Many facilities need a solid communication system for public safety and to keep daily operations flowing smoothly. Public address (PA) systems ably supported these needs for years when the level of communications required was relatively simple. Today, however, the scope of communications has evolved, requiring a more sophisticated system that supports both audible and visual modes of messaging to effectively deliver a wide range of information— alarms, routine announcements, safety instructions, reminders, live and pre-recorded paging, wayfinding, voice lift, audio enhancement, intercom, and bells throughout floors, buildings, and campuses. IP endpoints, which include various types of loudspeakers, displays, and other peripherals, satisfy a broad spectrum of communications requirements by effectively and reliably delivering critical information in a manner that is understood by everyone. Many times, these mass comm technologies are tied into life safety systems, requiring built in redundancy and reliability.
Audiovisual integrators possess the skills and expertise to design, install and maintain mass communication systems. Comprising a head end and a variety of IP endpoints (with speakers, with displays, with microphones), mass communication systems tie into security and AV solutions already installed in these facilities, for expansive coverage and enhanced capabilities.
Extend the Unified Communications Ecosystem
AtlasIED IPX endpoints complement the Unified Communication (VoIP communications) investment including on-premise and hosted infrastructure platforms so that information can be pushed to people and spaces beyond the world of desktop telephony communication, breaking traditional audio-path barriers.
Don’t Be Limited to Network Only Communication
For those environments where both “On and Off” network-wide communication delivery solutions are needed, AtlasIED offers connectivity into any analog audio system, analog legacy public address system, or analog audio endpoint(s), providing true enterprise-wide emergency alerts and general notifications in every location.
Compliant with Leading Notification Applications
AtlasIED IPX endpoints register as a communication endpoint directly within Singlewire®, GLOBALCOM, and Syn-Apps® notification applications, supporting audio and/or scrolling text alerts and visual signaling to enhance physical security while improving day-to-day communications through advanced alerting, bell schedules and pre-recorded, live & scheduled announcements, while leveraging the WAN or LAN network architecture.
Be Confident That Notifications are Clearly Understood By All
In addition to IPX audio only endpoints, AtlasIED offers endpoints with displays to support ADA compliant “effective communication”.
