Education
Digital Acoustics delivers powerful, affordable IP-based audio solutions designed specifically for the needs of today’s K–12 schools and universities. Our technology helps institutions modernize public address systems, enable two-way communications with classrooms, support safety mandates like Alyssa’s Law, and enhance emergency readiness—all by leveraging their existing viable components.
An Integrated IP-Based Network Approach to PA & Intercom for Education
K–12 school districts often face tight budgets, legacy infrastructure, and new safety mandates. Digital Acoustics offers scalable systems that make it easy to enhance day-to-day communications while preparing for emergencies, including two-way classroom communication, emergency paging, and integration with mass notification platforms.
From lecture hall podiums to campus-wide alert systems, Digital Acoustics is trusted by colleges and universities such as Notre Dame, UNC, and the University of Chicago to provide flexible, reliable solutions that integrate with existing infrastructure, support multiple zones, and enable quick response during emergencies.
Digital Acoustics supports both integration partners and school administrators with solutions built for education environments. From summer retrofit projects to multi-campus communication upgrades, our team is ready to help deploy a new system or transform existing infrastructure into a smarter, more secure system.
Solutions
Mass Notification
Emergency preparedness is a growing concern for schools of all sizes. Digital Acoustics offers complete solutions to support mass notification and integrates seamlessly with existing platforms like InformaCast and Bell Commander. Schools can automate bell schedules, send live or scheduled announcements, and broadcast alerts campus-wide—all from a single, centralized system, on campus or remotely.
Point to Point Communications
Enable direct, two-way communication between classrooms and administrative or security personnel. Whether you need a full IP intercom system or want to add functionality to existing devices, DA’s solutions are easy to deploy and allow for real-time interaction, with or without the need for a costly VoIP (SIP) phone system.
Integrations
Digital Acoustics systems are designed for interoperability. Our IP devices support SIP-based VoIP phone systems for making announcements, integrate with industry-leading software like InformaCast, and connect to AV, access control, and VMS surveillance platforms. With TalkMaster™ FOCUS software, users can easily manage announcements, paging zones, and events from one intuitive interface.
Analog to Digital
Why digitize?
IP-based network audio systems offer significant advantages: faster communication, greater control, easier zoning, and remote configurability. They also reduce the maintenance burden of aging analog hardware. Moving to IP helps future-proof your investment while enabling advanced features such as automated alerts, emergency alert system integration, remote or local monitoring and maintenance of audio devices on the network, and easy communication to the areas you need to reach.
Affordable and Scalable
Upgrading doesn’t mean starting from scratch. DA’s retrofit-friendly IP endpoints allow schools to extend the life of existing speakers and paging systems by converting them to IP-based digital. With no annual license fees, straightforward deployment, and long-lasting hardware, schools can build out their systems gradually as budgets and priorities allow.
