“Our product portfolio continues to evolve, providing feature-rich solutions that are scalable, versatile, cost effective and highly reliable to accommodate the latest devices to best protect critical infrastructure,” said Alan Forman, President, Altronix Corporation. 

Altronix’s new Commbatt1 battery back-up unit combined with the ANC1BBU annunciator provides the required critical power back-up for emergency responder communication systems. These UL 2524 listed units play a crucial role in supporting ARCS and ERCES system components, ensuring that first responders always remain in contact during emergency situations. Commbatt1 provides power for either 12VDC or 24VDC systems while monitoring a wide range of internal supervisory conditions. The unit’s housing accommodates up to two (2) 55AH batteries with the capacity to add additional back-up externally up to 110AH. The ANC1BBU annunciator monitors both the system BDA (bi-directional amplifier) and Commbatt1 status, providing local and/or remote trouble reporting, and communicates with the fire alarm control panel. Multiple ANC1BBU annunciators can be connected to a single Commbatt1 battery back-up unit.

The newly enhanced Linq network power management technology enables advanced remote capabilities to control devices, monitor and report system power diagnostics from a single-pane platform, significantly increasing system reliability and ROI, enhancing virtually any security installation. Linq technology is embedded in many Altronix products, including modules for upgrading existing systems.

In addition, Altronix continues to expand its Trove access and power integration solutions to include more brands from the leading access solution providers. Pre-wired kits with finger duct and versatile wire management options are designed to accommodate virtually any application. Altronix also offers larger system capacity utilising the company's unique backplane bracket system to accommodate more doors in the same footprint. Trove is available in wall and rackmount configurations as well as outdoor models, along with a wide range of accessories including complementary matching Trove wire trough and battery enclosures with specific knockouts that align with Trove enclosers to greatly reduce installation time.

Also new from Altronix and on display at the show were the Pace Series long range single pair media adapters, which enable communication between T1L 802.3cg compliant devices such as temperature sensors, industrial controllers, etc. within the network at distances up to 1000m+ (3280’+). Pace upgrades existing 2-wire deployed infrastructure control schemes, such as LON protocol to Ethernet networked devices adhering to the new SPE (Single Pair Ethernet) T1L standard.

Finally the Altronix Netway Spectrum Series is now available with even more power to support the latest high-power cameras, illuminators, wireless access points and other devices. New models leverage Altronix’s new PoE360 power supply/charger which operates at 115VDC or 230VAC providing 56VDC at 360W.
