-
At a glance
- Audio Beacon is an advanced audio surveillance solution offering two-way communication, visual alerts via an LED ring, and AI-powered sound detection for enhanced security.
- This device seamlessly integrates with existing VMS platforms and smart building systems, providing real-time situational awareness and robust data security for critical environments.

Hanwha Vision, a leader in security and surveillance solutions, introduces the SPS-A100M—an advanced audio surveillance solution designed to enhance real-time communication, deter threats, and visually signal events in critical environments. Equipped with a powerful 90 dB (decibel) speaker, five integrated microphones, and an LED ring, the Audio Beacon ensures you can hear, respond, and alert with unmatched clarity and speed.
From schools and hospitals to restricted areas where cameras may be limited, the Audio Beacon enables immediate awareness through high-volume alerts and full-duplex two-way audio, supporting rapid decision-making and direct communication with on-site individuals. The LED ring provides visual confirmation of triggered events, functioning as both a deterrent and a notification mechanism.
At the core of the Audio Beacon’s capabilities is its clear, high-output speaker and noise-reducing microphone system, enabling effective communication even in noisy environments. Whether used to broadcast warnings, speak directly to intruders, or respond during emergencies, the SPS-A100M adds an intelligent, interactive layer to your security infrastructure.
The LED ring enhances visibility of alerts in any lighting condition, offering customizable colors and patterns to signal different types of events. This ensures both staff and on-site individuals receive unmistakable visual cues in real time.
Additionally, the Audio Beacon incorporates AI-based sound classification to elevate real-time situational awareness. It can detect specific predefined sounds—such as screams or breaking glass—using deep learning. These capabilities enhance situational awareness in complex environments, helping to quickly identify and respond to critical events.
The Audio Beacon supports full integration with major VMS platforms like Genetec, Milestone, and Wisenet WAVE, and communicates across smart building systems using the MQTT protocol. It supports complex Boolean event logic and delivers alerts via FTP, email, HTTP/S, TCP, and more. With FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certification, secure boot, encrypted firmware, and a tamper-detection switch, the device ensures maximum data protection and reliability.
