TOA Partnership with Digital Watchdog®
The new partnership brings IP speaker management and control into a single DW Spectrum® IPVMS platform.
Secaucus, NJ – TOA Electronics Inc., a premier manufacturer of intelligent audio and security systems, and Digital Watchdog® (DW), the industry leader in digital recorders, surveillance cameras, system peripherals and related management software, announce the integration of TOA’s IP speaker system with DW Spectrum IPVMS video management platform. The partnership allows operators to combine public speaker systems with video, analytics, and access-control – managed from a single interface.
“Network audio adds value to your DW Spectrum-based security system helping you proactively deter crime by responding immediately and intervening remotely. We are thrilled TOA Electronics has joined the DW Spectrum ecosystem as a Technology Partner.”
- Patrick Kelly, Director of IP Sales
Digital Watchdog
TOA’s IP-A1SC15 IP-Horn Speaker can be added to a DW Spectrum IPVMS system using a local network connection. The integration will offer the option to combine the speaker system with video from the DW Spectrum desktop client interface. The IP horn speaker broadcasts crystal-clear pre-recorded voice messages or live speech announcements manually and automatically triggered by IP camera video alerts, image sensing, or motion detection video systems.
“The IP-A1SC15 is capable of SIP Direct Call, Multicast streaming, VMS broadcasting, and, in addition to control by the DW Spectrum IPVMS system, an IP control protocol is available as well. TOA software tools allow you to assign IP addresses to all IP horn speakers at set up by merely setting the first speaker network and host ID. All other device IP addresses are set automatically. Each IP-A1SC15 can be individually optimized to its unique environment.”
- Dan Shore, Engineer & Product Manager
