Figure 1 illustrates how a WiLAS system can be deployed in a typical multi-building campus site, and how
activation signals are propagated through the network via multiple pathways. This ability to automatically
create multiple pathways makes WiLAS highly resilient, providing redundant signal pathways in the event of
radio interference, or hardware failures resulting from faults, vandalism or malicious attacks.

To enhance network robustness, WiLAS uses a security coded radio signal. Every wireless remote control,
Control Station and optional warning Beacon Station is keyed to a site-specific network to ensure network
integrity. Every Control Station is additionally supplied with dual siren horns, not only to deliver greater audio
output, but to provide redundancy. Back-up batteries on the Control Stations, and optional solar charging
systems ensure maximum network up time by ensuring the system will work even in a total power blackout.
