Forum's Confer ECS - Emergency Collaboration System provides unique
"CRASH BLAST" and "GLOBAL BLAST" functions allowing
lines in use to be cleared immediately, opening up lines that need to be
used for critical and priority emergency response requirements.
The Confer ECS is the most advanced system of its kind and is ideally suited for Homeland Security, weather-related disasters, medical response teams, plant safety, facility emergency management, police, fire, schools and corporate security.
The Confer ECS is a superior value combining low-cost, easy-to-install, easy-of-use in one emergency response solution. The Confer ECS easily expands from 16 to 72 ports and is designed for compatibility with all phone systems including Inter-Tel, Avaya, Nortel, NEC, Siemens, Mitel, and Iwatsu. Simply connect it to analog ports much like you would for voicemail or a voice response system.
“If your application requires dedicated ring down circuits, Forum Communications provides the Confer A.L.E.R.T. system. If you need both ring down and dial-out, ask about the Confer ALERT Plus.”

Crash Blast Modes
This industry break-through allows you to conference everyday calls and provides immediate priority access for emergencies:
Crash Blast - phone numbers can be blast dialed for each conference; programming is simple and easy to update. Save multiple lists to non-volatile memory Special Control mode allows dispatcher to initiate blast dial without being in the call
AutoBlast - allows the system to automatically blast dial conference members and optionally add the CM (Control Monitor) port to the call CM ports on the individual ECS call groups can be used to initiate specialized response teams
Global Crash Blast - immediately terminates all on-going meet-me conference and reconfigures the ECS into one primary maximum-sized conference, then blast dials all ports for immediate command-control conversations.
Remote Control Monitoring
System administrator or Dispatch Supervisor can dial into CM port of the Confer ECS to confirm/change configurations, monitor multiple on-going conference calls or confirm/change Authorization Codes.
