Different types of home alarm monitoring we provide
Types of Home Alarm Monitoring
Dialler Monitoring – Phone Monitoring
Dialler monitoring is the security monitoring standard of communication in Australia until the announcement of the NBN rolloutin 2007. Dialler monitoring is not compatible with NBN phone-lines. Dialler security monitoring uses the traditional fixed copper phone line to communicate to the monitoring control room where receivers decipher Dual tone multi frequency signal into use-able data. One of the downsides to Dialler monitoring is that phone lines can be cut therefor stopping alarm transmission.
4G cellular monitoring
4G cellular monitoring replaces uses mobile networks to transmit alarm signal to the security control room. This method replaces traditional monitoring as the NBN is rolled out and also provides a higher level of security as dual sim 4G can be utilised, this means it can run on the telstra network as a primary connection and optus network as a backup.
Another added security feature with 4G monitoring is poll rates can be selected as short as a 1 hour window, this essentially checks the connection between the panel and the control room once every hour where as traditional dialler monitoring send a test call once for 24 hour period. Being a cloud device we can also supply a remote arming and disarming app to applicable clients.
