INTRODUCING RFCS

Integrated alert and conferencing system for emergency situations.

XOP Networks’ Ringdown Firebar Conference Server, a Crash Phone System, scales from 8 ports to 96 ports. It provides direct termination for analog (Red) phones and IP-based SIP phones. These crash phone systems are typically deployed in campus locations that are prone to emergency situations, e.g., airports, air force bases, chemical plants, oil and gas installations, etc. A person close to the emergency can simply lift the handset on any (or designated) RFCS-connected phone and trigger a dial-out to the other phones. As first responders answer these calls, they are automatically placed into a conference with the initiator. A unique aspect of XOP Networks’ RFCS is its ability to also interface with on-site PBX or IP PBX. This allows people outside the immediate emergency area to be reached via the PSTN. The XOP Networks RFCS systems can be deployed in high-availability (99.999%) configuration.

Key Features RFCS

Unified Communication System for Emergency Management

Seamless Integration

RFCS allows seamless integration, connects effortlessly with your existing communication infrastructure, bringing together multiple stakeholders, agencies and departments under one system. It allows hybrid set-up where analog and digital devices can be part of the same system.

 

Scalable and Flexible

It is scalable from 8 to 96 ports, allowing that many analog / digtal devices to be connected and configured in the system. it is suitable for small set-ups as well as large organizations / operations and may be deployed on a physical server or virtual cloud server. It supports mutiple types of communication channels and different types of devices.

Highly Available and Reliable

The solution is built around Industrial Grade Server with hot swappable hard drives and is suitable for outside plant deployment
It is also available in dual server, redundant and hot stand-by configuration that results in near zero downtime

Multiple Trigger Points

It allows multiple phones and push buttons to be designated as trigger points.
Each trigger can have its own set of defined end-points that get activated when the trigger is initiated. This helps in defining different set response teams for different type of emergencies if the trigger points are appropriately set-up

 

Multiple Types of Devices

Allows multiple types of devices to be connected as end-points. These include analog and digital phones, strobe lights, speakers, PA systems, garage door opening devices, digital display unis (signages).

Multi-Channel Communication

It can directly connectivity to Analog (RED emergency) Phones and supports Long Loop lengths (30,000 feet). It supports PSTN connectivty (T1 /E1/CAS interface) for legacy networks and ethernet/ Fiber-optics based LAN connectivity for SIP/VoIP interface. It can be interfaced with Radio Networks. It also supports connectivity to legacy and cloud PBXs

Secure & Reliable Communication

Built for critical environments, RFCS ensures encrypted, tamper-proof communication across all channels. It maintains data integrity and prepares your systems for a secure, digital-first future where every transmission counts.

Ease of Administration

The system has a user friendly web-based administrator portal for configuring trigger points, conferences, alerts, and scheduling periodic testing of the CrashNet system.
It allows realtime monitoring of conferences and has an automated recording feature that allows easy review of past events

Ease of Migration

It supports a phased approach to migration from legacy systems to modern, digital communication system, allowing incremental changes that ensures almost zero down-time during the transition.
It is a suitable replacement for Tellabs 291/292 or other similar Firebar equipment.
