Cellular Monitoring from LyraSafe
What is cellular monitoring?
Cellular alarm monitoring services are the best communication path connecting with the monitoring station. It operates on a dedicated cellular channel, the system sends a wireless signal via a secure, encrypted transmission to the Central Monitoring Station in case of an emergency. Cellular monitoring uses its own dedicated network to send and receive signals, so you do not need a cell phone to upgrade to cellular monitoring.
Are landlines becoming obsolete?
Almost 25% of Americans now live in homes without a landline and that figure doubles among young adults (aged 25-29). While there is no hard cut-off date for landline termination, Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS) will most likely be retired in favor of more reliable, cost-effective and flexible cellular communication.
What are the benefits of cellular monitoring?
Traditional POTS line monitoring always had a flaw, if the burglar cuts the phone line, they could do anything in the home but there will not be any monitoring. Also, more people are switching to cell phones as their only source of communication, Cellular Monitoring has become more relevant and is now the standard for home security solutions.
You stay connected, no matter what transmitting on a separate, secure wireless network, cellular monitoring means being in constant communication with the central station when:
- Power outages cut lines due to extreme weather
- You change telephone service provider
- Burglars cut your lines prior to entry
