  • 1.5 minutes (90 seconds) average delivery time.  All connected users will receive alerts between 0-180 sec, evenly distributed.
  • Alert audio (.wav) files are predefined and preloaded to desktop client applications
  • Communication over SSL (HTTPS)
  • Average check for new alerts packet size for one desktop client is ~2000 Bytes (total round trip including SSL handshake)
  • Average alert packet size (without audio, which is preloaded) is ~ 6 KB (total round trip including SSL handshake)
