AMPAC EvacU^Elite vs VIGILANT QE20

Two Australian-market EWIS platforms that solve the same problem from different directions. The EvacU^Elite is Ampac’s scalable, touchscreen-driven platform with the warden intercom fully integrated and a two-wire fault-tolerant loop. The QE20 is VIGILANT’s modular Grade 1 EWCIE, built around dense Class D amplification and multi-purpose module cards. Both network to 64 nodes and both keep working locally when the network drops.
