The Value of Wireless Security Systems And Alarm Monitoring Services

The features of security systems continue to advance to the dismay of would be thieves. Wireless security systems and alarm monitoring services that are not hardwired to a telephone line are becoming more and more popular. Some wonder are they safe to use? What are some of the features of wireless security systems and wireless alarm monitoring in OKC and Tulsa?

Wireless security systems offer the security and convenience of not being dependent on the power grid or phone lines. This means a burglar cannot cut the phone lines and disarm the security system, and a power outage won’t shutdown your security system.

This non-dependence on phone lines means that installation is simple and easy with no hardwiring or drilling. Tenants are also not limited by electrical wiring as to where they put the system. Wireless also means that the system is easy to expand.

For example, wireless alarm monitoring from MacNet uses a private mesh radio communications network for signals from the monitored alarm panel to the central station. Using a mesh radio network, the system uses a redundancy of many signal paths to ensure the signal always reaches the central station.

And, because it’s wireless and not dependent on phone line, cellular networks, or the Internet, it requires little installation, is infinitely scalable, and won’t be put down by weather or power outages. Using mesh radio technology means this system will work in hard-to-reach areas where cellular and telephones don’t work.

These features allow you to have safe, reliable security system monitoring at all times and no matter where you are.
Wireless security systems also offer the convenience of personal remote monitoring. These systems can be monitored and controlled from nearly anywhere in the world using a tablet or smartphone.

If you purchase a professional supervised wireless security system there should be no interference. Older and more basic wireless security systems were more prone to interference from other security systems and electronic devices in the area, meaning the system could accidently sound an alarm based on someone’s nearby system or even baby monitor. But today more and more advanced wireless security systems use serial numbers and other proprietary technology to sync the system to only work with the control panel, eliminating the interference.

Most commercial security systems still use hardwired systems, but many homeowners are choosing wireless security systems because of the easy installation with no unsightly drilling holes or wires, the flexibility to easily move the system, the freedom from traditional telephone lines, and the advanced remote features.

After noting the cost effectiveness not having third-party communication fees and the increased reliability of mesh radio redundancy. Many companies in Tulsa and Oklahoma City are switching to a wireless alarm monitoring service like MacNet that is based on mesh radio technology.
