Additional complexity is added to the system when some capacity for voice alerting the
stations and talk-back communications from the stations is considered. There are two
methods for available for handling voice audio traffic: VoIP over the network or using a
radio channel.
Using the VoIP Gateway approach reduces the demands on the radio channels in use and
prevents fire station alerts from being delayed by other radio traffic on the repeater.
Figure 2 provides an example of the basic system when the VoIP Intercom is used.
