Mass Communication Solution for Schools
Make a live announcement from the front office to one room, a wing, or the whole school with the Netbell school PA system. Add scheduled bells and classroom talkback as needed. Pair Netbell with VidiMax to place visual emergency instructions on compatible classroom and hallway screens, so staff can hear and see the message.
Trusted by industry leaders
The Netbell School PA System is a PoE-powered, easy-to-deploy solution for paging one classroom, selected zones, or the entire campus. Staff can make live announcements, schedule school bells, and play prerecorded announcements or emergency messages. Pair Netbell with VidiMax to display visual instructions on compatible screens.
From an IP call station or VoIP phone, send morning announcements to the whole school, or a message for one teacher to just one room.
With an IP Call Box and speaker in each classroom, teachers can answer the office, ask a question, or call for help – without leaving their students or walking down the hall.
Add the Netbell-NTG-B tone generator for automated class change bells, early-release schedules, drills, and pre-recorded reminders. Staff manage everything from any web browser and can switch schedules in a couple of clicks.
Pre-recorded lockdown, evacuation, shelter-in-place, and severe weather alerts can be triggered instantly from the QuickAction desktop app, network push buttons around the building, or a wireless key fob.
Your old paging system works fine – until you add a wing, a portable classroom, or a new building. Use the Netbell-BT-105 to bridge your existing analog PA system to the Netbell IP audio network. Keep the zones that still work, add IP speakers wherever you’re growing, and add more features as needed.
A quiet classroom during a test, or a loud gym at an assembly, can miss an announcement. VidiMax shows the same lockdown or weather alert on classroom TVs and office monitors – so every room sees it and hears it.
How It works
If you have a PoE network at each speaker location, installing is just mounting the speakers with a screwdriver. Setting up the software takes a couple of hours.
Run network cables from the PoE switch to the speakers in classrooms, hallways, and other coverage areas.
Create groups and paging zones, then adjust each speaker’s volume for its location.
Connect the IP microphone to the network and choose which zones it pages. Set your school bell schedules from a standard web browser.
Page live, play pre-recorded messages, and let scheduled bells run automatically throughout the school day.

A school PA system is a public address system for a campus, used for live announcements, classroom intercom, class-change bells, and emergency alerts. The Netbell school PA system is web-based and has no monthly fees
With the Netbell-MIC-813 call station, the Netbell school PA system pages any single classroom, any wing, or the entire campus. Speakers are grouped into zones by grade, floor, or building, so an announcement for one teacher reaches one room instead of interrupting every class.
Yes, a classroom can talk back to the office when you add a Netbell-CB-6206 IP Call Box with classroom speaker, so the office can call a classroom and hear the teacher reply, and a teacher can press its call button to reach the office directly.
Yes, you can add a Netbell-NTG-B tone generator for the school bell function. The Netbell-NTG-B schedules custom pre-recorded messages for automatic class-change bells, fire drills, routine reminders, and emergency notifications.
When you add the Netbell-NTG-B tone generator to the system, a lockdown alert can be activated from the QuickAction app from any computer, from a push button at the desk, or from network push buttons placed around campus so any staff member can trigger it from where they are. Add VidiMax and the same alert appears on compatible classroom TVs and displays.
The Netbell school PA system broadcasts weather alerts automatically when paired with VidiMax, which monitors National Weather Service alerts for your county and fires a pre-recorded message on your speakers while updating every display in the school – no staff action required. Together they function as a mass notification system for schools, so a tornado or severe-storm warning reaches classrooms day or night, even when no one is watching a screen.
The Netbell school PA system has no recurring cost – no monthly fees, no subscriptions, and no special software. It’s designed and supported in the USA.
Absolutely. The Netbell-BT-105 allows you to add modern IP speakers to new areas of your facility while keeping your existing analog paging system exactly as it is. Simply connect the BT-105 to your current amplifiers via its line output, then add IP speakers over your network – no need to trace old wiring or reconfigure your existing setup. This makes expansion simple and cost-effective as your school grows.
