Back to Base Alarm Monitoring Gold Coast

With a significant increase in crime on the Gold Coast in recent years, back to base alarm monitoring should be an essential part of every security system. A monitored alarm provides a continuous record of conditions at your property, so you have a complete picture of what has occurred even in your absence. Any change in conditions can be transmitted immediately to the control room and the appropriate response initiated. It only takes a matter of seconds from alarm activation to notification of the monitoring service to provide a response to intruder alarms, duress alarms, power failures and electrical or equipment faults.

At Aztech Integrated Systems, we provide contract free back to base alarm monitoring from as little as $1 a day (ex GST).

There are two ways that your alarm system can communicate with the monitoring centre:

      Home Phone Line

Telephone Line Least Secure

Telephone Line Least Secure

This is the most common method but also the least secure. On activation of your security system, the alarm takes over the phone line and dials the monitoring centre to report.

PROS

      • Most homes already have a phone line in place, therefore no additional components will be required. (NB. ADSL users will however, require a filter.)

CONS

      • If the phone line is cut, the alarm cannot dial out and hence cannot notify the monitoring centre of the security breach.
      • Every time your alarm activates, you are charged for a phone call on your phone bill.

 

GPRS Secure Wireless Network

This is fast becoming the preferred method as no phone line is required and as a result, the communication path to the monitoring centre cannot be interfered with.

PROS

        • Communication path cannot be interfered with.
        • No extra call costs.

CONS

      • One off charge for the required unit.
      • Slightly higher quarterly monitoring charges.
