Hospital Intercom and Security Systems
Hospital Intercom System Because every Second Counts Commend's security and communication solution for hospitals and medical environments meets the strictest directives and regulations within the medical sector and provides direct multi-site communication across facility complexes. Protecting Patients and Staff Communicating on one Unified Platform Monitoring Patient Rooms Ensuring Surveillance and Control Securing Safety Medical staff is too often subject to attacks, both by unhappy patients and by stressed relatives. This calls for an hospital intercom system, exactly tailored to the needs of the medical facility and assisted living facilities. Silent Alarms will not be noticed by the assaultant to prevent further escalation. At the same time, access to secure zones can be granted locally from the nurses' stations to assure smooth and quick operation. One system for communication and Public Address Unified Communication at its best: Urgent calls from a surgical theatre to the emergency room, announcements in the corridors and waiting lounges, or nurses needing to listen into a patient room: All communication takes place via one single platform. This limits costs while giving the most flexibility. The SOC / Control room of all security operation will be the central hub, which is always prepared to take additional measures in case of an incident. Acoustic Patient Monitoring Even if they would like to do it, nurses cannot always stay in the room with a patient in more or less critical condition. So acousting surveillance of rooms, paired with the long-lasting experience of a nurse, will provide service excellence while assuring flexibility and cost control. Ensuring high audio quality is crucial for eliminating background noise and ensuring clear communication in these settings. Keeping the Global Overview Integration is the key to a perfect overview form the SOC / Control Room. This is the hub for all security services, as well as for others. It receives calls from Info Points all over the medical campus, takes the calls from the various visitor and staff car parks, as well as from all access points. In case of an incident, the SOC / Control Room starts the Emergency Operation Plan (EOP), perfectly supported by the Commend Intercom Solution deployed. Applications for Hospitals and Healthcare Facilities Communicating Intercom Stations for Medical Environments & Clean Rooms Conform to EN 60601-1 (2nd Edition) – Closed-sealed membrane surface – Special anti-bacterial membrane – Resistant against detergents and disinfectants.

Lift Intercom and Lift Alarm Systems
Security at all Levels Lift Intercom Lift Alarm You are managing a company campus, industrial site or other large building complex with a large number of lifts? Then you know what a challenge it is to keep track of everything and maintain technical systems in compliance with the latest standards. And what it means to ensure the smooth functioning of all lifts under your responsibility, and to be able to react as quickly as possible at lift alarms. Making your Lifts Safe and Sound Applications Operators of lift systems must ensure that trapped persons are freed as quickly as possible and that communication to and from the lift cars is guaranteed at all times. It is the only way to comply with the strict European standards of EN 81-28:2018. Compliance is the key In the whole European Union as well as in other countries that adopt most EU directives (like Switzerland or Norway), a Lift Intercom System in compliance with EN81-28:2018 is mandatory for all passenger lifts. This standard stipulates that a in case the lift car is stuck between floors with the doors closed, trapped passengers must have a hands-free intercom device allowing them to call the rescue organisation that will free them. Commend offers all compontents to meet this strict standard, and yet perfectly taylor it to the needs of your organisation. Secure Reliable Operational Secure connection to rescue organisations at all times In case persons are trapped in the lift cabin, they need secure communication. Once the lift alarm call to the rescue organisation is established, only authorized personnel will be able to cancel the communication. Trapped persons will be in communication with the rescue organisation at all times and stay informed on the process of the rescue operation. Illuminated symbols in accordance with EN81-28:2018 will give additional help. Regular tests for maximum security As foreseen by the standard, the Lift Intercom System is fully tested at least every three days, including a simulation of the physical pressing of the button. All tests are documented by the operator. Easy Communication without additional devices In case of questions during the lift maintenance work, you can easily and quickly establish a connection with one of your colleagues without being dependent on a walkie-talkie or cell phone. Here's how you can benefit Fully integrated Lift Intercoms Specially designed for use in lift cabins, on the cabin roof, the lift pit and in the machine room as well Hands-free, bidirectional voice communication Simple and intuitive operation via emergency button Automatic reassurance message in the cabin in case of a lift alarm Excellent HD audio voice quality with automatic background noise suppression Maximum reliability thanks to continuous line monitoring and cyclical loudspeaker/microphone self-tests Optimum, cost-efficient use of existing infrastructures and cabling Integrated hearing aid induction loop and other barrier-free options Holistic Solutions for Security Intercom throughout the Building Simple integration of lift communication into a building's control system with local control center Integration into a comprehensive emergency and danger response system (NRGS) with intelligent touch stations (further information can be found here on our ASBIS pages ) Optimum, central overview with status indication of the Intercom stations Which Technology to use? There are two technologies Commend recommends for Lift Intercom Solutions – both assuring highest availability and operational security. Both technologies are designed to create a solution fully complying with EN81-28:2018. You have the flexibility to choose the technology you prefer. Commend Lift Intercom solutions