Volume 22
Welcome
If you plan to attend the 2014 NFPA Conference and Expo in Las Vegas, June 9-11, we've included a registration link to the Expo below. We invite you to visit booth #1434 to learn about Keltron's latest solutions and product enhancements for life safety event management.
News From the Field
We know that telephone lines are quickly becoming obsolete for alarm signaling – they are slow, faulty and expensive compared to broadband Ethernet (IP), but how can you get from telephone lines to Ethernet alarm signaling without chaos at your facility?
Here is how Florida Atlantic University did it: faced with a failing alarm receiver and expensive telephone lines, FAU installed a UL listed and code-compliant, campus wide fire alarm monitoring system consisting of auto-failover, redundant Keltron digital alarm communicator receivers to receive the DACT signals and send them to the auto-failover, redundant Keltron LS 7000 life safety event management system.
By adding the Keltron LS 7000 system, FAU established a migration path to using its robust Ethernet backbone for future alarm signaling. Since the Keltron system can receive signals via both telephone lines and Ethernet within the same system, this cost-effective solution provides immediate dispatch efficiency and accuracy and enables a transition that fits the University's time schedule and budgetary requirements.
New Product News
The reliable Keltron DMP703 alarm receiver is deployed at thousands of municipalities and facilities throughout the country, patiently receiving all types of legacy signaling for years and years. Upgrade your Keltron receiver with a new printer and LCD display:
