IP Horn Speaker with Strobe Light | AFLS-H-P High-Volume Audio
Unmistakable. Unmissable. Unambiguous IP Horn Speaker with Strobe Light Overview The AFLS-H-P is the world’s first IP-based horn speaker that combines high-volume audio broadcasting capabilities with a powerful, configurable LED strobe light in a single device. Equipped with these unique capabilities, it is designed to effectively amplify any message – from preventive warning and de-escalation announcements to alerts and everyday information broadcasts – by addressing the eyes as well as the ears. Highlights Technical Data Products Applications Attention in a fraction of a second Impossible to ignore The human brain is a masterful detector of change and is evolutionarily programmed to respond with lightning-fast reactions to sudden environmental stimuli (predator/prey). While acoustic warning signals and voice announcements play an essential part in security technology, our visual system is biologically wired to react much faster when stimulated by light signals. A powerful flashing light perfectly simulates the type of movement that ‘tricks’ our brain into focussing immediately and automatically on the light source. In emergency situations and security applications, every second (or even fraction of a second) counts. A well-balanced combination of light and sound ensures that your warning is not just heard but triggers an instant cognitive response in the recipient. Immediate attention Visual signals are processed even faster than purely auditory signals. Cuts through ambient noise In sound-polluted environments (e.g., on-road traffic or industrial facilities), audio-only announcements may be drowned out, while the strobe light instantly draws people’s attention to the speaker and the announcement. Faster response The combined audiovisual approach effectively reduces response times. Universal intelligibility Colour codes (e.g., red signalling danger), as well as light effects (e.g., flashing) are instantly recognisable across language barriers. As a result, the message is received and understood instinctively without further explanation, even by hearing impaired persons. Proactive remote addressing The combination of a live audio message with a visual warning light enables instant protective intervention, deterring or de-escalation via a remote point of control. This enables immediate on-site presence without the need to deploy security staff. Audio and Visual Signals Dual-sensory principle Technical Data Extra-high volume capacity: A high-efficiency amplifier powered by SmartAmp technology delivers a maximum of sound volume while keeping energy consumption at a minimum. Dynamic LED strobe light: The light source can be configured individually to suit different scenarios, with options including various colours and flashing patterns. IP66 and IK10 rated, built to withstand harsh ambient conditions System integration: Packed with on-board features from SIP to API and I/Os, including ONVIF support, the speakers integrate smoothly and easily into VMS, PSIM or other security management platforms. AI-assisted two-way communication: The integrated microphone (which can also be disabled) leverages AI-based noise and echo suppression technologies to ensure crystal-clear audio communication. Cyber Security ‘By Design’: Protection against cyber attacks is essential, particularly in exposed outdoor areas. Thanks to Active Device Management ( Symphony Service ), your speakers receive automatic updates and remain optimally protected against cyber threats at all times. Genuine single-wire solution: While conventional systems often require separate wiring for audio lines and strobe lights, the Commend IP speaker offers an all-in-one Ethernet cable connection (standard Power over Ethernet / PoE). Intelligent Volume Control (IVC): The system continuously measures ambient noise levels and adjusts the volume setting automatically for optimum clarity and intelligibility. Remote System Health Monitoring: Using built-in speaker-to-microphone monitoring and end-to-end connection testing, the system ensures continuous functionality without the need for manual inspections. Audio Monitoring: The speaker comes with the ability to continuously monitor the acoustic environment, which allows it to automatically trigger alerts in case a pre-defined noise level is detected. The noise level readings can be relayed to a central system at definable intervals – e.g., to populate the noise map of a city or industrial facility with current values. Products From reactive observation to proactive intervention Applications Surveillance cameras are limited to the observation of events, without the ability to intervene. The Commend Symphony IP Horn Speaker lets you intervene directly, helping you to protect lives and assets. Transform your security system into a proactive tool for remote-controlled action: Event-specific trigger mechanism: Cameras and sensors detect an incident and trigger an automatic announcement, accompanied by an attention-compelling light signal. Direct-address function: Staff at a central control desk can use their desktop microphone to make live announcements, accompanied by appropriate light signals to attract attention and support de-escalation. Protection of perimeters & critical infrastructures Safeguard critical infrastructures, data centres and large company premises with a combined visual and acoustic barrier that deters intruders before they can reach or breach the fence line or causes one to flee the scene. Smart Cities & Remote Intervention Improve video