Cignetix, our long-term partner in Dubai, was responsible for the supply, programming and commissioning of the solution, which includes an integrated fire alarm system with voice evacuation, fire telephone and smoke management capabilities. The network of Axis EN fire alarm panels, with support for up to 200 nodes, ensures seamless system-wide communication throughout the tower. 

Axis EN panels have provided a fully addressable solution that meets EN54 Parts 2 and 4, delivering rapid response times, robust networking, and reliable performance across all residential and common areas. With its enhanced configuration capabilities and intuitive programming, the system has been tailored to the unique layout and safety requirements of the high-rise. 

Axis EN offers a flexible and future-proof solution for protecting large, high-rise residential developments such as Sobha S Tower.  

Speaking about the versatility of the Axis EN solution, Sunil Kumar Gopalkrishnan, Managing Director at Cignetix, said: “Cignetix is proud to have delivered a fully integrated fire and emergency lighting solution for Sobha S Tower. Working with Advanced’s Axis EN fire system has allowed us to combine powerful technology with our experience in life safety system delivery. The result is a future-ready infrastructure that supports the safety and wellbeing of residents without compromising on performance or scalability.” 

Sasi Kumar, General Manager (MEA) at Advanced, added: “Sobha S Tower reflects the growing demand for high-specification safety systems in luxury developments across the Middle East. Our Axis EN panels provide the ideal foundation for sophisticated installations of this kind, offering powerful networking, extensive configuration capabilities, and ease of integration with wider building management systems.
