The SOLT SB6-6PBK (KT SKU: KTI040120SLT6PBK) is a versatile 6-button wireless call transmitter engineered for multi-channel staff coordination, internal dispatching, and rapid paging. Operating on 433 MHz / 434 MHz radio frequency using GFSK modulation, each of the unit's six keys can be independently mapped to specific staff members, display consoles, or alerting scenarios.
Commercial Kitchen Expediting and Hospitality Staff Calling
In high-volume commercial kitchens and restaurant operations, the SB6-6PBK functions as an expeditor pass console. Mounted directly at the chef station or kitchen pass using heavy-duty adhesive pads, the unit enables kitchen staff to call specific servers when plated orders are ready for collection.
- Individual Waiter Paging: Each button can be mapped directly to an individual server's SOLT SP-series wrist watch pager (such as the SP7 or SP9), alerting only the assigned server to minimize service delays.
- Role-Based Escalation: The panel can be split across roles, with buttons dedicated to food runners, sommeliers, bus staff, and floor supervisors.
- Kitchen Environment Resilience: Constructed with an IP53 / IP54 dust- and splash-resistant polymer housing rated for up to 16 million key actuations, the unit withstands moisture, steam, and frequent sanitizing with cleaning chemicals.
Healthcare Wards and Clinical Attendant Calling
Configured within outpatient clinics, care wards, and nursing stations, the transmitter coordinates multi-tier patient assistance and room alerts. Because the transmitter operates autonomously on 2 lithium coin cell batteries (they are not included), it can be deployed at bedsides or check-in counters without routing power cables.
- Corridor Door Light Integration: Activating specific call buttons triggers wireless over-door lights (SOLT SL5 and SL6 series) outside patient rooms to identify active call locations at a glance.
- Central Nurse Station Monitoring: Transmission signals route directly to centralized SOLT SM3 series multi-digit wireless LED display panels at reception or nurse consoles.
- Handset Support: Accommodates optional wired hand units via straight or spiral cables (compatible with 1 PSR, 2 PSR, and 3 PSR handsets) for immobilized patients requiring bedside call triggers.
Industrial Assembly Lines and Warehouse Dispatch
In manufacturing plants and logistics fulfillment centers, the SB6-6PBK serves as an on-demand material and maintenance calling terminal positioned alongside production machinery or packing benches.
- Material Replenishment: Operators trigger button presses to alert forklift drivers or stock runners when bin inventories run low.
- Maintenance and Quality Alerts: Dedicated keys page maintenance technicians, tooling supervisors, or QA inspectors directly without operators leaving their workstations.
- Signal Extension Across Large Plants: While the internal 10 mW transmitter provides 100 to 150 meters line-of-sight range, facility managers can install SOLT SR5-BPR RF signal repeaters to relay signals across expansive steel structures, multi-level mezzanines, and dense concrete partitions.
- Centralized Logging: Calls can be captured by the SOLT SR5-MPR wireless PC interface module to monitor response intervals and log call event timestamps.
Administrative Service Desks and Retail Checkout Support
Retail sales floors and commercial front desks utilize the compact 100 mm x 60 mm x 16.5 mm profile of the SB6-6PBK to streamline internal operations. Cashiers can silently summon head cashiers, loss prevention officers, or inventory backroom staff, while visual feedback is delivered instantly via the integrated ultra-bright LED indicator upon every button press.
