Alertus + Axis
A Unified Approach to Safety
Elevating Emergency Communication through Rapid, reliable response
Clear, consistent communication is vital during emergencies. The integration of Axis IP Speakers and Surveillance Cameras with the robust Alertus System provides a best-in-class, reliable solution for rapid danger identification and the immediate dissemination of critical alerts to both on-site and off-site personnel.
The Power of Multicast Technology: How Our Integrations Work
Leverage Existing Assets
Easily convert your current notification assets—including IP speakers, VoIP phones, computers, and digital signage—into a robust alerting system through seamless integration.
Immediate, Actionable Intelligence
Deliver immediate, targeted insights to facilitate critical decision-making and timely communication across your organization.
Advanced Analytics
Utilize motion detection, direction detection, and more for complete emergency notification coverage with smart camera technology and emergency alerting.
The Axis + Alertus integration leverages Axis camera analytics to instantly initiate high-impact alerts through the Alertus Mass Notification System, while transforming existing Axis IP speakers into a fast, multicast-enabled facility security solution.
Axis IP Speaker
Leverage Axis IP Speakers and multicast technology for efficient distribution of audible emergency notifications. The Alertus Server generates clear, specific emergency instructions using advanced Text-to-Speech (TTS) voice synthesis and multicasts these intelligible announcements to the designated Axis Communication IP speakers.
| Key Benefits of the Axis IP Speaker Integration | |
|---|---|
| Feature | The Value Add |
| Efficient Group Targeting | Quickly initiate emergencies across predefined physical or multicast groups by leveraging existing multicast configurations or creating new ones directly from the Alertus Server. |
| Cost-Effective and Secure | Maximize your investment by securely utilizing your existing IP speaker infrastructure for emergency notifications. |
| Centralized Control | Effortlessly manage multicast groups and system configurations directly from a single point—the Alertus Console. |
| Unified System Management | Ensure every voice is heard with emergency notifications delivered to any speaker group using audio tones, flexible text-to-speech messages, and pre-recorded, multi-language instructions. |
Specifications
IP Speaker Compatibility
Alertus IP Speaker Annunciation is compatible with any Axis network speaker that is capable of multicast audio*, ensuring seamless integration with your existing or new systems. Below are some of the compatible models:
*Devices must be in standalone mode, and not actively using either of the Axis Audio Manager platforms (Edge and Pro).
*Please note, it is crucial that the server is on the same network as the devices to support alert transmission via multicast.
Axis Surveillance Camera Systems
Enhance your facility's security with real-time control by integrating Axis camera analytics directly with the Alertus Server. Leverage a robust notification scripting engine and configure custom event activations for instant, automated responses.
| Key Benefits of the Axis Surveillance Camera Integration | |
|---|---|
| Feature | The Value Add |
| Fully Customizable Actions | Create responsive and customizable actions to automatically send notifications to the Alertus Server, ensuring rapid and targeted communication based on specific events. |
| Instant Alerting | Eliminate delays and human error by instantly sending notifications when an event occurs, ensuring security staff are informed in real-time without needing to constantly monitor live video feeds. |
| REST API | Leverage a scalable and easily implemented REST API for seamless software integration into any environment, providing maximum flexibility and future-proofing your system. |
| Advanced Analytics | Utilize the Axis AI engine to power advanced camera analytics that can detect critical events like crowd formation, unauthorized entry, or panic button activations, giving security staff immediate, actionable insights. |
These powerful integrations deliver more than just interconnected hardware; they create a unified, intelligent approach to safety.
