DESCRIPTION
The project seeks a vendor to provide a comprehensive public address system, distributing audio signals from equipment such as LAN controllers, communication links, and necessary cabling, with a minimum one-hour battery backup and power line surge protection. The solution must offer a balanced and highly intelligible distributed sound, free from noise and distortion, ensuring even coverage throughout the designated area within a tolerance of plus or minus 3 dB for the 1/1 octave band centered at 4000 Hz.
The system is required to deliver a 75 dB average program level with an additional 10 dB peaking margin of sound pressure in all areas. It must be a standalone, wired, IP address networked system that is RMF Accredited. Key functionalities include support for zone paging, background music, all-call, priority paging, pre-automated outputs, messaging processors, software, input modules, controllers, and interface modules. Paging priorities will be determined during design and implementation according to clinical input.
The public address system must interface seamlessly with all fire safety system components as well as the new nurse call system. 24/7/365 phone support is required. Installation must be carefully phased, scheduled during both standard and after-hours shifts, to ensure minimal impact on ongoing business operations, minimize patient risk, and prevent disruption to facility functions.
