AtlasIED IP-SM indoor wall/ceiling mount IP speakers with talkback leverage the VoIP communication solution to extend tele-presence with enhanced audio for those environments where network-wide communication is desired and that require large speakers with high output to overcome high ambient noise areas or large spaces.
AtlasIED IP-SM registers as a communication endpoint directly within InformaCast, and SA-Announce Advanced Notification applications, supporting audio broadcast to enhance physical security while improving day-to-day communications through advanced alerting, bell schedules, pre-recorded, scheduled announcements, & intercom, while leveraging the WAN/LAN Network Architecture.
When used within a Cisco Environment, these same IP speakers from AtlasIED can join Cisco's Unified Survivable Remote Site Telephony (SRST) as a supported device within SRST endpoint Architecture. Cisco's SRST provides remote location call-processing redundancy when access to the centralized Cisco Unified Communications Manager is interrupted because of a WAN outage. The ability of LAN communication between any combination of phones and speakers is particularly critical during an emergency.
IP-SM indoor speakers are fitted with a coaxial speaker that is optimized for voice intelligibility. The grills for the IP-SM IP speakers are made of metal construction that provides security and durability in commercial applications. IP-SM includes an omnidirectional subminiature, electret condenser microphone that is mounted behind the grille's steel perforation material adjacent to the speaker to allow two-way communication and/or monitoring from the speaker location to any PC or phone handset.
The IP-SM features include auto-provisioning and auto-registration. This is an easy and time-saving way to configure the IP speakers on your Voice VLAN, similar to a VoIP handset. By sitting on the same VLAN, both VoIP phones and IP speakers share the same Quality of Service (QoS) so communications are always secure and guaranteed.