for elevator communication meet all requirements. Let us show you how to modernize your elevator communication to the state of the art and thus fulfill all legal requirements reliably. Digital 2-Wire Digital 2-wire is an established technology using an independent cabling that will allow up to 3.000m of length between the intercom server and the emergency call point in the lift cabin. The advantages are clear: even in tall buildings there is no issue running the Intercom cabling with the trailing cables of the lift. Thanks to the independent cabling highest operational security is given. Symphony BF Symphony BF is the perfect SIP-based IP platform for all security communications. Using an existing IT-infrastructure, this is the technology to create a cost-effective Lift Intercom Solution. Based on standard protocols it includes Commend’s Cyber Security features, including encryption for safe communication. Using the IP-Bridge, parts of the transmission can run via 2-wire cables, allowing the use of trailings cables for IT-connections as well. More Opportunities When you manage a large building or even a corporate campus, then you may want to integrate Lift Intercom in your holistic security concept. Commend Lift Intercom can become a part of the ASBIS (Advanced Security Building Intercom System) according to ISO EN 62820-2 and EN 62820-3-2. When an Emergeny Operation Plan (EOP) is activated, the Lift Intercom System will become part of the Emergency & Danger Response System (EDRS). Persons in the lift will be informed on the current emergency situation, and can be given directives what to do. Lift Intercom Applications Lift Intercom in the Lift Car In the lift cars, an effective two-way communication system is installed in accordance with EN 81-28:2018, allowing an emergency service to be always reached. Remote triggered emergency call button for emergency call simulation Continuous line monitoring and cyclic loudspeaker and microphone tests Indication and logging at the control station Lift Intercom with Intercom stations for car roof, lift pit and machine room Public address functions, e.g. for announcements or background music. The EN81-28:2018 as the defining standard only considers the risk of being trapped in the event of a lift malfunction and explicitly does not include other risks. However, passenger aggression or medical problems can also occur. Intercom for Lift Cars Call Answering In the event of a lift malfunction, the call goes directly to a rescue organization. However, if the lift is working properly, the call can be directed to an on-site security officer or even to a local Security Operations Center (SOC). The Commend Lift Intercom is the perfect solution to meet the requirements of EN81-28:2018. At the same time, it can be part of the general safety and communication concept. Advanced features such as the scream alarm give more security and comfort to people using a building. Lift Intercom Call Answering Operational & Maintenance Intercom In the lift shafts and machine rooms, special heavy duty Intercom stations adapted to the harsh and noisy environment ensure reliable and hands-free maintenance communication. Especially in places where radios or cell phones are simply inadequate. Operational and Maintenance Lift Intercom Find out more Contact us and see for yourself in a personal demonstration (optionally) our versatile solutions for Lift Intercom according to EN 81-28:2018 and beyond. Contact Emergency call solutions for lifts Ensuring lift safety is one of the main requirements for any building, whether public or private. Lift alarm systems are essential devices for responding promptly to emergency situations, demonstrating their full effectiveness when the situation becomes critical. Precisely because maximum reliability is required in these situations, Commend designs and manufactures advanced communication solutions that ensure reliable performance, audio quality and compliance with the most stringent regulations, including EN 81-28 and EN 81-70. Remote alarms and help points: safety and ease of use The lift intercom systems developed by Commend integrate advanced alarm remote control functions that allow operators to have centralised supervision. This is possible thanks to the IP or PSTN connectivity provided by the devices and control systems. This makes it possible to monitor the status of terminals in real time and receive automatic notifications in the event of a fault, in addition to the standard voice or video communication modes. Lift help points are designed to be intuitive to use and easily recognisable , with illuminated buttons, audible and visual feedback, and crystal-clear audio quality. Furthermore, the adoption of OpenDuplex® technology and active ambient noise cancellation ensure that communication with the control centre is maintained even in difficult conditions, such as in the event of panic among those present or high levels of background noise. The regulatory framework for emergency communication for lifts EN 81-70: Safe and independent access and use of lifts In addition to emergency communication, it is essential that lift communication systems meet the requirements for safe and independent access and use defined by EN 81-70 . Commend terminals are equipped with accessible solutions that, in accordance with the standard, allow people with visual or hearing impairments to receive confirmation of the call status and request assistance with ease. The interfaces are compatible with magnetic induction loop devices for hearing aids, and integrated pictograms provide clear visual signals when communication is activated and the door is opened. Why compliance with EN 81-28 is important The EN 81-28 standard sets out the requirements for lift remote alarms and emergency communication systems between passengers trapped in the lift car and an external rescue centre. Commend solutions are designed to fully comply with these standards by design and guarantee continuous, reliable two-way voice communication, even in the event of a power failure. The system performs periodic automatic checks on the correct functioning of the device, ensuring that the lift emergency terminal is fully operational at all times. Intercoms for lifts: clear and immediate communication Commend lift intercoms are made from resistant