What is Redcare?
Firstly Redcare is a BT product which combines a secure redcare
landline connection with a GSM radio backup path. In the event of a line cut
redcare enables the alarm system to be monitored by radio path.
If line failure occurs the Alarm Receiving Station is informed, but the GSM
Radio path will continue to communicate sending out any subsequent alarm
signals.
A BT Redcare GSM alarm is capable of sending out a confirmed activation signal if
either the primary landline or secondary radio path is lost, regardless of which
one is lost first
Redcare offers the most secure form of alarm monitoring available. The
service provides continuous monitoring of a BT telephone line that links your
ITS Securities installed alarm system to the Alarm Receiving Centre.
The result is continuous protection of our customers property, every second of
the day, 365 days a year.
Unlike other alarm monitoring services, redcare both alerts the the Alarm
Receiving Centre when it detects a line cut AND provides encryption to prevent
the substitution of equipment ‘spoofing’ (emulation) of line conditions. This is
why redcare is the most secure system of its kind.
