An Emergency Voice Communication System (EVCS) is a fixed, secure, bi‑directional, full‑duplex voice communication system designed to support life safety operations within a building.
The system can provide Disabled Refuge communication and, where required, also function as a Fire Telephone System, enabling reliable voice communication during emergency situations.
The Honeywell EVCS is available as a 4‑zone or 8‑zone standalone system, as well as a fully networked solution. While suitable for small to medium installations, it is particularly well‑suited to large multi‑storey buildings and campus environments due to its advanced network capability and scalability.
