HW-AV-LTE-M - Honeywell Commercial Fire CLSS Dual-Path Ethernet/Cellular AT&T/Verizon LTE-M Alarm Communicator (for Universal Fire Alarm Control Panels)
Please Note: GeoArm does NOT provide alarm monitoring services for this device. We recommend the M2M MQ03-LTE-M-FIRE-AV communicator as a comparable alternative.
The Honeywell HW-AV-LTE-M is a commercial fire dual-path (internet and cellular multi-band AT&T/Verizon LTE) alarm communicator designed for universally compatible fire alarm panels. The Honeywell HW-AV-LTE-M is a Connected Life Safety Services (CLSS) fire alarm communicator with integrated features powered by the CLSS Cloud.
The CLSS Pathway combines dial capture functionality with the powerful capabilities of Honeywell's CLSS Cloud. It represents the latest alarm communications technology for the fire industry. The CLSS Pathway allows data transmission by utilizing LTE CAT-M1 networks, serving as a bridge between the fire system and the CLSS Cloud. This device provides a single site-to-cloud path ensuring all CLSS Cloud services use the same audited and monitored method to access the on-premises life safety system.
The CLSS Pathway is commissioned via the CLSS mobile app and CLSS Site Manager interface, which also allow for additional remote visibility. Connection and mounting is simplified using the enclosure kit. The CLSS Pathway is compatible with any fire alarm dialer using Contact ID format and automatically recognizes the format when powered up. Any number can be programmed into the panel phone numbers. Installers can select the central station service they wish to use from a list of approved central station providers. Only account numbers assigned by the central station must be programmed and the dialer selected for tone dialing output.
Equipped with dual SIM cards, the CLSS Pathway supports both AT&T and Verizon networks. When first powered on, the communicator selects the strongest signal. If either path is not available, the device provides redundant paths for the cellular signal. The HW-AV-LTE-M dual-path communicator transmits signals to the AlarmNet Control Center (via the internet or AT&T/Verizon cellular LTE network), which in turn routes signals to the GeoArm central station. If the Internet and AT&T or Verizon LTE networks are all unavailable (fail), the message will not be sent using this HW-AV-LTE-M communicator.
Honeywell CLSS is an innovative, all-in-one cloud platform that enables systems integrators and facilities managers to deliver an enhanced fire safety service, while maximizing the performance efficiencies offered by Honeywell's trusted detection and alarm systems.
