Behind the Stand ISE Clear Com (1)

Welcome to this series highlighting some of the manufacturers and brands that will be featured on the show floor at ISE 2025. As we gear up for the event, we wanted to share a preview of what these companies are bringing to the table — from new products to insights about their focus for the show. These conversations offer a closer look at what you can expect and a chance to get to know the people behind the brands before the doors open in Barcelona. This interview is with Clear-Com’s Dave MacKinnon, VP of product management.

Q: Why is Clear-Com exhibiting at ISE this year?

A: ISE is one of the most important events on the calendar for Clear-Com, making it the perfect stage for Clear-Com to reveal a brand new product. This year we are highlighting the newly updated Eclipse Matrix software, EHX v14, and demonstrating a brand-new product being announced on February 4. ISE allows us to connect with industry leaders, end-users, and Partners to demonstrate how our solutions can address their ever-changing needs.

Q: What trends do you think we’ll see on the show floor, and how is your company positioned to capitalize on these opportunities?

A: We anticipate a continued focus on IP-based communication, hybrid workflows, and cloud integration as well as more AI focused models. Clear-Com is at the forefront of these trends with the award-winning Gen-IC virtual intercom, our cloud-based virtual intercom service, and Arcadia Central Station, which merges wired and wireless intercom into one streamlined system. Additionally, the newly released EHX v14 software update introduces native SIP integration further extending our IP capabilities and making eclipse more interoperable with third party equipment.

Beyond trade shows, we invest in training tours, reseller relationships and direct support initiatives that help partners and end users feel supported.
