Access Link Classroom Communication Hub - Classroom Audio System

A wireless microphone for the teacher, a wireless audio platform for the future.

Powered by Lightspeed's Access Technology, Access Link works with any classroom configuration, and at long distances. Just as importantly, it operates on a bandwidth that virtually eliminates interference with other classroom technology.

Teachers' Voices Fall Victim to Physics

Listening is the primary channel for learning and teachers work hard to communicate in the classroom. But physical factors such as distance and noise prevent students from hearing the full message, often missing critical components required for learning and understanding.
