They include the rise of VoIP, the demise of plain old telephone services (POTS) and the technology standards obsolescence with cellular communications. The VoIP-TAP is designed to enroll seamlessly to the AES-IntelliNet mesh alarm communications networks.
The AES 7090 VoIP-TAP product represents the latest version of the AES 7067 IntelliTap Full Data Module. The AES 7090 VoIP-TAP provides for dual-communication via the Internet and AES-IntelliNet mesh radio. The VOIP-TAP sends full data to be received by the AES Central Receivers and incorporates all current functions and capabilities of the AES 7067 IntelliTap. In addition, the new VoIP-TAP data module allows the AES-IntelliNets MultiNet system to communicate directly with the digital dialer communicator within the alarm panel and takes advantage of existing broadband connection within the alarm communications subscribers.
The added features and functions are in response to problems the security industry has faced and is facing now including, alarm panel incompatibility with Voice-Over IP networks, the unavailability of telephone lines in the protected premise and avoiding the disruptions and costs encountered when cellular technology standards change as recently experienced with the AMPS issue. "These problems are potentially the largest threat to the security industry that it has seen in the last decade. Our new VoIP-TAP product provides a solution to the eventual loss of plain old telephone service (POTS) and provides a back up for cellular failures," said Michael Sherman, President and CEO of AES Corporation.
The AES-IntelliNets alarm system is a self healing, long range wireless mesh radio communication network and works in conjunction with the Internet to provide customers the ability to monitor alarms in multiple regions from one location, without recurring monthly communications costs or infrastructure fees typically associated with remote monitoring. The AES-IntelliNet mesh network also offers a more reliable, faster means of communicating alarm signals to central monitoring stations without relying on telephone lines or cellular services that are vulnerable to line cuts, weather conditions, radio jamming, and recurring monthly costs.
