Wireless Emergency Alert System

Overview

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.
