Alarm.com Offers Digital Solutions That Meet Looming FCC Deadline

McLean, VA, November 8, 2007 - The days are numbered for the analog cellular networks upon which many home and business security systems installed throughout the country currently rely. On February 18, 2008, in accordance with a sunset clause established by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in 2002, cellular carriers will be allowed to discontinue their Analog Mobile Phone Service (AMPS) networks, which will render security systems that use analog radios to send alarms inoperable or unreliable unless they are upgraded with newer, digital technology.

Alarm.com, a leading and longtime provider of digital wireless and web-enabled security technology, views the necessary upgrade of analog radios as an opportunity for security dealers to give a face-lift to their current security and monitoring offering. The same Alarm.com digital platform that security dealers are using to upgrade their customers’ outdated AMPS units also supports a suite of web-based remote management and alerting features that enable users to monitor and control their systems 24/7 from any computer, PDA or other internet-connected handheld device. These enhanced features let end users:

• Arm/Disarm their security system remotely via web and PDA interfaces
• View live video and set up event-triggered video recording and alerts
• Track non-alarm activity reported by door, window and motion sensors
• Receive email and text alerts for any type of activity, or prolonged inactivity, reported by the system during user-defined time frames
• Remotely assign user access codes via web
• Turn lights on/off via web, and set up automated light schedules

Alarm.com has been offering its digital wireless security technology since 2003 and has never relied on AMPS networks. The latest versions of Alarm.com signaling products use GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications), the same fast and reliable nationwide network operated by Cingular-AT&T and its partners.

"By replacing analog systems with newer, digital technology like Alarm.com's GSM module, security companies not only ensure that their customers' systems will continue to operate properly after cellular providers turn off the older analog networks," said Steve Trundle, CEO of Alarm.com. "They can also substantially increase the everyday value, appeal, and usability of their current offering with the enhanced web and interactive features that digital technology supports."

Through its nationwide network of over 500 authorized dealers, Alarm.com offers the digital solutions needed to keep security systems fully functional after the AMPS sunset takes effect and to make them more useful to customers than ever before.