and durable materials, suitable for installation in harsh environments subject to vibrations, humidity or vandalism. They are available in flush-mounted or wall-mounted versions, with raised buttons and symbols that comply with accessibility regulations. Emergency calls are managed by certified Intercom Servers, which allow event logging, call origin identification and integration with other building management systems, such as video surveillance and access control. Remote alarm management: centralised and efficient management Remote lift alarm systems allow all emergency calls to be collected in a single operations centre , simplifying management, even for multiple buildings simultaneously, and reducing monitoring costs. Commend solutions enable data transmission via IP, remote verification of device operation, network status monitoring and automatic notifications in the event of a fault or scheduled maintenance. Thanks to the modular and scalable infrastructure , the lift remote alarm network can be integrated with other security systems, including third-party systems, such as voice evacuation systems, fire protection devices and audio/video distribution systems, ensuring a high level of automation and interoperability. Certified reliability, readiness in emergencies Commend lift alarm systems are developed according to the principle of Security by Design and tested to ensure reliability, durability and ease of installation. Centralised power supply with backup, continuous monitoring of microphone and loudspeaker, and periodic self-test functions help prevent service interruptions. The availability of intercom servers, both software and hardware, allows for the configuration of tailor-made solutions for every type of building: from single apartment buildings to large hospital, commercial, school or residential complexes. Integrated Solutions Commend Technology Whether it's lift telephones, help points, or cabin intercoms, Commend offers a comprehensive portfolio of solutions designed to meet the highest European and international standards for lift safety. Compliance with EN 81-28 and EN 81-70 standards, combined with a vision focused on integrated management and user protection, makes Commend solutions an ideal choice for those who want to ensure communications that are always active, reliable and accessible.

Intercom Systems Designed for People
Designed for People In architecture it's as in human relationships: First impressions count - possibly with long-term effects. At the entrance, for example – the building’s architectural ‘calling card’. Is it attractive? Does it have appeal? It is here, where building meets people, that Commend creates points of contact that attract both the acoustic and visual senses. Commend lets buildings speak for themselves Here’s an essential question that arises at the intersection of architecture and building communication: How, if at all, does the building ‘speak’ to me? With lifeless rows of doorbell buttons or a lively welcome with a personal touch? With a warm greeting or icy silence? Aesthetics or dull banality? Commend’s Intercom Touch Stations of the Concerto-Series not only make the decision easy, they also turn any door entrance into an audibly and visibly attractive ‘calling’ card for visitors. Your Concerto Wish is our command When it comes to the form and function of your Commend Concerto station, the choice is yours: custom GUI to suit your needs and wants, a custom-tailored array of functions, and options to address users personally – all open to your individual design choices, and put (literally) at your fingertips via convenient touch control. And soon with the added benefit of an interactive voice assistant. Commend’s Outdoor Intercom Stations are designed to withstand the roughest of weather conditions. Whether extreme cold or heat, driving rain or frost on the display – you can rely on a Concerto’s performance, whatever the weather. Where a sound performance is concerned, Concerto communication terminals are not limited to the exterior building architecture at the entrance. They also shine in indoor applications, providing instant connections between people and crucial security support in emergencies. Always in harmonious interplay with the ambient architecture. In everyday applications as well as in special operations, from doors to lifts and everywhere in between. Outdoor Touchscreen Stations Indoor Touchscreen Stations Wallmount Stations Screen design according to your wishes Use the intercom for a more personal addressing - of course, completely customisable. Different layouts Adapt the view to your building. Display multiple companies, departments and people. Enjoyable waiting time Instead of a boring ring tone, music and a pre-recorded voice message can be played for the visitor. Functional layout as required Whether at the door access or in the lift, for a large architectural complex or a single building: the intercom system adapts to you.

Possible Layouts and Options for Touchscreen Intercom Systems Layout Options Less is more: Commend product design by Wolfgang Wurm For twenty years now Commend devices have been bearing the design signature of the brilliant Austrian product architect Wolfgang Wurm ( Industrial Design Attersee ). He enjoys the highly demanding challenge of giving the durable, highly professional communication high-tech a timelessly functional design without fashionable frills. The goal is always to minimise, in every respect, whether in terms of size, production costs or ecological footprint. "Design is the progressive search for less." Wolfgang Wurm, product designer The implied affinities with building architecture are no coincidence either. Here, too, the goal is to bring together functionality and modern, modular technology – to form a well-balanced whole at the intersection between buildings and people. Wolfgang Wurm is also well-known throughout Austria as a recognised specialist for disassembling old farmhouses and rebuilding them at other locations. It’s his profound expert knowledge that helps the contractors to achieve that perfect, beautiful blend of traditional architecture with modern interior design. By now the sites of his construction projects have also become sought-after locations for various film productions. TRUSTED. COMMUNICATION. ALWAYS.
