The document discusses alarm monitoring systems and their communication methods, including landline, internet, 3G, LTE, and dual-path connectivity options. It explains how these systems send alerts to central monitoring stations and the advantages and disadvantages of each communication method. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of reliable communication for effective security in alarm systems.

3. Introduction
● Alarm monitoring is a brisk and definite
correspondence between your home security
system and the central station of your security
supplier.
● The system control board is the combination of
an organization of sensors, which may
incorporate with window or door sensors,
motion detectors, tamper sensors on the
telephone box, or specialized temperature,
flood, and smoke detectors.

4. How Does Alarm System Communication Works
?
● As we discussed above the control board registers a crisis
function and imparts a sign to the central monitoring
station, appropriate authorities are notified and send to
your home.
● Now we are going to see the different communication
options available in the alarm monitoring system.

5. 1 .Telephone Landline
● This was the main alternative for
correspondences in the early days.
● The system would impart signs to the
monitoring station over the associated
telephone line.
● But this alternative has so many drawbacks.
● Its very easy to disable the system by cutting
the lines.
● The system may get complicated in many
situations.

6. 2. Internet Communication
● This is a more advanced alarm system communication
innovation and it has some more leeway over phone
landline.
● We can transmit more extensive exhibit and a bigger
volume of information through an internet connection.
● This can be helpful in light of the fact that the system
can interface with a cloud server for transferring video
from surveillance cameras or for storing records of alarm
system activity.

7. ● With this sort of system, the alarm panel
would associate with your home or
business network over Wifi.
● At the point when the system is in
activity, it would communicate all signals
and information over the internet.
● The lower cost makes this choice alluring to numerous people, but it accompanies
weaknesses that are like phone landlines.
● The system can be disabled by cutting the wires of internet connection before attempting
to enter the home or business and impair the caution communicator.
● If the power goes out, the modem will stop working and that would interrupt the
communication of the alarm system.

8. 3. 3G Wireless Cellular Alarm Monitoring
● In 3G wireless communication, the panel has a remote
communication that is utilized to impart signals over
cell phone towers.
● This was a great option since it gives dependable
communications that are difficult to disturb.
● This type of system could provide protection that is
better than landline or internet.
● But, the main disadvantage of this system is that it
deals with mobile tower signals. During an event if
there is a signal disappointment or detach, the system
will stop its working.

9. 4. LTE Communication
● LTE is the most recent in versatile mobile wireless
communications technology. Like 3G, these systems
communicate over cell phone towers.
● This remote innovation is intended to be cutting-edge and
versatile to future changes to mobile communications
networks.
● In the event that you need versatile mobile communications,
this is the innovation to search for. It can dependably send
signs to the monitoring station and it is made to be ready
for the future.

10. 5. Dual-Path
Connectivity
● This is the gold standard of alarm communication.
● It consolidates LTE and broadband (Internet) to give two
ways to the system to communicate information.
● This not only provides redundancy if one communication
path is disrupted, but it also provides smarter
communications management for enhanced security.
● Even beyond redundancy, the system is always monitoring
the connections for speed and reliability so it can choose the
right path for transmitting data.

11. Conclusión
● Electronic alarm systems are comprised of three-segment parts intended to identify,
decide and stop crime or other undermining circumstances.
● The critical information is sent by your home security system to the alarm
monitoring center, including account identification (to access your address and
contact information) and the type of sensor that has been triggered.
● An alarm system can distinguish a function, for example, an attack, fire, gas spill or
ecological changes; decide whether the function represents danger, and afterward,
send a warning.
