School Paging and Automatic Bell Systems

Upgrade your school’s paging system and bell system with Edwards’ Audio over IP. Using your existing LAN network, you can easily connect speakers to broadcast school bells, voice announcements, paging, music, and pre-recorded messages—all from any location.

Campus-Wide Communication & Emergency Alerts

Ensure clear, campus-wide communication with automated lockdown and evacuation alerts. Pre-recorded emergency announcements can be triggered instantly via:
Alarm activations
Push-buttons at reception
Motion sensors (PIR) or magnetic door switches

With Edwards’ IP-based PA system, your school intercom paging and bell system becomes fully integrated, reliable, and easy to manage.

Whether you're upgrading an old PA system or installing a new network-based sound system, Edwards' Audio over IP gives you full flexibility:
🎙 Can interface with VOIP phone systems
🔊 Can feature 1-way or 2-way communication (like an intercom system)
📡 Uses your existing network infrastructure—cuts down on extra cabling

Customisable School Bell System

Move beyond the traditional school bell sound! 

🎵 Music or MP3 sound effects instead of  a "bell"!
📢 Pre-recorded announcements 
🕰 Different schedules for different days (perfect for parent-teacher interviews, holiday programs, and special events)

Setting up your school PA system is simple! No need for much in the way of audio cables or 100V line speaker connections—we use your existing LAN, POE switches, and network endpoints to place speakers exactly where you need them.

Beyond Schools: Versatile Public Address System

These IP-based PA systems are also ideal for:
🏫 Schools & universities
🚆 Train & bus stations
