Adding Security andCommunication to aHigh-Rise Building Complex
THE SCENARIOTHE SOLUTION

In the heart of the city, construction had begun on astriking skyscraper, destined to become a city
landmark with its stylish and futuristic exterior design.
The building was planned to accommodate a hotel,residential apartments, offices, and commercialfacilities. The design consultant was especially
focused on ensuring that the interior design
harmonized with the building's stylish exterior. They
had a strong desire for a sophisticated and stylishintercom room station as an integral part of the interior
design.

Based on the design consultant's recommendation, theowner selected an advanced IP video intercom systemthat met the project's requirements. Prior to the owner’s
decision, the design consultant was shown an actualintercom system during a presentation and greatly
appreciated the stylish design of the entrance and roomstation, which influenced recommendation of the system.

To enhance security, an intercom system was needed
where front desk staff would manage initialinteractions with visitors. Visitors and residents would
only communicate if residents granted permission.
This required an intercom system capable ofimplementing these features.
The building consultant was looking for a state-of-theart system that would allow front desk staff to callresidents/tenants not only to the room station but also
to their smartphones. This was highly convenient, asresidents/tenants can respond immediately with theirsmartphones, eliminating the need to go to the roomwith the intercom, or they could answer the call evenwhen they were out of their apartment/office.

The desired communication mode was achieved using
the IP video intercom system‘s transfer function. Whenvisitors called from an entrance station to a guardstation, a staff member verified the purpose and, upon
approval, used the transfer function to connect the visitor
directly with the resident for communication.
The IP video intercom system has a mobile app thatallows smartphones to be used as room station. When astaff calls, the call is sent to both the room station andthe mobile app, enabling video communication insideand outside the apartment.
An IP-based intercom system can be deployed not only
within a skyscraper but also across various locations,regardless of physical distance. The system operates
without concerns about communication distancelimitations.

Due to the building's height exceeding 40 floors, theintercom system needed to cover extensive
communication distances between the entrance, front
desk, and each apartment and office. Conventional
intercom systems, with their limited communication
range, could not meet this requirement.

The owner selected an advanced IP video intercom
system with a sophisticated and stylish intercom
room station blending with futuristic exterior design.
