SAN JOSE, Calif. — Vivotek announce the launch of its new Network Audio Solutions. Now available, the system includes the AU-001 Network Horn Speaker and the AU-002 Network Audio Driver.
“A variety of our cameras are the most optimal for setting specific video analytic detection events and synchronizing Vivotek audio devices,” explains David Liu, president of Vivotek USA. “As such, our new Network Audio Solutions have been integrated with our VAST 2 VMS software into these systems.”
Liu continues, “This can apply in diverse situations to improve security on premises, properties and restricted zones with event-triggered announcements, providing an intelligent surveillance solution while reducing management costs.”
The indoor/outdoor AU-001 Network Horn Speaker provides a long range 106 dB voice alarm. It’s compatible with VAST 2 and allows users to upload their own audio clips on VAST 2 for broadcasting.
With an all-metal housing and a dust and water tight IP66 rating, the AU-001 can be placed anywhere, enabling a flexible, scalable and cost-effective approach to system design, according to the company. It is said to be easy to install, can be remotely configured and can be powered up with built-in PoE (Power over Ethernet).
The AU-002 Network Speaker Driver solution converts a traditional analog speaker to a network speaker. It supports SIP and UDP Broadcast Protocols, has a built-in 20W power amplifier to drive speakers directly, is powered from the IP network cable using PoE+ IEEE 802.3at, and has remote configuration and firmware upgrade via HTTPS.
