The installation is simple and non site specific , meaning engineers can carry the unit in their stock. The Emizon website offers a comprehensive guide to installation techniques and what will be involved.
Why would we want to change from traditional monitoring methods?
Digicoms are being routinely replaced now as this old technology is vulnerable to line cuts and changes to the BT network. A customer with a large number of sites will see significant savings on their monitoring costs if they chose to use Emizon over some of their more famous competitors.
New markets and opportunities for Emizon.
The most important opportunities lie in the CCTV monitoring field where the use of broadband lines is becoming the most popular way of transmitting CCTV alarms to a central station.
