Alert via PA system

DAKS-AudioConnect

DAKS-AudioConnect connects your telephone world for example with an PA infrastructure or loudspeaker systems. For example, you can output prepared announcements or live announcements directly to PA loudspeaker systems via your telephone.

In many cases, this enables you to reach a large number of people simultaneously with just one call – for example, to quickly and efficiently evacuate a building in case of a major incident (e.g. fire). Campus operators and transport companies also use this functionality – the latter to play back current announcements or general information via the loudspeakers of selected stops in a process-controlled and individual manner.

DAKS-AudioConnect therefore offers you the ability to use processes stored in DAKS for extended deployment scenarios. More complex scenarios can be implemented customer-specifically via a convenient browser-based user interface.
