Description
The AtlasIED IPS-ZC4 SIP-to-Analog 4-endpoint zone gateways are an excellent solution for expanding communication capabilities off-network to establish analog overhead paging systems. This is particularly useful in situations where SIP servers or VoIP communication platforms do not inherently support paging functions, or when integration with third-party notification systems is unnecessary.
Applications
The AtlasIED IPS-ZC4 SIP-to-Analog gateways can register as SIP devices directly with a SIP server or VoIP communication platform, offering up to 15 paging groups through its 4-zone outputs. When a paging number is dialed, the IPS-ZC4 creates a one-way voice link to its pre-assigned analog outputs for effective paging distribution.
Within a Cisco environment, these SIP-to-Analog 4-endpoint zone gateways from AtlasIED integrate seamlessly with Cisco’s Unified Survivable Remote Site Telephony (SRST) architecture. Cisco’s SRST ensures call-processing redundancy for remote locations when connectivity to the main Cisco Unified Communications Manager is disrupted, such as during a WAN outage. The capability to maintain LAN communication across phones and speakers with visual alerts is essential, especially during emergencies which might be the cause of the WAN disruption.
These gateways are ideal for corporate settings, educational institutions, entertainment venues, industrial sites, government facilities, healthcare institutions, houses of worship, and transportation hubs—anywhere there is a need for essential alerts or public announcements through a unified communications system.
