WP Davidson High School, one of the largest public schools in Mobile County, Alabama, had a problem. Built in the 1960s, the school needed a modern solution to unify its disparate systems and serve as a model for the rest of the district. Their solution? InformaCast! By using InformaCast as the core of their mass notification system, the school unified disparate technologies, creating a single, reliable alerting system. Watch below to hear from the school staff on how we’ve helped better protect their students and faculty and enhance its safety and communication capabilities.

"It's not a matter of if, but WHEN." That phrase always makes us think of emergencies. But what about communication for every day? The real value is in a platform that is powerful enough for a crisis, yet simple enough that it becomes essential for daily operations. W.P. Davidson High School is a great example of this. They use Singlewire to make mass communication easy for everything from weather alerts to regular bell schedules. From a partner perspective, that's the conversation to have. Moving from "emergency-only" to "everyday essential" is how you deliver incredible value. Is the conversation with your clients about a 'just-in-case' tool or a 'daily-use' platform? #MassNotification #EmergencyAlerts #SaaS #ChannelSales

Think Synology is just for NAS? Think again! They also make cameras - and here's how to monitor both for complete surveillance infrastructure visibility. Key insights: ✅ Monitor both NAS accessibility AND Surveillance Station for 24/7 uptime ✅ Set automatic alerts when disk space drops ✅ Monitor specific ports to ensure camera streaming services stay active 👇 Read the complete guide: https://lnkd.in/e3Mh2Ndr

The new UNVR Instant addresses something I see regularly - clients who want reliable security coverage but don't need the complexity of larger UniFi deployments. Integrated 6-port PoE switch with the NVR in one compact unit. Can work standalone with any internet connection or integrate with existing UniFi infrastructure. Good fit for homes and small businesses with straightforward 4-6 camera requirements. I put together some thoughts on the specs and applications: https://lnkd.in/db9uV-Pd

This has been a big topic for many of our customers recently. False alarms are costly, disruptive, and overwhelming. Solink Alarms transform your existing security cameras into a smart alarm system with real-time video verification, eliminating the need for extra sensors or traditional alarm hardware. It's a faster, smarter way to catch real threats and cut false alarms—without the cost or complexity of a second system. https://lnkd.in/ggQDWQsY

129 buildings. One plan. At UC Irvine, Triad surveyed every facility, aligning electronic security across campus and medical center. 💠 Standardized access control 💠 Integrated video surveillance 💠 License plate recognition for parking security Big campuses need one ecosystem, not fragmented systems. #SecurityConsulting #AccessControl #VideoSurveillance #SchoolSafety

What is Mixed Gain Technology? On the fireground, conditions change fast. Mixed Gain Technology lets every pixel independently switch between high and low sensitivity — meaning you get earlier colorization without lag and clear detail in both hot and cooler areas of the scene. 🔥 This helps firefighters locate victims more quickly, spot hidden fire, and maintain awareness without waiting for the camera to adjust.

Improving School Safety with Advanced Communication Systems School safety depends on reliable communication. Motorola two-way radios and wireless systems provide schools with clear, secure, and instant connections between staff, security teams, and first responders. With features like GPS tracking, emergency alerts, and noise-canceling audio, MotoTRBO™ radios ensure quick responses in any situation. Paired with Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS), schools eliminate dead zones and guarantee communication works everywhere on campus.
