Monitoring Options
One of Protect America's strengths is their breadth of monitoring options
Broadband Monitoring
Communicate with Protect America's monitoring center via your broadband connection. By purchasing a system upgrade you can utilize your broadband connection. This is very valuable with the number of people who have given up their landlines.
Cell Phone / Cellular Monitoring
This GSM based system has a GSM Cell device built into your alarm controls. Ideal for consumers without landlines or broadband connections. Also works for homeowners concerned about their phone line being cut.
Standard Phone-line/Landline Monitoring
POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) is the most common form of monitoring chosen and uses your landline.
