Riedel Communications provided its equipment and engineering expertise to a dozen broadcast organizations at the recent Summer Olympic Games in Athens Greece.

Fifty tons of communications equipment was used at approximately 40 locations in Greece. The Riedel teams used 80 matrix systems, more than 2000 digital intercom control panels, 3000 digital and 1000 analog radio transmitters, 200 RiFace radio interfaces, 5500 headsets and more than 125 miles of cables and fiber. During all competitions service-teams stood stand-by to provide spare-units in the case of failure.

At the individual events Riedel's Artist S Matrix-systems enabled up to 1200 participants to connect with each other simultaneously. Referees, timekeepers and venue assistants communicated via approximately 1000 digital beltpack C2 systems. The beltpack offers a fully integrated solution for combined matrix and party-line style intercom setups.
