Description
Extend InformaCast emergency mass notification to outdoor and covered exterior locations with the VIP-997-BL-IC, a blue PoE IP strobe rated for interior and exterior installation.
The Telecom Spot Expert Review
InformaCast systems are common in K-12 schools, universities, and large campuses where life-safety alerts need to reach every corner — including outdoor spaces. The VIP-997-BL-IC brings that same InformaCast triggering capability to weather-exposed locations where the indoor-only VIP-998-BL-IC cannot be mounted. Blue is commonly used in campus environments for police/emergency signaling and as a distinct visual cue from fire alarm red.
