Barix Announces Wi-Fi Voice Paging App for iOS Devices

New app gives iPhone, iPad users a true IP audio paging solution -- without the complexity of IP

ZURICH, Jan. 31, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Barix AG, a pioneer in IP audio, control and monitoring, brings voice paging to the iPhone and iPad via the Barix Wi-Fi Paging App -- the first open-standards IP and multicast voice announcer application for mobile iOS devices. 

The Barix Wi-Fi Paging App, now available in the iTunes App Store, enables zoned voice paging from iOS devices on commercial, public and residential properties.  Barix's open-standards approach turns nearly any VoIP or IP Audio receiving device into a simple IP paging/announcement system.  Besides the full range of Barix IP Audio devices, many IP phones are supported, as well as third-party IP Paging gateways and speakers.  A one-time configuration process ensures that users can quickly set up a paging solution for immediate and ongoing use without hassle.

"Barix is bringing more than ten years of knowledge and leadership in VoIP and IP audio devices to the smartphone universe," said Johannes G. Rietschel, CEO and founder of Barix.  "The Barix Paging App draws from our professional IP Audio and paging knowhow to make Wi-Fi paging available for millions of smartphone owners across commercial, residential, medical and professional markets."

Ease of use is central to the Barix Paging App.  Upon download, users add existing paging receivers such as IP phones, IP speakers or VoIP paging gateways in the setup part of the application.  Configurations are stored within the app or an optional location device, ensuring a one-time setup process per site.  For existing Barix customers, the configuration process can automatically discover Barix IP Audio devices.

Users can assign photos to each device or zone to create clear visuals for the paging targets.  Once setup is complete, users can make announcements to one, many or all configured targets by simply touching the appropriate zone icons and initiating audio with the "push-to-talk" soft-button.  Real-world applications include calling the kids for dinner and making announcements to all classrooms in a K-12 school.

Barix VoIP-enabled IP Audio products compatible with the Wi-Fi Paging App include its one- and two-way hardware devices and paging gateways; and its affordable Power over Ethernet (PoE) master paging stations.
