Wireless Emergency Alert System
In the event of an emergency, reliable communications ensures that the problem is handled as quickly and efficiently as possible. By using a Cotel Emergency Transmit Point, an "Emergency" alarm can be raised by anyone and all personnel with a Cotel SiteMaster Radio Unit will hear the message, allowing first responders to react immediately to the situation, ensuring that everyones health and safety is the primary consideration of the organisation.
Due to the simplicity of the hardware and robust construction, all the user has to do is push the red button and the pre-recorded "Emergency" message will be broadcast over the entire radio network. The simple operation ensures that anyone in the vicinity can raise the alarm. This system works especially well in environments such as a gym or swimming pool, where anyone can see a problem, press the button and get it sorted.
The Cotel Emergency Transmit Point is cost-effective to deploy and will seamlessly integrate into your existing wireless radio communications system. The system can be configured with one or many transmit points, and the "Emergency" message can be recorded by you or by ourselves.
The NEXUS Emergency wireless alarm system uses a secure wireless mesh protocol to provide a long-range, robust system, designed to alert personnel to anything from threats, fires, danger or emergencies. A combination of loud audible tones and flashing lamps will ensure safety is always maintained. With a wireless range of 1km line-of-sight between units, and a maximum of 16 mesh hops, the NEXUS alarm system has a potential range of 16km. There is a maximum of 64 units per site, and when one NEXUS unit is activated, it will trigger ALL units in range to sound an audible emergency message, accompanied by a flashing beacon light.
