Aiphone NI-RC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What master station does the Aiphone NI-RC bedside sub station work with?
The NI-RC is an NIM Series device and calls in to an Aiphone NIM master station. It is not a standalone intercom, so you need an NIM master already in place (or on the order) for it to do anything.
2) How far can I run the wire from the bedside station back to the master?
Up to 650 feet when you use 18AWG cable, such as Aiphone #821803. The run has to be 3-conductor overall shielded wire between the sub station and the master station for the signal to hold up. Plan your riser and closet location around that 650 foot ceiling.
3) What wire do I need to order with the Aiphone NI-RC?
Three-conductor overall shielded cable, 18AWG if you want the full 650 foot distance. Aiphone #821803 is the cable called out for it. The station itself does not come with cable, so the wire is a separate line on the order.
4) How does the NI-RC bedside station mount at the patient bed?
It is a handheld unit. It clips to the bed for patient reach, and it hangs from a hook on the NIR-HPF when not in use. There is no wall box or door prep involved, which is what separates it from a fixed wall-mounted call station.
5) Does the patient have to hold a button down to talk on the NI-RC?
No. The NI-RC supports hands-free call-in and conversation with the NIM master, so a patient who cannot hold or press and hold a handset can still be heard. That is the practical reason to spec this over a press-to-talk handset.
6) Do I order one NI-RC per bed or per room?
One per bed. The NI-RC is the bedside end of the system, so each patient position that needs to call the master gets its own unit, each with its own 3-conductor shielded home run back to the NIM master.
7) Is the Aiphone NI-RC rated for commercial or residential use?
Commercial. It is built for healthcare and institutional environments, and the typical installs are hospitals and care facilities, schools, government buildings, office and multi-tenant residential properties where a nurse call or attendant station is needed.
8) What is the NI-RC housing made of and will it hold up to daily patient use?
Plastic housing, chosen so the unit stays light enough to be held or clipped to a bed rail while still standing up to constant handling in a facility. Nothing in the build requires a mounting plate or trim kit.
