IP/PoE Audio Solution for Lockdown Alerts

[Bodet_Simon]

All schools need to have a lockdown procedure in place, and an IP/PoE Lockdown Alert System is a quick and efficient method to inform all pupils and staff of a lockdown situation.

 

Bodet’s Lockdown Alert System allows you to broadcast a unique lockdown alert, separate from other emergency alerts, at the touch of a button. It functions on your existing IT network, featuring wall/ceiling mounted sounders, PC software, smartphone applications and a range of accessories. Our Harmonys Flash and Harmonys Trio units also feature strobe lighting to signal alerts for the hearing impaired, in noisy environments or should you require a silent alarm.

 

Lockdown Alert Trigger methods include:

 

• A wired Multi-button Control Panel connected to your IT network which can broadcast a school-wide lockdown emergency alert on button press.
  
• Wireless Remote Control, with up to 1km range from receiver connected to a central unit (subject to interference), and acknowledgement of receipt upon press.
  
• GSM Control Box, with options to trigger alert by phonecall, and also send SMS messages to registered numbers upon triggering.
  
• Harmonys Notify, an app for smartphones and PCs which acts as a virtual control box to broadcast emergency alerts remotely (smartphones must be on same VLAN as Harmonys System).
  

This Lockdown Alert System can either be stand-alone, or part of a larger IP/PoE system which can also include Class Change, Synchronised Clocks, PA functionality and music streaming. This system can also be used to broadcast scheduled reminders about coronavirus safety measures throughout the school day, such as remembering to wash your hands and maintaining social distancing where possible.
