Modern communication. Faster alerts. Safer campuses.

When seconds matter, schools need more than a traditional PA system. They need smart, connected, and responsive technology — and that’s exactly what the new AXIS C1720 Network Display Speaker delivers.

Built to handle everything from everyday announcements to critical safety alerts, the C1720 combines audio, visual, and analytical intelligence in one powerful unit — helping IT and security managers modernize communication across the entire campus.

🧠 What Makes the AXIS C1720 Different

The C1720 isn’t just another speaker. It’s a dual-sided, network-connected, 3-in-1 safety and communication system that unifies a high-output speaker, bright RGBW strobe bar, and full-color LCD text display into one sleek unit.

Key Highlights:

• Dual speakers and displays for full hallway coverage.

• Strobe and text display that grab attention in noisy or crowded spaces.

• Full-duplex two-way audio with built-in echo cancellation.

• Remote health monitoring and auto speaker testing — verify device performance from anywhere.

• Audio prioritization and zoning — urgent alerts override regular announcements.

• Open integration platform (ACAP & SIP) for mass notification, VoIP, and video management systems.

• Single-cable (PoE) installation with wall or ceiling mount options.

• Built-in motion sensor (PIR) for smart automation and event triggers.

🔐 Smarter Security with Built-In Audio Analytics

The AXIS C1720 also supports advanced audio analytics applications that can automatically detect critical sounds such as:

• 🧍‍♂️ Aggression or raised voices – early detection of confrontations or bullying in hallways.

• 💥 Glass break – immediate alert of vandalism or forced entry.

• 🚨 Gunshot or distress sounds – enabling faster emergency response.

These analytics run directly on the device, leveraging the Axis Camera Application Platform (ACAP) for on-edge processing. This means your school can integrate real-time detection and response capabilities without relying on external servers — a huge advantage for budget-conscious IT teams and those prioritizing data privacy.

🏫 Ideal Applications for K-12 and Higher Education

• Hallways & corridors: Dual-sided coverage ensures visibility and audibility in both directions.

• Entrances & vestibules: Combine audio messages, strobe lights, and analytics for proactive deterrence.

• Cafeterias & gyms: Broadcast clear messages over ambient noise.

• Classrooms & admin areas: Integrate with VoIP or mass-notification systems for targeted announcements.

• Outdoor covered areas: IP40-rated enclosure provides reliable performance in semi-exposed spaces.

🧩 Seamless Integration with Existing School Systems

The C1720 works with industry-standard notification platforms like Singlewire InformaCast®, Intrado Revolution®, Lynx Systems®, and Alertus®, as well as SIP-based VoIP systems (Zoom, Webex, Avaya, Cisco, and more).

It’s also compatible with Genetec Security Center, Axis Camera Station, and other VMS systems — making it a perfect fit for integrated campus security environments.
