NIKOS is not a conventional PA system, but a radio-based public address, alarm and control system for large events, construction sites and crisis situations, which you can rent by the day through certified partners and either integrate into your PA or use on its own.
ChallengeAt Sachsen-Anhalt-Tag 2028 in Aschersleben, stages, stands and visitor areas will be spread across several parts of the city. To ensure visitor safety, warnings, evacuation announcements and instructions must reach the right areas clearly and simultaneously, even when visitor numbers are high. Attendance will vary significantly over the several days of the event, meaning that bottlenecks, waiting areas and heavily frequented routes will need to be reassessed continuously. In addition, the event will involve a temporary large-scale setup without continuous permanent infrastructure, where power outages or overloaded communication networks must not impair crisis communication.
Announcements, system monitoring, crowd management and device control come together with 
in a single platform independent of the public network. ![NIKOS [dispatcher]²](https://nikos.info/assets/logos/nikos/SVG/NIKOS dispatcher.svg)
controls the announcement units as required, targeting individual announcement locations, specific areas or the entire site. ![NIKOS [audio]²](https://nikos.info/assets/logos/nikos/SVG/NIKOS audio.svg)
receives voice transmissions locally by radio and outputs them as an analogue audio signal. ![NIKOS [horn]²](https://nikos.info/assets/logos/nikos/SVG/NIKOS horn.svg)
extends the acoustic output to locations without an existing sound system. Units that can be deployed quickly and operate by radio reduce the need for long cable runs, separate loudspeaker equipment and extensive operational effort. Recurring tasks are controlled centrally and monitored or carried out by , reducing the need for staff to move around the site as well as for operating and security posts.
meets the requirements of DIN EN 50849 for electroacoustic emergency warning systems. The system was developed specifically for safety-relevant announcements and alerting and is technically designed for both everyday operation and emergency situations. DIN EN 50849 represents the relevant reference framework for ELA systems. Unlike mobile network-based systems, does not depend on any external network and is therefore immediately ready for use at all times — fully meeting the standard as a result. Other standards known from safety technology, such as DIN EN 54, DIN VDE 0833-4 and DIN 14675 (voice alarm systems), do not apply to , as they are not applicable to radio-based public address systems like . is a public address system for temporary and mobile applications and has been used successfully many times for mission-critical communication tasks since 2017. RADACOM and your regional partner will be happy to advise you on the wide range of functions and support you in implementing the requirements cost-effectively. selectively targets individual announcement locations, defined areas or the entire site. This makes it possible to broadcast warnings, visitor information and evacuation announcements exactly where they are needed, without unnecessarily broadcasting to all other areas. For visitor flows that change significantly, this area-specific communication is essential because bottlenecks, entrances and waiting zones can be informed according to the situation. can implement different functions via a single, integrated communication platform. These savings can quickly offset the rental and installation costs of . You can find several specific examples of savings here. When the wide range of functions is used consistently, the result is often not only a higher level of safety and easier work for employees, but also savings in the overall budget. mainly reduces the effort required for separate loudspeaker, control and communication solutions. Material requirements and cabling work are reduced, and information and emergency announcements can be made from a single location. In addition, can specifically replace personnel: tasks that would otherwise require several security, reporting or operating posts distributed across the site can be handled from a single location through central announcements, remote control and status monitoring. This allows staff to be reduced or deployed more effectively at safety-critical points. In this way, rental and installation costs are offset by savings in personnel and other technology. Especially for temporary, time-limited events, this significantly reduces the costs of planning, setting up and operating the safety technology. operates via its own autonomous radio network and independently of public communication networks and their availability. Since does not rely on cable routes but communicates by radio, the connection is automatically re-established after an interruption. has an internal battery with up to 16 hours of runtime and also powers connected accessory modules. Even if the mobile network is overloaded, the internet provider has been hacked or someone has pulled the wrong plug, continues to operate. This ensures that visitor safety at Sachsen-Anhalt-Tag 2028 remains reliable even in the event of a power failure or disruptions to public communication networks. is rented by the day through certified partners, including advice, instruction and technical support.
