The Contacta IL-AE98 is a window-mounted hearing loop aerial for one-to-one service points behind a glass or acrylic barrier, combining the hearing loop wire and the ADA T-coil signage into a single 8.5-inch square panel that mounts on the staff side of the window facing the customer. The aerial transmits the audio signal from a Contacta hearing loop driver as a magnetic field through the glass, and any customer with a hearing aid or cochlear implant switched to the T-coil (telecoil) position picks up the audio directly in their device, cutting out ambient noise and letting them hear the staff side clearly through the barrier.
The window-mounted design solves three problems that a counter-top or wall aerial does not. First, the aerial mounts on the glass barrier rather than the counter, freeing up counter space that would otherwise be taken by a countertop stand or a wall-hung sign. Second, when the customer side of the counter is outdoors (drive-through pharmacy, ticket booth, airport tarmac counter, outdoor bank teller), the aerial stays indoors on the staff side of the glass, out of the weather. Third, the large blue T-coil sign is visible to the customer through the window from the moment they approach the counter, so hearing-aid users know a hearing loop is available before they start the transaction.
The IL-AE98 is designed to work with Contacta's hearing loop drivers, including the STS-A31H window intercom amplifier's built-in hearing loop drive, and connects via the included 6.5-foot cable. At 8.5 inches square and only 0.10 inch thick, the panel sits flush against the glass without obstructing the customer's view of the staff or the counter. It is well suited to bank teller windows, post office counters, pharmacy consultation windows, supermarket customer service desks, information center reception, library circulation counters, airport check-in and ticket booths, embassy and government facility reception, and any other service point where a glass or acrylic barrier separates staff from customers.
If you're not sure whether the IL-AE98 window-mounted aerial is the right choice for your installation (as opposed to the IL-AE97 above-the-counter aerial or the IL-AE99 under-the-counter aerial), please call us at 800-207-2259.
