How does it work?

This infrstructure is complemented by two essential equipment: Ascom Protector phones and Unite CM Messaging Suite. This infrastucture provides a real time and effective distribution of alarms, voluntary or involuntary. When an alarm is created from a Protector mobile the Unite CM identifies which type of alarm is generated, who generates, when is generated and where. This information is sent to the specified personal by message to phones (DECT, WiFi, GSM), PCs or another third party alarm systems. Also, the Protector phones includes special active protection functionalities like acustic functions (making sound a powerfull siren) and estabilish automatic call to the specified security groups when the alarm is generated. Any alarm detected and/or any further action are register in the system to have full details of the event.
