Mass Notification Systems for Airports Airports are the backbone of domestic and international business travel and are vital to a country’s tourism industry. Millions of people work and visit airports daily and can be exposed to all types of threats: weather-related, terrorist activity, take off crash incidents, or blackouts. One of the key components to the security, public safety, and protection of an airport’s critical infrastructure is a layered Mass Notification System. Cooper Notification’s Mass Notification System (MNS) is the most reliable system available – designed especially to serve your airports’ needs today and well into the future. From one simple-to-use interface, Cooper Notification’s MNS allows you to deliver live or recorded event-specific instructions within seconds to voice-based sirens, indoor and outdoor speakers as well as cell phones and desktop computers. Existing security systems, such as fire alarm, intrusion detection, and sensors can integrate with Cooper Notification’s MNS for improved system management and situation awareness. This easy-to-use and interoperable system allows users to focus on the emergency at hand without being slowed down trying to activate multiple systems. Regardless of the size or layout of your airport, Cooper Notification’s MNS is customizable to meet your needs. You can build your notification system one layer at a time, starting with an emergency text messaging system, outdoor “Giant Voice” speaker system, or a comprehensive mass notification system solution. With this modular and scalable system, you have the ability to add and integrate the different systems as funds become available or as your needs and requirements change. Cooper Notification’s comprehensive solution is designed to protect, alert, and inform people within seconds of what to do before, during and after an event. Protect. Alert. Inform. The right message, to the right people at the right time Cooper Notification’s Mass Notification Solutions for Airports An effective emergency communications system can include some or all of the following MNS systems, depending on your needs and requirements. Emergency Text and Voice Alerting System The patented Roam Secure Alert Network (RSAN), which can be quickly implemented, is a web-based communications system that allows you to send messages simultaneously to multiple media, including SMS text messaging, voice calls, and email notification. Desktop Notification System Cooper Desktop Notification allows you to send realtime messages to computer desktops across enterprise network environments. This intrusive alert takes precedence over all other open windows and programs and can activate sound upon delivery. Indoor Mass Notification Systems SAFEPATH® provides supervised emergency voice communications with paging, background music and voice messaging. SAFEPATH can integrated with your existing fire alarm control panel and be installed in nonpublic areas that might not be covered by the Public Address system. Outdoor Warning Systems WAVES® (Wireless Audio Visual Emergency System) intrusive High Power Speaker Arrays (HPSAs) broadcast intelligible voice messages tones and sirens, covering large areas with crisp warnings. HPSAs can be placed in outdoor public areas or near your tarmac and integrated with intrusion detection systems. Interoperable Communications Through the Roam Secure Information Exchange (RSIX), you can link your airport’s RSAN text and voice messaging system to other RSAN systems, including local government and other airports. It provides a secure channel for emergency information sharing. RSIX also connects you to local information sources (traffic, news, weather service monitoring systems) to fully automate alerting, reducing the time and effort to send alerts.
