OPTEX has released a new digital technology that they claim helps organisations to monitor and manage a broad spectrum of new and existing security systems and peripherals from a smartphone though a complementary user-friendly app.
OPTEX states that Olarm MAX is a discrete, Graded Dual-Path (DP) digital communicator that can be quickly and easily installed alongside a new and existing alarm panel to make them smart and effectively bring 21st century control to security technologies.
Coming at a time when the old Public Switch Telephone Network (PSTN) is being phased out, and users will be obliged to switch to a digital communicator, Olarm MAX provides a simple upgrade solution that enables new and existing technologies to be managed conveniently and remotely via the Olarm app with a level of user experience second to none.
This seamless user experience is matched by ease of installation, as using Olarm MAX means not having to replace the entire system or undertake any difficult re-wiring, and configuration while firmware updates can be actioned remotely.
It’s sleek design further simplifies where and how the device can be installed, almost without restriction, while an LED feature helps quickly diagnose any issues. Two input/output ports allow for further devices to be integrated as required.
“With the phasing out of PSTN over the next three years, this new communicator not only satisfies a clearly defined need, but also breathes new life into legacy systems, with an app that literally enables you to control everything from the palm of your hand,” Ben Linklater, Commercial Director at OPTEX EMEA said.
Compliant with industry standards, including features such as LoRaWAN protocol for low power, wide area networks, WiFi and dual sim connectivity.
It has a variety of security features built in, such as tamper protection and critical failure notification which will detect if someone is trying to remove it or provide notification in the event of complete system loss.
The Olarm MAX communicator, monitoring and connectivity services are managed by Olarm as a turnkey, trouble free solution. The app is available in Google Play, App Store and AppGallery.