surveillance through efficient remote control, using audio announcements and light signalling to de-escalate critical situations in inner-city environments. Industrial facilities & large-scale company premises Reliable alarm support for industrial applications, with additional light signals in the form of flash bursts to prevent audio messages from being overheard. Safe evacuation guidance A clearly visible light signal directs evacuees in quick and easily understandable fashion to emergency assembly points. At the same time, the built-in two-way communication line helps to provide reassurance and ensure a well-coordinated evacuation process. Protection of open spaces and sensitive areas Leverage the interplay of light and automatic audio playback to kindly but firmly warn off people, e.g. if they are not allowed on the premises outside business hours or without proper authorisation. Connection and Control Options Ethernet, USB port, inputs and outputs, line-in Built-in microphone for AI-powered two-way communication Frequently asked questions about the IP horn loudspeaker with strobe light What makes the Commend Symphony IP Horn Speaker AFLS-H-P stand out? What makes the Commend Symphony IP Horn Speaker AFLS-H-P stand out? In addition to providing high volume and excellent speech intelligibility, the device features a unique built-in LED strobe light that engages the visual sense to attract people’s attention to announcements being broadcast. Which colours are supported by the strobe light? Which colours are supported by the strobe light? Depending on the application scenario and the desired effect (e.g., warning, deterring or de-escalating), various lighting modes such as flashing, flashing speed or steady light can be configured, and the colours red, green, blue, white, orange and pink are supported. Why is direct confrontation the most effective way to ward off intruders? Why is direct confrontation the most effective way to ward off intruders? Studies and statistical evaluations conducted by security service providers have shown that the effectiveness of IP Speakers rests on three key functions: Removing anonymity: Perpetrators will feel safe as long as they believe themselves to be undetected. Addressing an intruder directly, as in “The person in the red jacket, please leave the premises immediately!” lets them know that they have been detected and are being monitored. Raising an intruder’s risk of detection: According to the “Rational Choice Approach” in criminology, perpetrators will give up once their risk (of being detected) exceeds their envisioned benefit. Shock effect: Sudden acoustic signals or voice sound will trigger an instinctive escape reflex. An additional visual signal can amplify this effect significantly. Is the speaker also suitable for extremely noisy environments? Is the speaker also suitable for extremely noisy environments? Yes, the speaker is built specifically for use in environments that are subject to high and changeable levels of noise pollution. Its built-in Intelligent Volume Control (IVC) function allows it to automatically adjust the volume setting to the ambient noise level. Built-in Smart Amp technology enables extra high volume amplification without the need for any additional power source. Can the device withstand harsh environmental conditions? Can the device withstand harsh environmental conditions? Absolutely. The IP Horn Speaker features a highly robust and durable design that ensures reliable operation even under harsh conditions. It also offers high-level protection against vandalism (IK 10) and is protected against dirt and powerful water jets in accordance with IP66. A waterproof and breathable seal prevents condensation from forming inside the housing when there are significant temperature differences. How is two-way communication possible with a horn speaker? How is two-way communication possible with a horn speaker? The speaker leverages OpenDuplex ® technology in combination with AI-based noise and echo suppression ( Cleans Voice from Noise ). This allows it to efficiently suppress background noise and highlight the voice sound being transmitted. How does the IP Horn Speaker have to be connected and powered? How does the IP Horn Speaker have to be connected and powered? Since the system eliminates the need for complex wiring, it can be integrated into a network using a standard Power over Ethernet (PoE IEEE 802.3af/at) connection via the RJ45 port . This connection automatically provides the device with the required operating power, eliminating the need for PoE+ or any additional power supply. Can the speaker be integrated into existing security systems? Can the speaker be integrated into existing security systems? Thanks to its SIP, API and I/O capabilities and ONVIF support , the speaker integrates smoothly and easily into VMS, PSIM or other security management platforms. Is the system protected against cyber attacks? Is the system protected against cyber attacks? Cyber security is a top priority in line with Commend’s product policy of “Privacy and Security by Design”. Commend International is ISO 27001 certified and maintains an IEC 62443-4-1 compliant product development environment. The speaker supports encrypted and authenticated communication protocols, such as SIP over TLS and IEEE 802.1x, along with signed firmware, and many other security-focussed features. Active Device Management ( Symphony Service ) ensures that your devices are updated fully automatically, providing them with the best possible protection against digital threats at all times.

