Solving the VoIP & Alarm Communication Problem
What Is VoIP?
VoIP is an acronym for "voice over internet protocal," and transmit phone calls through the internet rather than land lines. Companies such as Vonage, Clear and Magic Jack are all VoIP service providers.
Testing Your System
To determine whether your alarm system is working properly and your monitoring station is receiving all the signals, follow these few simple steps:
1. Call you monitoring station and tell them you want to place your alarm system on test. They should ask you for your password and the time period for the test (30 min.).
2. Arm your system and after the exit delay is finished open doors, windows, walk in front of motion detectors, etc.
3. After you have triggered all your alarm zones, disarm your system. Wait about a minute and call the monitoring station and ask them if they received your signals. They will tell you every signal they received, if they received any signals at all.
If they didn't receive your alarm or all the signals you sent, you need the Aegis BBAC.
Introducing the BBAC
Understanding the Problem
For VoIP to be able to transmit a call, it must first convert the analog signal into a digital signal and then reconvert it back to analog at the other end. It is during these conversions that the information being sent by the alarm panel gets distorted, broken, garbled or lost. The bottom line is alarm signals sent through VoIP are not reliable. They may get through one day, but miss on another.
Broadband Alarm Communicator
The traditional and costly approach to solving this problem was to add a radio/cellular transmitter to your alarm panel with a price tag of $200-300+. This option also came with an increase to your monthly monitoring and an extension to your monitoring contract. AND that service may become extinct in the future: Read article.
If you are planning to change your phone service, or already have changed over to VoIP, you need to know the risks regarding your alarm system's ability to communicate reliably.
