Dual-Path Security Systems - GeoArm Security®

A dual-path security system is a security system that communicates alarm signals over two separate communication paths. Typically this involves a primary communication path, such as the internet or WiFi connection, and a secondary communication path, such as the wireless cellular towers. The purpose of having two communication paths is to ensure that the security system can still send alarm signals even if the primary communication path is disrupted or unavailable. This enhances the reliability and security of the system, and can help to ensure that any alarm signals are received by the end user and/or the GeoArm central monitoring station in the event of a breach or other security event. If professionally monitored, the live operator takes appropriate action, such as contacting the homeowner to verify if the alarm is a false alarm and then proceeds to dispatch the authorities.

The main reasons to choose a dual-path security system are:

1. Reliability: Having two separate communication paths means that if one path fails or is obstructed, the other path can still transmit the alarm signal. This makes the system much more reliable.

2. Resilience: Dual path communication can provide expanded coverage, which is helpful in areas that may otherwise not have full signal strength. This provides an additional layer of security and reduces the risk of communication failures.

3. Faster Response: With dual path communication, an alarm signal can be transmitted through both the primary and secondary pathways simultaneously, resulting in a faster response time from the monitoring center.

4. Increased Security: Dual path communication provides an extra level of security because it is more difficult for intruders to tamper with or disable both communication paths at the same time. Overall, a security system that communicates over dual alarm communication paths is a highly reliable, resilient, and secure option for protecting your property.
