Emergency Communications Solutions
Total Emergency
Response Solutions
that Protect People
and Property
In an emergency, the need
is immediate.
We can customize a real-time emergency
notification system — audible and visual
notification, as well as text displays — to
share lifesaving information inside and
outside of your buildings. Our layered
approach to emergency communication
allows a number of different solutions
to be brought together to form a
comprehensive solution. From emergency
voice systems, fire alarm voice systems
to multi-candela amber strobes and visual
displays, our solutions can warn of fire
conditions, episodes of violence, severe
weather and other emergencies.
Installed and serviced by one company,
with one point of accountability, we
can strengthen your life-safety program
with an emergency communications
solution that integrates into your
existing infrastructure as well as your
pertinent policies, procedures and
operations related to safety and security.
The resulting cost efficiencies can be
significant.
We help your systems work together as
a unified whole. We’ll match your needs
to the most effective technologies at
affordable prices, employing resilient
platforms and interactive operations
with fire and security to provide
comprehensive solutions. Additionally, we
can support your entire lifecycle,
including testing, inspection, preventive
maintenance and 24/7 emergency
service.

Emergency Communications Solutions
Interior Voice Systems
Our high-survivability interior voice
systems – based upon fire alarm networks
like the Simplex 4100ES – can instantly
broadcast live or recorded messages
with crystal-clear audio. You can send a
universal message or individual messages
tailored to different areas, buildings,
floors, and rooms for a completely
customized approach.
Outdoor Speaker Systems
Our advanced systems offer wide
coverage for areas that encompass acres
or miles, and can include off-site buildings
and satellite property. Messages can be
customized to specific buildings, areas, or
points of egress.
Duress Buttons
Like emergency call stations, duress
buttons can be life-saving devices if
and when needed. Like call stations, they
are addressable (to pinpoint caller location)
and can include video for real-time
monitoring. Place them in hallways, near
elevators, or other locations where they
can be most useful.
Emergency Call Stations
These wall-mounted call stations and
standalone kiosks are addressable
(to pinpoint caller location) and can include
video for real-time monitoring. Whether
you have indoor call stations, outdoor call
stations, or both, they can be integrated
with other Tyco SimplexGrinnell systems
or third-party emergency communications
equipment.
