The Alula BAT-FIRE-ATT is a universal dual-path internet/cellular AT&T 5G LTE-M commercial fire alarm communicator. The BAT-FIRE-ATT communicator connects to an intrusion or fire alarm control panel (FACP) and provides central station alarm reporting.
The BAT-FIRE-ATT can be configured to provide dual-path connectivity using Ethernet/broadband and cell or single-path connectivity using either Ethernet/broadband or cell to Bosch Conettix D6100IPv6 receivers at the central station. The BAT-FIRE-ATT allows system integrators to save money, maximize install flexibility and skip the 4G cellular sunset.
It provides two PSTN interfaces for the FACP/burg panel's DACT phone line connections. The BAT-Fire's DACT phone interface connection provides phone line voltage, dial tone, ringback tone and all required CID protocol signaling. The BAT-FIRE-ATT receives CID events from the FACP/burg panel's DACT and then relays the CID events to the central station receiver.
The BAT-FIRE-ATT provides inputs that can be used to monitor an FACP's alarm, AC fail, and trouble points (dry contact outputs). In this topology BAT-Fire inputs will be connected to the FACP points (dry contact outputs). The communicator will continually monitor the state of the FACP points (dry contact outputs). A state change on a BAT-FIRE-ATT monitored FACP point (dry contact output) will be reported to the central station.

Please Note: The Alula BAT-FIRE-ATT fire alarm communicator requires a subscription to Alula monitoring services powered by GeoArm Security. For UL 864 10th edition, this configuration may only be used for panels with one input zone. 9th edition and earlier permitted this method for multiple protection zones.
