    What are the benefits of a FIRE-LINK Broadband Connection to Alarm New Zealand?

 

A Fire-Link broadband connection is the very latest method of monitoring Alarms on a customers premises and offers many additional features and capabilities our competitors cannot or will not offer. These include FTP image service, VPN secure channel, VoIP Emergency Telephone services and a ability to monitor multiple devices including Security, Video, Medical, Building Automation and HVAC services. Future Proof your  building monitoring needs now with the technology solution that is destined to be the benchmark for decades to come.

An analogue alarm relies on the POTS ( Plain Old Telephone System ) to send signals to a central alarm monitoring station (CMS) using DTMF tones within the voice channel as a transport layer. A broadband alarm uses IP protocols to communicate to the CMS and when it does this without the need of a backup POTs line its called a "native" broadband IP Alarm system.
