SA-Announce
The SA-Announce Notification System is a feature-rich notification system which provides text and audio notifications across an enterprise. The notifications can be real time, such as emergency alerts and live audio notifications (paging/intercom), or they can be scheduled. SA-Announce integrates the phone system with a large number of disparate end points such as IP Phones, Legacy Overhead Systems, IP Speakers, Email, Everbridge, Syn-Apps Paging Relay, and Alertus devices. Notifications can be made by simply picking up the phone and dialing the notification group directory number.
The SA-Announce Notification System has numerous audio streaming models that can be used to accommodate almost any notification requirements from one centralized server. With the addition of the Syn-Apps Paging Relay (a unicast to multicast device) even non-multicast enabled wide-area networks can provide notification to all remote sites using one centralized SA-Announce server. Streaming models include Unicast, Server Sourced Multicast and Phone Sourced Multicast.
