3G Shutdown
What It Means And How Your Home Security System Will Be Affected
Cellular carriers have announced they intend to fully “sunset” 3G technologies in the upcoming months. 3G is short for “third-generation wireless technology,” which your system relies on to communicate with the monitoring station.
At the time of your installation 3G was the optimal technology available. As technology advances, cellular carriers phase out/shut down older networks and shift communication to faster, more efficient means of communication.
In order to continue functioning, your panel needs to be updated so that it is compatible with the updated cellular networks. Schedule an onsite panel update to avoid any potential disruptions.
