Altronix’s new COMMBATT1 Battery Back-up Unit combined with the ANC1BBU Annunciator provides the required critical power back-up for emergency responder communication systems. These UL 2524 listed units play a crucial role in supporting ARCS and ERCES system components, ensuring that first responders always remain in contact during emergency situations. COMBATT1 provides power for either 12VDC or 24VDC systems while monitoring a wide range of internal supervisory conditions. The unit’s housing accommodates up to two (2) 55AH batteries with the capacity to add additional back-up externally up to 110AH. The ANC1BBU Annunciator monitors both the system BDA (Bi-Directional Amplifier) and COMMBATT1 status, providing local and/or remote trouble reporting, and communicates with the fire alarm control panel. Multiple ANC1BBU Annunciators can be connected to a single COMBATT1 Battery Back-up Unit.

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
