4550-CB
INTRODUCTION
Uplink’s MODEL 4550-CB GSM Alarm Communicator is a UL Listed alarm and
critical event communicator designed to interface with most manufacturers’ alarm
panels that incorporate a digital telephone dialer. The 4550-CB features a “dialer
capture” interface to the alarm panel. If the alarm panel’s TELCO connection is
compromised, or if no TELCO connection is present, the 4550-CB will “intercept”
the alarm panel’s digital dialer output when the panel has an event to report, and
communicate with the panel as if it were a central station alarm receiver. Once the
4550-CB communicates with the alarm panel, it transmits the alarm information to
the central station receiver in Contact ID (SIA-DC05), SIA (SIA-DC03), Pulse 4+2,
DMP or Modem IIe/IIIa/IIIa
2
formats.
The 4550-CB uses GSM technology to receive programming and send event
information to the central station and can be used as the primary or backup
communications path as a digital dialer (or DACT).