Trust in the evergreen of sustainable communication: solutions by Commend that are built to last – safe and secure – for many (product) generations to come! Analogue Era The Journey of an EE 511 The iconic EE 511 analogue intercom station in a colour combination that reflects the spirit of the times: chocolate and vanilla. Evergreen Technology explained with this Intercom station from the 80s. Future Ready? Digital Era Connected with the World The GE 700 Intercom server marked the beginning of the digital age. In addition to digital Intercom stations, it was possible for the first time in the world to network Intercom servers and locations with each other – first digitally and then via IP. The EE 511 could continue to be used and connected directly. Ready for the future? IP Era Video Intercom The next big step was video calls via Intercom with the introduction of the GE 800, the first IP-Intercom server, and the intercom station series WS. Beside the digital stations, the analogue EE 511 could still be connected directly to the server and continue to be used. Ready for the future? Virtualisation Era IP only? Commend presented VirtuoSIS, the world's first Software Intercom Server for virtualised IT environments. IP converters were developed for digital and analogue Intercom stations so that these could continue to be used with the pure IP infrastructure. The EE 511 was still on board. Ready for the future? Cloud Era Calls to Smartphones Once again, Commend was the first company to launch Symphony Cloud, the world's first intercom cloud platform with "Privacy and Security by Design". Software and hardware servers with VirtuoSIS can be connected to the cloud via the Symphony Bridge. This means that the EE 511 from the 80s could talk to a smartphone of the latest generation. This is Evergreen Technology by Commend – quite unique, we think. The Journey of an EE 511 Connected with the World Video Intercom IP only? Calls to Smartphones

Конфиденциальность и безопасность по дизайну
Больше, чем просто крылатая фраза Защита и безопасность персональных данных Cyber Security Как работает ‘Защита и безопасность персональных данных’? Основной принцип прост: обеспечение максимально возможной защиты как передаваемых данных (например, аудио / видеопотоков), так и «стационарных» данных (например, сохраненных пользовательских или системных данных) от несанкционированного доступа, чтобы гарантировать доступность продуктов и услуг. . Методы, используемые для достижения этого диапазона, от криптографии последнего поколения для защиты стандартных интернет-протоколов и комплексной стратегии глубокой защиты. Продукты Commend всегда проектируются, разрабатываются и включаются в решения клиентов в соответствии с этими критериями безопасности. Системные функции полностью интегрируются со встроенными компонентами безопасности. Это позволяет решениям Commend выделяться на фоне других систем, в которых дополнительные компоненты безопасности применяются задним числом. Партнерство и стандарты передовой практики Приверженность компании Commend кибербезопасности подтверждается стратегическим партнерством с SBA Research , в рамках которого мы придерживаемся принципа "Privacy and Security by Design" для наших облачных продуктов "Symphony". Сотрудничая с венским аналитическим центром IT Research, мы завершили жизненно важный этап проекта, который улучшает наш процесс разработки Dev-Sec-Ops, обеспечивая проактивную безопасность. Ключевым аспектом этой новой стратегии является подход "сдвиг влево". Он выдвигает тестирование безопасности вперед в процессе разработки, интегрируя его в самые ранние этапы проектирования и кодирования продукта. Вместо того чтобы ждать, пока продукт будет полностью разработан, инженеры Commend, опираясь на данные SBA Research, систематически анализируют