PCS250G
The PCS250G GPRS Communicator Module, leverages the GPRS data channel to
provide wireless communication solutions for Paradox control panels. It offers reliable
and fast communication between properties and their respective monitoring stations,
the PCS250G is the vital link that keeps you connected.
Using cellular networks, the PCS250G reports to the monitoring station's automation
software via GPRS, ensuring that all communication is fast, reliable, and stable.
The PCS250G can be used as a backup to a traditional landline, or as a primary
communicator where no landline is available. It also adds remote home control
capabilities to a system, allowing you to arm / disarm with a simple text message (SMS).
Feel safe by taking control of your system, wherever you are.
With its contemporary design, and a modern hi-tech finish, the PCS250G GPRS
Communicator Module enables Paradox systems to be remotely controlled, continuously
monitored, and reliably connected at all times.
