Airport in Texas Deploys XOP Networks’ Ringdown Firebar Crash Phone System
Dallas, Texas (PRWEB) February 01, 2017 -- XOP Networks, Inc., a manufacturer of advanced conference bridges recently deployed its IP based Crash Phone system at an airport in Texas.
Ringdown Firebar Conference Systems are typically deployed as "Crash Phone" systems at the Airports, Air Force bases and at campus locations that are prone to emergency situations such as Nuclear Power Plants, Chemical plants, Oil and gas installations etc. A person close to the emergency can simply lift the handset on a designated Crash phone and trigger dial out calls to other Crash phones. As first responders answer these calls they are automatically placed into an audio conference with the initiator.
XOP Networks’ Ring Down Firebar Conference Server (RFCS) product is a robust Linux based platform that is designed to fulfill the emergency conferencing needs of the first responders. It's built-in FXS and SIP based VoIP gateway architecture not only allows the use of typical analog emergency ‘Red Phones' but also allows the use of VoIP/SIP phones and other IP based peripherals such as IP based paging devices etc.
The Texas airport deployed XOP Networks’ IP based RFCS as the as the Primary Crash phone system, and in addition, the airport deployed XOP’s traditional analog RFCS as the Secondary backup server. This approach resulted in following benefits to the airport authority:
• Reduced cost – eliminated expensive carrier leased lines
• Highly available network that meets FAA standards
• Superb audio quality
• Built-in recordings and comprehensive call logs
• Optional automatic scheduling to facilitate testing & training
"Having support for both legacy FXS ports and next generation VoIP ports allows the product to be deployed standalone or be integrated with PBX or IP PBX that may be deployed on site. This allows emergency conferences to be triggered from ATC tower, or from remote 911 dispatch" said Sudhir Gupta, CEO, XOP Networks.