и тестируют уязвимости безопасности с самого начала. Это позволяет обнаружить и устранить потенциальные риски гораздо раньше, что более эффективно и менее затратно, чем их устранение на более поздних этапах. Это значительный сдвиг по сравнению с традиционной практикой разработки, когда проверка безопасности проводилась на более поздних этапах или даже только после завершения основной сборки. Благодаря использованию передовых исследовательских методик, таких как математическое моделирование и тестирование безопасности от исследовательской группы MATRIS, инженеры Commend могут оценить аспекты безопасности на этапе проектирования, еще до начала кодирования. Это гарантирует, что каждая строчка кода вносит свой вклад в общую безопасность продукта. Результаты оказались впечатляющими: платформа Symphony продемонстрировала высокую устойчивость к интенсивным тестам на проникновение, что свидетельствует о надежности принципа "конфиденциальность и безопасность по проекту". Стратегия Commend "сдвиг влево", подкрепленная передовыми исследованиями и тщательной системой контроля качества, означает существенный скачок к достижению максимально возможного уровня кибербезопасности для наших клиентов. Систематическая интеграция вопросов безопасности на каждом этапе разработки продукта вновь устанавливает высокий стандарт для отрасли и обеспечивает нашим клиентам уверенность в высокой безопасности ИТ-инфраструктуры. Independently Assessed Cyber Security Партнерство и стандарты передовой практики Чтобы идти в ногу с быстрыми техническими разработками в отношении ‘ Безопасность персональных данных ’, Commend поддерживает партнерские отношения в области исследований и разработок со сторонними производителями, экспертами по безопасности и университетами, используя свое членство в организациях, занимающихся вопросами безопасности, таких как Центр интернет безопасноти (CIS) . Cyber-secure on multiple levels В условиях роста киберпреступности укрепление системы и защита локальных решений Commend и облачных сервисов Commend Symphony от нарушений безопасности находятся на переднем крае нашего процесса разработки продуктов. При окончательной установке на объекте заказчика наш подход “Защита и безопасность персональных данных” распространяется на сочетание мер в четырех основных уровнях: Физическая безопасность - обеспечивает физическую защиту чувствительных к безопасности компонентов, таких как сетевые дверные терминалы и тому подобное. Меры, применяемые для этой цели, включают в себя защищенные IP-разъемы Commend , которые отключают сетевое соединение в случае взлома устройства, чтобы отразить попытки взлома. Сетевая безопасность - обеспечивает безопасные сетевые подключения локальных компонентов, а также веб-служб и облачных служб Symphony. Доступ к сетевым инфраструктурам с контролем безопасности идет рука об руку с мерами безопасности данных (такими как двухточечное шифрование) в соответствии с проверенными нормами и стандартами. Именно по этой причине облачная платформа Commend Symphony с самого начала была разработана как “безопасная по дизайну” в соответствии с целостным подходом Commend к конфиденциальности и безопасности по дизайну (PSBD). В соответствии с этим обязательством Commend также внедрил систему управления информационной безопасностью (ISMS), соответствующую ISO / IEC 27001: 2022, чтобы обеспечить безопасность всех корпоративных данных, а также информации о клиентах и поставщиках. Отказоустойчивость - различные меры, от автоматических обновлений до облачных стратегий аварийного переключения, используются для обеспечения бесперебойной доступности систем и услуг Commend даже в случае сбоя сетевого подключения. В результате многоуровневая кибербезопасность позволяет пользователям наслаждаться производительностью услуг Commend на самом высоком уровне.
