Code Blue CBCE00008 Centry Surface Mount Help Point
Overview
The Code Blue CBCE00008 is a surface-mount help point designed for integration into networked communication and emergency call systems. Unlike traditional pendant call stations, this unit combines a 1080p camera with full-duplex two-way audio, three contact closures (input and output), and piezoelectric button controls — solving the problem of standalone emergency communication in facilities where you need both visual confirmation and integrated alarm signaling. The CBCE00008 fits wall or header mounting in lobbies, corridors, and facility entries where staff or visitors need to summon assistance with documented evidence. It runs on standard PoE (802.3af), drawing power from your network infrastructure without separate electrical runs.
Compatibility
The CBCE00008 integrates with BAS (Building Automation System) platforms, networked video management systems, and emergency call systems that accept ONVIF-compliant IP devices. The three contact-closure inputs and three outputs allow integration with door control logic, alarm panels, and lighting systems — typical in access-control and emergency-response workflows. H.264 and MPEG-4 video codec support ensures compatibility with legacy and modern VMS archiving. The unit's 4GB RAM and 3 Ethernet ports support redundant network paths and local buffering for call logging and playback. Confirm your VMS or BAS platform supports ONVIF Profile S or equivalent before deployment.
Installation Notes
Surface-mount dimensions are 4.75" W × 10.25" H × 2.875" D; flush variants (recessed into walls) measure 4.5" W × 10" H × 3.125" D. Operating temperature range of −40°C to 70°C suits indoor facilities and covered outdoor entries but not exposed-weather environments. The unit is conformal-coated and built to NEMA 3 standard for dust and moisture resistance; it is not rated for submersion or direct rain. Piezoelectric buttons won't stick or jam — important for high-traffic areas. ADA Braille markings are molded into the faceplate. Ring-lit LED beacon (colors configurable) signals active calls or system status. All three contact closures operate at 24VDC nominal; verify your control system's closure voltage before wiring. Install PoE injector or PoE switch within standard Ethernet reach (100m). No separate power supply required.
