Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) hazardous area intercom

08 December 2009

Tyco Fire & Integrated Solutions are introducing a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) capability to their certified 'Mentor Digital' intercom systems.

Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) hazardous area intercom

A typical application of 'Mentor Digital' requires direct dial point-to point duplex speech, plus all-call or zoned announcements made over the integral loudspeakers, from any field station. The 'Mentor Digital' system utilises a central exchange offering almost limitless expansion and provides advanced features including onboard menus, conference calls, call transfers, error recognition and system diagnostics. These features make the system user friendly and enhance the integrity of the Mentor System, when used in safety critical applications.

It can also interface with Public Address, PABX and Handheld Radio systems, as well as providing system status indications to other host systems, which means that the system can be fully integrated with other installation communication systems to give greater flexibility in use.

The VoIP 'Mentor Digital' intercom system offers enhanced installation and operational flexibility, whilst retaining the integrity expected from a system designed for use in hazardous area applications.
