American Signal Corporation (ASC), the world leader in Engineered Solutions for Mass Notifications, announces the release of the CompuLert™ NEXGen Mass Notification Platform. CompuLert™ NEXGen is the latest full hardware and software platform release of the American Signal Corporations’ CompuLert™ system that has over 25 years in service.
The CompuLert™ NEXGen system provides industry leading features such as automated activation of mass notification devices based on Common Alerting Protocol feeds, dynamic geo-referenced mapping, polygon selection and dynamic device grouping in a high availability and fault tolerant solution. NEXGen can accept automatic feeds from NOAA & National Weather Service to automatically or manually activate warning devices such as sirens or high power speaker arrays. This feature dramatically reduces the amount of time required to provide lifesaving information to the target audience.
The CompuLert™ NEXGen system is the most flexible and configurable solution a direct result of the system architecture. As a multitier application, each layer of the application has been designed to support diverse customer environments. The NEXGen server application is fully supported on Linux, Windows, Mac, and UNIX operating systems. The NEXGen data layer supports numerous data servers such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, Microsoft SQL, Oracle and more. CompuLert™ NEXGen has been designed from the ground up to support the latest communications methodologies and protocols to support the highly mobile world.
The CompuLert™ NEXGen system is capable of managing numerous communications methodologies such as Ethernet, SMS/GPRS, Satellite, APCO P.25, Digital Radio, Analog Radio, and more. CompuLert™ NEXGen has the built in intelligence to provide the highest communications reliability while also managing cost. All communications channels could be use simultaneously for high reliability, but NEXGen is also smart enough to manage individual channel failover and most importantly can maintain link cost data to use more economical channels for non-mission critical traffic. Completely tunable - communications channel management is an industry leading feature.
“CompuLert™ NEXGen is truly the mass notification industry’s next generation platform providing industry leading features and a level of performance and fault tolerance never available before. When used to manage ASC’s wide array of available sirens and high powered speaker arrays, with industry leading speech intelligibility, our clients benefit from the proven reliability of our products with the leading edge technology required to produce integrated mass notification system solutions.”, stated Richard D.
