6 Why Audio? EFFICIENCY IN SECURITY OPERATIONS Reduces vulnerability to incidents Improve response time Provide single point of control Lower man-hour requirements Provide virtual presence to remote locations for situational awareness and management Humans respond to real-time voice audio more quickly 6

7 Trends MASS NOTIFICATION Intelligible Audio INTERCOM DOOR RELEASE Access Control IP CAMERAS With Loud Voice and Audio Analytics EMERGENCY CALL STATIONS Deter Detect Delay Respond Inform

8 Trends Adding Voice to Access Control and CCTV Adding Loud Voice Apps Apps and More Apps Making Ones Security System INTERACTIVE instead Of REACTIVE. Interoperable and Scalable Intercom and PA Solutions

9 Trends INTELLIGIBILITY crystal clear audio SIMPLICITY maximum capability with minimal hardware INTEROPERABILITY with other security and audio systems FLEXIBILITY scalable solutions

11 Be Aware of Codes and Regulations and the Almighty AHJ Mass Notification to be part of the fire alarm/life safety system. Permits a mass notification control unit to take control of fire alarm notification appliances including amplifiers, speakers, and strobes. MNEC has highest priority over fire alarm. Will require a MNEC voice message any time the priority is granted to the mass notification control unit. Operation of MNS system is based on the emergency response plan. Intelligibility of voice messages are required to meet the requirements of Chapter 7 (Notification). Visual notification to be completed through strobes, textual, graphic or video displays. Chapter 24 of NFPA 72 for 2010

25 Enhanced Audio Messaging Has Become More Important In Todays MNEC World Live PA and group call broadcast with recall for handling feedback and verifying messages Pre-stored PA and group call broadcast Scheduled or event-based PA and group call broadcast Auto-attendant with voice guided menus for handling incoming calls Voice response for call request waiting messages and absence messages Integration with 3rd party systems via OPC, SDK and other Data Protocol Audio storage capacity Set of default audio messages Interactive complex message generation Need to create messages on a PC and upload these to the Audio Server

28 Intelligibility Not Everything Sounds The Same What is Audio Codec?

29 Stress Duress Activity Noise

30 Level 0 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Level 5 Level 6 Level 7 Active Noise Reduction

31 The Future IP on Everything

32 LEVERAGING THE POWER OF IP Robust native IP backbone No Encoders! Inside the exchanges Inside the stations As a protocol for easy integration As a method to create large networks of intercom systems As a method to reduce hardware As a method to reduce installation time

34 FLEXIBILITY: Scalable Solutions AlphaCom Pulse SIP IP + Analog IP IP

35 SIP Stations SIP IP stations can now be directly connected via IP No additional hardware required IE. Avaya and Cisco customers can now benefit from High Definition Audio Tamper/weather resistant stations Offers Active Noise Cancellation - ideal for outdoor/gate applications

36 SIP - Session Initiated Protocol Public Network Intercom Gateway Analogue ISDN (I)PBX Phones ipad iphones

37 SIP is only a protocol Protocol = messages/language Services offered by SIP equipment SIP end points & SIP servers SIP SIP RTP 37

45 45 When CCTV and VOICE Join Forces: Trespassing CCTV detects movement Auto audio messaging Security threat Active video monitoring Push to talk using DAK Sound detection Gunshots, scream, breaking glass etc Endura activates camera Assault attacks Victim pushes button on station Both visual and audio contact The best of two worlds gives enhanced security level in critical situations

46 Supervision & Critical Communication Monitoring When Life Or Death or Big Money Is Involved It Has To Work

47 Redundancy 1+1 redundancy solution (one XE server in standby) Use AlphaCom redundant IP interface Monitor status (keep alive) Synchronization of configuration If failure, standby takes over operational IP address with configuration of failed server Redundant server can be in other physically protected area LAN Standby Operation Redundancy
