Samil Church calls on Genie
Samil Church calls on Genie
Operating since 1954, Samil Church in Seoul has four auditoriums for hosting services and events. Its main services are held in Hall B, which recently required a new wireless intercom system to replace an unsuitable walkie-talkie setup for delivering clear communication throughout the facility. This led to the installation of LaON’s Genie hybrid intercom solution.
Genie remote antennas were installed across the site, ensuring coverage in the broadcast control room, at FOH on the second-floor balcony, in the pulpit on the ground floor, the fourth-floor waiting room and in the stairwell. The LaON system, complete with hands-free beltbacks for staff, was chosen as it is a scalable solution that can be extended into other spaces if required. The Genie BS1000 base station has been installed in the control room and two remote antennas and a single repeater were deployed on the first and fourth floors.
‘After the installation, the church is able to have clear and seamless communications across the facility,’ said Miyoun Park, LaON’s sales manager. ‘In Korea, many churches are actively engaged in ministry activities using media and therefore have high standards when selecting products and are well-equipped with best-in-class broadcast and AV systems. The Genie intercom system adds to this by supporting real-time communications.’
