More Advanced and More Secure
Alarm.com doesn’t work like outdated alarm systems you’ve seen before. Instead of being tied to a phone line, which can easily be cut and disabled, our proven technology platform works wirelessly through advanced GSM cell phone towers to maintain a dedicated and secure connection.
That makes it more secure, and a great solution if you’ve already replaced your landline with a cell phone or VoIP line. Alarm.com-enabled security systems will even continue functioning for 24+ hours if the power goes out.
How it works
1Sensors installed throughout your home or business communicate all activity that takes place even when the system is disarmed.
2All of this information travels wirelessly (via the digital GSM network) through a secure, encrypted signal to the Alarm.com Operations Center.
3In the event of an alarm, the signal is routed to your central monitoring station for a 24/7 emergency response.*
* Alarm.com does not operate the central monitoring station, but instead works with over 200 third-party central monitoring stations and more than 2,000 licensed security dealers throughout North America to enable fast and reliable wireless signaling and emergency response. Contact your authorized Alarm.com dealer for details on their central monitoring station services.
An Alarm.com security system interacts with the central station faster than a traditional alarm to send out a speedier response.
It’s not just a security system
When we created Alarm.com, we wanted to take advantage of all the power of advanced wireless, web and mobile technologies to make something truly better and safer. That’s why we can offer you features that aren’t available from other home monitoring systems.
