Forum
Communications has a solid reputation for durable conference systems for
government and business applications. Responding to the increased need for
reliable emergency communication solutions, Forum's system is a form fit
replacement for outdated "crash" and "red phone" systems.
Serving the Homeland Security/Public Safety Sector
The next generation of Emergency Response Collaboration is the Confer
ALERT Plus
.
The ALERT Plus allows not only local campus dedicated lines to ring but can call outside (PSTN) phone numbers in order to contact key emergency management personnel by cell phone.
In addition, ALERT Plus allows outside callers to initiate a blast of
campus phones. An authorization code protects the system from being triggered
by a wrong number or telemarketer. The ALERT Plus allows one or more phones
to be class-marked as "Blast Initiator" (BI). Any phone marked
as a BI can initiate the crash blast simply by picking up the emergency
phone handset (on campus phone) or by calling in from the PSTN.
To maximize the impact of the ALERT Plus, peripheral equipment items such
as emergency phones with unique ringer and handset retention (desk or wall
mount), remote contact closure modules, remote PA/Speaker modules, and remote
PA output modules are now offered that make Forum your single source for
turnkey emergency crash
system
equipment needs.
Crash Communication Needs to be Seamless.
Don’t try another solution that ALMOST fits…
Work with Forum’s design team to customize the ALERT Plus to fit your specific needs -- PBX and Internet/VoIP ARE NOT SEAMLESS!
