8420 IP Dual-Sided Display Speaker

IP Dual-Sided Visual Display Speaker for Visual and Audible Alerting and Notification Algo’s 8420 IP Dual-Sided Visual Display Speaker is a dual-sided, SIP-compliant notification device that comprises three core components – 15.6″ LCD screens, high-intelligibility speakers, and high-visibility LED flashers – to create highly flexible and effective visual and audible communication. The combined functionality of the LCD display screens, speakers, and flashing LEDs enable voice paging, visual or audible alerting, and informational visual content, such as scrolling text messages, visual paging, or graphic images to be conveyed in opposite directions. Visual Display Screen The 8420 comprises two 15.6” LCD screens that display identical content down hallways, corridors, and large, open environments. The wide-angle LCD screens ensure effective visual communication can be optimally viewed at any angle from both directions. When not in use, the display screens can be configured to auto-dim during off-hours. With the complete flexibility of the LCD display screens, any combination of images, text, or clock can be presented. A number of preloaded display options are available, such as lockdown, emergency, weather alerts, etc. However, the LCD screens are fully customizable to allow for communication with specific branding and environmental requirements. The display clock can be shown as either analog or digital and is synchronized with NTP. High Intelligibility Speakers (HD Audio) Designed for optimum clarity of sound with wideband audio (HD G.722 voice codec), the dual-sided speakers in the 8420 have the same level of intelligibility and quality as all Algo IP Speakers. Wideband audio produces high-intelligibility speech for clear and crisp IP paging, announcements, and notifications. Algo speakers include an embedded microphone to enable ambient noise response and two-way talkback. With ambient ambient noise detection activated, the volume will automatically adjust to an appropriate level based on the environment. For environments that are noise sensitive or may not allow sound at all, the visual display and the flashers are used for attention-grabbing alerts and notifications. High-Visibility LED Flashers With three color options available – red, amber, and green – the LED flashers on either side of the 8420 allow for multi-color alerting. Color coding can be used to represent different kinds of notifications and alerts. Paired with the multiple flash patterns available, a user has complete flexibility in their mass notification environment. The flashers also allow for different intensities to be either the most attention-getting or to be a little more subtle based on the environment. Utilizing the IP Display Speaker as an Integrated Solution With the combination of dual-sided speakers, LCD screens, and flashers, the 8420 IP Display Speaker is a highly customizable and flexible mass communication device. While an audible page is being made, the message could also be displayed as scrolling text on the screen so those who may not be able to hear an announcement clearly can also read the message to ensure they receive the full details. In an emergency situation, such as a lockdown, the flashers can be used to quickly capture attention and instruction can be played over the speakers and screen.
