The Alpinestars A-Connect Communication System is an integrated motorcycle communication unit developed specifically for Alpinestars S-R7 Motorcycle Helmets, giving track and sport riders a reliable way to stay connected while riding. Combining Mesh Intercom 3.0, WAVE cellular connectivity and Bluetooth 5.3, the A-Connect provides flexible communication for group rides, navigation, calls and entertainment, with automatic switching between Mesh and WAVE to help maintain connectivity over longer distances.
Mesh Intercom 3.0 supports communication of up to 2 km (1.4 miles) in open terrain, with open or private groups and virtually unlimited riders. For longer-distance communication, WAVE uses cellular connectivity, while Bluetooth 5.3 provides compatibility with other Bluetooth intercom systems as well as smartphones and navigation devices. Automatic Mesh-to-WAVE switching helps keep communication seamless as riding conditions and network requirements change.
Audio quality is supported by second-generation 40 mm Harman Kardon high-resolution speakers, while AI-powered noise reduction and echo cancellation help provide clearer communication in the challenging acoustic environment of a motorcycle helmet. An integrated high-fidelity wired microphone completes the audio system, with enhanced voice commands providing hands-free control of calls, music, navigation and intercom functions.
The A-Connect is powered by a dual-core CPU for responsive operation and offers up to 20 hours of talk time in Bluetooth intercom mode. USB-C Quick Charge allows a full recharge in approximately 2.5 hours, while Auto Stand-by helps conserve battery when the system is not in use. With an IPX5 water-resistant rating when mounted, the unit is designed for use in changing weather conditions.
Weighing approximately 100g, the A-Connect features a compact four-key control unit with status LED and has been purpose-built for installation neatly into the S-R7 helmet. The system's software integrates seamlessly with the Sena Motorcycles and Sena WAVE Intercom apps enabling device configuration, group setup and over-the-air firmware updates, making the A-Connect a sophisticated communication solution for connected motorcycle riding.
