Emergency Alerting

The Emergency Alerting System (EAS) is used by emergency services authorities and government to issue warnings to the public about emergencies such as cyclone, flood, epidemic, law enforecement, terrorism, tsunami and wildfire.

Alerts are issued by either reverse number lookup or opt-in methods and delivered by telephone, email, SMS, fax, and wireless simultaneously. Using multiple delivery methods provides the best method of alerting people regardless of where they are and what they are doing at the time.

Built-in intelligence monitors telecom networks to determine the best path and predictive network throughput. The system adjusts for carrier outages and congestion during extreme emergency conditions.

EAS is available as a system installed into your environment or hosted in our infrastrucure, or a combination that load shares across multiple site installations including inter-country meshed deployments.

Examples of our deployments:

Whole of Government

Switching millions of calls each year since 2004.

After 9 deaths in a major fire this region spanning three local councils took control of alerting the public. read more
