Why IP Monitoring?

  • Analog technologies such as copper phone lines are becoming more costly to maintain, and are therefore more expensive for the end user.
  • In some cases, they are simply non-existent. Analog alarm dialers are no exception. Many businesses and now even new residential subdivisions are moving to fibre to the door.

    This means no analog phone lines, and VoIP for communications.

The problem with VoIP for alarm dialers is that due to many of the compression techniques used, the handshake, DTMF, and kiss-off tones are often completely lost on transmission.
