SIP Gateway
A 1U rack-mount server bridging IP telephony with PA/VA infrastructure. Distributes audio from SIP telephones and smartphones to voice alarm system lines, while delivering the additional functionality of a commercial sound system.
Messages can be added, deleted, scheduled and routed to dynamically assigned distribution zones from a web interface — without affecting the evacuation configuration held in the VAS control unit.
RTP
Key Features
Audio distribution from SIP telephones and smartphones into PA/VA system lines, with full register-and-route support for third-party IP PBX systems.
Loudspeaker zones programmed in MULTIVES / miniVES Selector are mapped to "hunting groups" addressable by phone number or DTMF code via a graphical interface.
Browser-based admin panel for adding and deleting messages, configuring broadcast schedules and dynamically establishing distribution zones — independent of the VAS evacuation configuration.
Intel Xeon platform with dual Gigabit LAN, SSD storage and Linux operating system in a 1U rack chassis (43 × 437 × 290 mm).
