Notifier by Honeywell's MD, John Brandwood (pictured here, left, with Voce, Network Rail's Terry Fowler and Notifier by Honeywell's Richard Hill), added: "The results of the strategic partnership between Ateis and Notifier by Honeywell continue to gain momentum. Following the success of the Shepherd's Bush pilot, Network Rail's approval demonstrates the excellence and flexibility of Ateis equipment and the expertise that the Notifier by Honeywell ESD network offers in the provision of integrated PA/VA communications and safety systems."

Welcome to the Ateis UK Website

Ateis is a manufacturer of Public Address and Voice Alarm equipment working in the UK in partnership with experienced distributors and installers. Ateis has become synonymous with high quality Voice Alarm and Public Address systems in the transportation sector across Europe.

For over 20 years, Ateis has manufactured public address and voice alarm products, boasting some landmark installations across the globe, including Dubai Festival City (a large residential, business and entertainment development), the Paris Metro and Gare d'Est station and Sweden's amazing Turning Torso skyscraper.

Ateis UK – a fully fledged subsidiary of the already established international group – was launched in March 2008 under the guidance of MD Neil Voce. Voce has over twenty years of experience working in the UK public address and voice alarm sector and has played a major role in designing some of the world's most complex public address and voice systems ranging from dealing rooms in the city to the Millennium Stadium and the O2 Arena. The synergy provided by this combination has meant that Ateis UK has got off to a flying start in the UK market, quickly establishing a portfolio of key UK customers, and winning, in association with Notifier by Honeywell, the much coveted Network Rail Acceptance certification for their public address and voice alarm solutions. We're looking forward to building on this success in the UK and feel the product range is well attuned to modern demands.

Ateis Launches ECS-Teleconference System

Ateis has addressed a problem that has long plagued teleconferencing by releasing the ECS-Teleconference unit.

The ECS-Teleconference unit is an echo cancellation system (ESC) that is designed to produce clear audio for teleconferences, with no delays or doubletalk.

At the heart of the system is a digital signal processor using DYNAMIC Automatic Echo Cancellation, based on a wideband acoustic echo cancelling algorithm developed by Ateis' R&D department.

This groundbreaking technology enables the ECS to produce natural, full duplex speech with a bandwidth of 20Hz to 27kHz, which brings huge benefits during conversations involving large numbers of people.

The ECS range currently comprises eight units, which provide a range of tools for producing clear, successful teleconferences. The system features integrated compressor-limiters, equalisation, matrixes and delay capability, augmented by configurable routers and comprehensive signal processing.

This is all controlled from the ATEIS-NET graphical user interface, while additional components are available from the ECS DSP library to create larger, more fully functioned systems. These include Automatic Gain Control, Feedback Killers, Meters, Generators and Automatic Microphone Mixers.

Users are able to program how audio signals are processed within the ECS to suit their personal preferences or the demands of the installation. The entire system can be configured using PC software and controlled using specific screens, RS232 or optional remote controllers. Multiple ECSs can be run over Ethernet, ATEIS netLink or ATEIS Fibre-NetLink.

ECS features up to 16 wideband AES software modules and a maximum of 24 configurable hardware units, which have electronically balanced inputs and outputs. Also included are a telephone interface, Ethernet port and a remote control bus.

"Teleconferencing is vital in these days of fast-paced international business but there is an even greater need for clear communications with no delays," comments Ateis' International Sales Manager, Albert van der Hout. "The new ECS gives excellent audio quality and allows users to program it to suit their needs. We see ECS as an important new tool for businesses around the world."
