Barix To Celebrate 25 Years In Business At InfoComm 2025

Barix celebrates its 25th year in business at InfoComm with the launch of a new Annuncicom two-way audio solution that continues its legacy of bridging analog systems with IP networks.
To be shown at Booth 2832, the new Annuncicom AHE-YA404 gives integrators an all-in-one solution to modernise legacy 2 or 4-wire intercom and paging solutions without the need to replace existing cabling or call stations.
Specifically, the Annuncicom AHE-YA404 is a powerful analog headend with integrated VoIP SIP support and onboard amplification. The 1RU device enables seamless paging and intercom functionality from standard SIP phone to as many as 16 individual legacy intercom panels. Importantly, the AHE-YA404 offers direct connection to speaker/microphone and call-button panels without the need to replace existing cabling or call stations. Upon establishing connectivity, the headend enables two-way HDX communication and room monitoring within help points, emergency intercoms, and security systems among other applications.
The Annuncicom product line is one of Barix's core flagship brands dating back to company’s earliest years, and represents the company’s legacy in bidirectional voice and audio over IP products for use in almost any application and business vertical. The Annuncicom AHE-YA404 carries that legacy forward with a modern hardware and software architecture that ensures long-term reliability, full compliance with current internet security standards, and easy adaptation to specific customer needs.
Like all modern Barix Audio over IP devices, the Annuncicom AHE-YA404 supports a wide range of professional audio environments including Dante®, SIP, InformaCast, and Syn-Apps, and handles popular codecs such as PCM, AACplus, MP3, OPUS, G.711, and G.722. Advanced features include priority-based paging, background music, and scheduled or network-triggered audio file playback — features that strengthen its value proposition as an all-in-one solution.
InfoComm takes place June 11-13 at the Orange County Convention Centre in Orlando.
