Not UL approved as a primary, can be used as a
secondary
A slight cost advantage on one phone line, but
requires two separate technologies to each

Wireless
Requires a secondary connection
source through the phone line.
Most networks have outages and you still need one phone line
for redundancy.Life Safety relies on IT?
CintasNet Radio Frequency communication

phone lineFastest signal and
communication - no dialing!
Need to have a signal at the
location prior to installing
No more phone lines for Fire Alarm Monitoring
saving money and increasing reliability.
