phone services are available in a number of areas. These
services provide good phone service but our customers
need to understand the drawbacks of such services. have
a set of steps that will need to be completed
before they will work with
your security system. Please review the following
information before you choose a VoIP.
Drawbacks
- Emergency 911 service - May not
give your location information in case of an
emergency.
- Your system will be monitored
using the public internet as the means of
communication. (The internet can, and probably will,
fail at certain times).
- You will need to provide
standby electrical power to your ADSL, cable modem
and other devices such as hubs, routers, or switches
that may affect the internet communications with a
recommended stand by duration of 24 hours, but in
all cases not less than 15 minutes. Please be aware
that communications will fail if the power for any
computer equipment is lost.
There are many different VoIP
providers. Some use compatible technologies and some do
not. Please contact us before
