Code Blue: Help Points, Emergency Call Boxes & Alert Systems Migration to VoIP

Synopsis
Code Blue Corporation offers Emergency Communications solutions which include a wide variety of End Points. Their platform supports all kinds of Emergency Phones, Call Boxes, Access Control Terminals and Emergency Notification devices. Some End Points only support Analog. Newer models are available with native SIP interfaces, but existing installed devices need to connect via SIP to the system. Legacy cable infrastructure also often dictates using analog end points.

The Picture
The SmartNode leverages copper connections to connect to analog end-points. These devices can now use ToolVox, Code Blue's systems management platform using individual SIP accounts for each extension to communicate with the IP network back to the ToolVox. Now Code Blue analog IA4100, IA500 and IA3100 are registered in the ToolVox.

The Success

Clients can migrate their analog devices to IP in phases and maintain functionality in a hybrid analog and IP environment
SmartNodes connect Code Blue FXS emergency end-point devices, integrating those devices into IP based systems.
SmartNodes can leverage on-campus and off-campus FXO trunks to enable any type of end point audio or telephony to traverse TDM infrastructure.
High density packaging of up to 32 analog FXS or FXO ports enables good use of existing wire closets to aggregate end point connectivity.
3rd Party Analog Speaker Phones can integrate with Code Blue's ToolVox IP-Based Security Management platform
Code Blue's ToolVox platform generates dial tone enabling clients to retire legacy PBXs.
SIP accounts mapped to FXS ports allows ToolVox to use UPD software providing full programming and diagnostic capabilities.
Each analog extension can refer to up to three different SIP Servers, providing for systems redundancy.
Analog end points can use single pair cables to support distances up to 3,600 feet at 3 REN (Ringer Equivalence Number)

They also support a wide range of 3rd party devices for integration into their system.
