Alert Beacons® are designed to serve campuses, military bases, and other large facilities that presently lack an in-building emergency notification system and where retrofitting a conventional voice public address system is impractical and cost prohibitive. Alert Beacons are most effective when wall-mounted in prominent locations throughout the facility. In the event of an emergency, these devices flash and sound to capture the attention of building occupants at a distance and display a custom message about the nature of the emergency and how to respond.

Key Features

• Affordable: A fraction of the cost of a conventional voice PA system with no recurring fees

• ADA Compliant: Notifies everyone using both visible and audible alerts to accommodate the deaf and hard-of-hearing

• Zoneable: Notifications can be sent to all or select Alert Beacons across facilities depending on whether the emergency event is isolated

• Green: Consumes <5 watts (1/6 of a fluorescent light)

• Redundant Communication Capable: Receives notifications from the on-premise server through one or multiple pathways: Ethernet (standard), WiFi, FM Radio Subcarrier, or RF Paging
