During the pandemic, e-commerce experienced a significant boom, with more people ordering online than ever before. This led to a rapid increase in the number of warehouses needed to store all these items. According to a recent study, the number of warehouses worldwide is expected to increase by approximately 84%, reaching just under 180,000 by 2025 (Statista, 2021).

But what does this mean for you? It means that this industry vertical is growing, and many of your customers will be looking for communication and security solutions to meet the needs of warehouse managers and their employees. NTS Direct has several affordable options that you can offer so your customers can be prepared!

Communication

In large, loud warehouse spaces, it can be difficult for managers to deliver mass announcements to their employees. Deliveries might go unnoticed, scheduling may become disjointed, and the safety of the entire staff could be compromised in an emergency. To combat these pain points, Grandstream offers intercom and paging solutions.

One-Way Communications

GSC3505 + GSC3570

• The GSC3505 is a one-way speaker that supports Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. It can easily interconnect with Grandstream phones as well as any of the GDS series of access control products. Pairing the GSC3505 with the GSC3570 creates a state-of-the-art PA announcement solution for any warehouse environment without breaking the bank. 
• Featuring a 7-inch touchscreen display, the GSC3570 is a full duplex intercom. It offers HD audio with advanced echo cancellation to clarify audio communication and supports both Ethernet and 802.11ac Wi-Fi connectivity.

Two-Way Communications

GSC3510 + GSC3570

• Unlike the GSC3505, the GSC3510 supports two-way audio. It boasts a high-fidelity HD speaker, 3 directional microphones, and a pick-up distance of nearly 14 feet.
• Connecting the GSC3510 to the GSC3570 is simple and allows the warehouse manager to communicate with the entire facility and for the facility workers to communicate back – saving valuable time and energy.

Security

Grandstream's GSC3570 isn't just for managing communication, it's for managing security as well. It can easily be configured to remotely open loading dock doors or other entry points when paired with Grandstream's facility access systems and a simple locking mechanism.

Voice Only

• The GDS3705 is an RFID-enabled, audio-only intercom system that can be wired directly to a locking mechanism and installed next to each important entry point in a warehouse.
• The GSC3570 can then be used by the manager to monitor and accept incoming visitors, deliveries, and more safely and securely.

Video & Voice

The GDS3710 has all the features of the GDS3705 plus video capabilities. For those who appreciate an extra level of security, it can easily be connected to up to 32 of Grandstream's HD IP cameras which can be placed inside and outside the warehouse.

Each of these devices are designed to be integrated with the GSC3570, allowing not only audio but video monitoring as well.
