ADT Emergency Communications System Can Bring Advanced Security Warning To Spectaors at 2006 AirVenture OSHKOSH

ADT Mass Notification Meets Presidential Homeland Security Directive For Emergency Public Address Systems
Boca Raton, Fla. - July. 25, 2006 - Mass Notification, an emergency voice communications system from ADT Security Services, has been chosen to enhance the safety and security of more than 700,000 people expected to attend the Experimental Aircraft Association's (EAA) AirVenture Oshkosh 2006, one of sport aviation's top gatherings.
ADT's Mass Notification system, which utilizes specialized speaker technology, can be clearly heard up to one-quarter mile away and provides the ability to reach thousands of people in seconds.
"Communicating with 100,000 people or more at once, especially in an emergency situation, is a major challenge," said John Faeh, AirVenture security manager. "ADT's Mass Notification system will be a major asset for sharing information should such a situation arise during the event."
ADT is providing two portable Mass Notification units for use during the week-long EAA event in Oshkosh on July 24-30. With "intelligible voice" technology, Mass Notification can provide real-time and recorded information as well as emergency notifications to the thousands of aviation enthusiasts gathered at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh.
"Even more important, Mass Notification can help supply essential information to the crowd on how to respond in the event of any emergency or hazardous situations that might occur," said Mark Nelson, manager of national strategic accounts for ADT's Federal Systems Division. "In an emergency, clear and immediate information can help reduce the risk of death, injury and property damage."
As opposed to a siren or horn tone alarm, Mass Notification uses "intelligible voice" to deliver information in a precise, clearly understandable voice before, during and after an emergency.
The ADT Mass Notification units being used at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2006 also include video surveillance cameras mounted on top of the voice communication tower. The cameras can pan 360 degrees, enabling security officials to remotely view the airport area and better direct people during an emergency. Video will be sent via a wireless network to the airshow's security command center for monitoring.
Evacuation procedures, current disaster conditions, food and shelter locations and directions for large crowds during emergency situations are just some of the other potential uses for the Mass Notification System.
The system is already in use at various U.S. military installations throughout the world and is now available commercially to businesses, public safety agencies and other organizations.
