» SYSTEM LAYOUT: MULTI-UNIT
For multi-unit buildings, such as apartment buildings, campuses, and office buildings, the layout is virtually
identical to that of a single-unit building. The only difference is that this application uses a 7.0" touchscreen
directory panel which is capable of listing a virtually unlimited number of apartments and residents. With just
a few presses on the touchscreen, AlphaTouch™ can simulataneously dial multiple phone numbers and mobile
apps (with video) for all of the apartments and residents. The first one to answer the call gets it and the call
notifications are cancelled everywhere else. Below is a typical system layout for this scenario. You will notice that
the entire system is comprised of a 7.0" tocuhscreen Door Camera Panel which is placed at the door and is wired
with a standard networking cable to an Internet-Connected PoE Network. This provides the Entrance Call Panel
with power as well a communication path to the AlphaTouch™ cloud. Once that has been established, the Door
Camera Panel can place telephone and app calls to your existing smart mobile devices and telephones.
Again, there are also many applications that require hard-wired monitors throughout the building(s). Luckily,
this is also easy enough. Our monitors simply connect to the same Internet-Connect PoE hardware as the Door
Camera Panel. Below is an illustration showing this. Alternatively, they can be connected to entirely separate
Internet-Connected PoE Networks.
