What is the Hollyland Geo?
Clear, reliable communication is a vital part of all productions and events. While wireless communication systems offer amazing flexibility and ease of use, they have often been associated with high costs and limited capabilities.
Hollyland aims to change this with the planned introduction of GEO, a high-performance solution with impressive scalability at a reasonable price. Take a first look at the key components and a brief introduction below.
Key Features of the Hollyland Geo
Based on the latest DECT 6 1.9GHz RF technology, the GEO includes a number of components that enable the construction of a full duplex communication system ideally suited to a wide range of applications. At its core is a 2U 19-inch rack-mounted central control unit, featuring a large array of inputs and outputs to provide options for integration with additional systems and other audio sources.
RF is managed through PoE or locally powered antenna hubs that support up to 20 durable, yet compact and lightweight belt packs. The belt packs, which accept a wide variety of headset options, boast a large, clear display and offer the ability for rapid direct communication with up to 16 programmable selections.
The GEO system can be as simple as a few beltpacks on a single antenna hub up to a maximum 8 antenna hubs, supporting 80 beltpacks, with multiple I/O connections.

Who is the Hollyland Geo For?
Hollyland GEO is an ideal comms solution for a multitude of production scenarios. Ultra-low latency connections for broadcast, extended transmission range for sports, effective noise cancellation for live performances, and scalable system complexity for theatre, GEO is built to suit all applications.
How Does it Differ to Other Hollyland Products?
Hollyland entered the comms market with highly capable yet fairly simple communication solutions, notably the Solidcom C1 PRO. While these initial offerings have now become firm favourites, the GEO represents a significant step forward. Still based on their robust 1.9GHz RF technology, the capabilities of GEO have greatly expanded in terms of system scalability, connection flexibility, and precise bespoke programming.
Connectivity and Compatibility
GEO is ready to interact with its environment in a huge number of ways. Along with four 4-wire I/O, two channels of 2-wire, and program input, there’s also Dante integration and even an integral port for direct connection to walkie-talkies. Power options include both DC and AC input, as well as PoE output for the antenna hubs.
