Hello Everyone,
We have a dept. that is moving into a outer building that currently has our phones but their is no intercom/pa system and no panic buttons which this dept. currently has. Can anyone recommend a PA/Intercom system to remotely tie into our pbx and panic button that works with a Nortel CS1000. The reason we are looking for something to tie in is the conduit between the buildings are full and would require us to dig up a parking lot etc. to install additional conduit. Basically trying to find something to work with what we have. This building has 300 pair pulled into from our main building. We also have network connectivity and VOIP so we can entertain something that way as well. I appreciate any suggestions, been Googling things all day and have not found anything we are really happy with.

Thanks in advance,
Jim
 
Hell Ghtrout,
I did some more research and found that our current hardware company for paging had equipment to convert it and run it over our data network to that building where we could then convert it back and feed it into the speakers. They also have something that will allow us to do the panic buttons. In case you or anyone else is interested the company that we use for the hardware is Valcom.

Thanks again,
Jim
