channels. Moreover, from appropriately equipped PC’s that are networked to the C.R.U.I.S.E. Server, users can search for and play recordings and monitor live conversations right from their desk. Recordings are produced in a telephone quality, nonproprietary, standard WAV format for easy exporting and exceptional sound quality. Each WAV file name includes the channel designation, date (year, month, day) and time (hour, minute, second). Since all of the relevant information is stored in the file name, searching for and locating a recording on a specific channel at a particular date and time is very simple and very fast.

Incoming phone calls are identified by Caller ID. Outgoing phone calls are identified by DTMF digits dialed. Notes such as a case reference number can be added to any recording, both phone and radio. Recordings are saved in a standard WAV format for easy exporting and playback by any Windows® PC. Up to 33 hours of "telephone quality" recordings or 165 hours of "cell phone quality" recordings can be stored per gigabyte of hard drive storage. Recordings and their respective records can be easily exported from the system. The user can then view the call detail information using their computer's internet browser and can play call recordings with a standard media player. A WAV file verification program is included to ascertain whether or not a recording has been altered. Monitoring a live conversation cannot be detected by the parties on a call and monitoring has no effect on recordings. Programmable warning tones can alert parties that conversations are being recorded. Volume settings are programmable for each channel. Multilevel passwords are available to assign designated personnel with the privilege to listen to recordings or to monitor communications. Privileges can be further restricted to the specific channel or line being recorded/monitored. Built-in maintenance options facilitate archiving and management of recordings. Recording records can be filtered by such items as Date, Time, Location, Length, Notes and Recording Type. Radio Dispatch Recording and Monitoring Connection to radio communications equipment is via the logging or record-out port on that equipment. The ComLink Recorder provides voice activated recording of radio dispatch traffic.  Sensitivity settings are available to adjust to different types of radio dispatch equipment.

LINE SIDE: 1) All conversations using that line will be recorded. 2) A standard analog telephone connection (tip/ring) is required. EXTENSION SIDE: 1) Only conversations using that particular extension will be recorded. 2) A standard record-out port or logging adapter is used for an extension connected to a digital PBX.
