Tunnel Communications
Roadside Safety and Efficiency
Roadside breakdowns and accidents in tunnels pose a great danger. Emergency call points may not always be behind soundproof doors, so the environment is exposed to high levels of noise, dust, and moisture. Commend's Tunnel system applications are providing instant response for emergency calls and public address. They are ideal for integrating voice, video, alarm monitoring, control functions, communication with drivers, lighting, ventilation, traffic lights, signals, and barriers.
Safety on the Move
Ensuring the safety of all travellers requires appropriate infrastructure and preventive measures. Powerful emergency stations like tunnel phones that can be customized to fit the environment, as well as solutions that allow emergency services to respond quickly are crucial in any incident that may occur.
Especially with a potentially high background noise in a tunnel, perfect speech intelligibility is a must.
Keeping an Eye on the Road
If an emergency strikes, a central control desk and easy integration of third-party systems make it possible for operators to monitor the situation and keep things under control. These situations require a control desk solution for different scenarios with the right response at the push of a button that support the operator and even provide the option to automate certain actions.
The System Philosophy
Public address solutions for tunnels allow operators respond to various scenarious occurring in the tunnel. A fully integrated control system, helps to insure road user safety by giving them loud and clear instructions or for example, guiding them away from dangerous situations. Multiple systems together can notify all road users in the tunnel via the PA system at the highest level of speech intelligibility and with the help of multiple interface possibilities.
Applications for Tunnels
Alerting
Emergency Call Stations
Extensive range of Intercom stations that are resistant against rough ambient conditions and could even be used with existing cabling of earlier stations. Also, custom tailored stations are available.
Coordinating
Unified Communications
Information can be provided to various subsystems at the same time via automated playback of voice messages, in-tunnel loudspeakers, UHF radio broadcasting systems, Intercom stations or radio-based communication systems.
Coordinating
Easy Control Desk Management
The highly user-friendly interface makes managing incidents easy through video and control functions, allowing for a continuous system-wide overview to provide instant response in case of an emergency.
Informing
Sound Beacons and PA Systems
To guide road users to the fastest escape corridors, for example in case of low visibility, sound beacons and PA systems offer an audible localization solution for tunnel safety.
