Hollyland Solidcom C1 Pro HUB Base

Hollyland Solidcom C1 Pro HUB Base – Hub with A/B Grouping and UAC for Cloud Meetings

Expand your Solidcom intercom setup with the Hollyland Solidcom C1 Pro Hub Base. The Hub adds wired headset support, A/B grouping, an emergency Announce function, and USB Audio Class (UAC) connectivity so you can join cloud meetings on platforms like Zoom and Skype. It also lets you cascade additional Hubs to grow your system when you need more intercom connections on set or at an event.

How the Hub enhances your Solidcom C1 Pro system

The Solidcom C1 Pro system can operate up to 8 headsets without a Hub. However, when you add the C1 Pro Hub Base you can connect one wired headset to the Hub while simultaneously using up to eight remote headsets (headsets sold separately). You can further expand capacity by cascading additional Hub units as necessary.

Reliable wireless transmission and range

The complete C1 Pro system transmits in the 1.9 GHz spectrum and uses DECT 6.0 technology. This combination provides a secure and reliable link for on-site communications. In line-of-sight conditions the system supports a range of up to 1100'. The product materials also reference a 1000' two-way operating range as a listed capability in the feature summary.

Main Hub functions

• Wired headset support: The Hub provides a stable, professional wired headset attachment for situations that require direct, reliable communication from a fixed position.
• A/B grouping: Use A and B groups to separate teams or channels, reducing the chance of communication interruption and improving coordination across multiple groups.
• Announce key: A one-button ANNOUNCE function mutes remote headsets in an emergency so only the user on the Hub wired headset can broadcast urgent instructions to the whole team.
• UAC for cloud meetings: The USB Audio Class function lets you connect a computer to the Hub via USB and join cloud meetings on Zoom, Skype and other platforms, integrating on-site and remote participants.
• ENC on headsets: The wired Hub headset and the remote headsets (sold separately) use ENC (Environmental Noise Cancelling) technology to reject background noise and reduce echo.

Powering and deployment options

The Hub supports multiple power sources to suit field and fixed installations. You can power it using NP-F batteries, V-mount batteries, G-mount batteries, or a DC power adapter. This flexibility helps you adapt to different workflow needs on shoots, concerts, and live events.

Compatibility and expandability

The C1 Pro is backward compatible with the Solidcom C1 system. The Hub can interconnect different systems on site and offers 2- and 4-wire audio input/output interfaces for integration with other equipment. Additionally, up to three Hub-based systems can be cascaded via an IP network, enabling more complex or larger communication topologies by daisy-chaining systems as required.
