What happens if my phone lines are cut? Does the central station still receive the alarm signals?
If your phone lines are cut, the siren and your alarm will function providing the system is armed and specific zones are not bypassed. However, the system may not communicate to the central station, notifying us that you have a problem. We do offer ‘Backup Cell Monitoring Services’ which require us to install a device that is a backup to the phone line for reporting purposes. Many systems have radio or cellular for backup.
