2026 NAB Show
April 19 - 22
Booth C3452
At the 2026 NAB Show, Digital Alert Systems will showcase Version 6.0 of its DASDEC emergency messaging software and highlight new developments across its alerting and device management platforms. Attendees will see how broadcasters are using those systems to strengthen Emergency Alert System (EAS) operations and prepare for evolving ATSC 1.0 and ATSC 3.0 workflows. The company will also introduce the new DAS-Link AIR, an over-the-air common alert protocol (CAP) dissemination system for securely transferring validated alert information over ATSC transmissions.
New for NAB: Version 6 Emergency Messaging Software
Digital Alert Systems continues to advance the DASDEC platform with feature development and expanded security. Version 6 is built on a more robust and continually supported operating system that helps protect networked equipment as cybersecurity expectations increase. It provides a stable foundation for future enhancements and makes DASDEC systems easier to maintain.
The update also includes all features from the previously optional Plus Package, giving customers broader functionality within a single release.
Version 6.0 is available at no cost to customers enrolled in the Digital Alert Systems Software Assurance Plan, those who have purchased a new DASDEC unit, and participants in the company's UP TRADE program dating back to October 2025.
DAS-Flex
For the first time at NAB, the company will show DAS-Flex , which combines the DASDEC emergency alerting platform with the D2D Flex ATSC multiplexer. The integrated system is designed to support uninterrupted broadcast operations during emergencies or infrastructure failures. By pairing alerting and ATSC transport, DAS Flex provides redundancy, reliability, and resilience for a range of broadcast applications.
HALO
Digital Alert Systems' patented HALO EAS device-monitoring platform will showcase two new modules:
The Software Distribution Module (SDM) provides centralized, in-version software upgrade management for DASDEC devices running Version 6.0-0 or later. Users can upload, organize, and control software upgrade files directly within HALO. Built-in intelligence automatically identifies compatible upgrades for each device, simplifying deployment. Users may push updates to any number of devices and track progress, status, and upgrade history across their full fleet.
The Enhanced Configuration Module (ECM) offers clearer oversight of device configuration and alert behavior. It gives engineers and compliance teams deeper visibility into critical settings and alert data within an interface designed for easier navigation and auditing
DAS-Link AIR
Digital Alert Systems will introduce DAS-Link AIR, a secure data gateway designed for ATSC environments. The system ingests broadcast data via integrated ATSC 1.0 and ATSC 3.0 receivers, authenticates both source and data, and delivers validated emergency information with multimedia elements for use in mission-critical communications workflows.
The DAS-Link AIR provides an authenticated IP feed to external systems in a controlled and secure manner. Use cases include:
Retrieval of ATSC 1.0/3.0 datacast alert content by external systems via polling of the DAS-Link remote node appliance, consistent internet-based CAP message workflows
Automated ingestion of datacast alert content into third-party situational awareness platforms
Polling access for monitoring systems to confirm datacast alert availability
Secure access for intermediary distribution platforms that repackage datacast alerts into other delivery formats for downstream users
Company Quote:
Our company has been in continuous operation for over 73 years, a testament to how we support our customers' ever-changing requirements. Our flexible emergency messaging platforms offer a customizable solution for everyone, from the smallest low-power station to the largest full-power broadcaster, and the new DAS-Link AIR showcases further innovation in this area. We're happy to provide a critical link that bridges public alerts and information for listeners and viewers around the world.
Bill Robertson, Vice President of Business Development for Digital Alert Systems
