Alarm.com | Dual-Path Commercial Fire Communicator with AT&T + Verizon Auto-Select, 10-Pack | ADC-FC100-T10-AT-VZ-D

A UL Listed, NFPA 72 fire communicator that carries two carriers in one box. Both an AT&T and a Verizon nano SIM ship pre-installed and pre-activated, so the coverage question at a given address gets answered on site rather than by ordering the wrong carrier and waiting for a replacement.

Built for the commercial fire installer

Four reporting configurations are supported from the same hardware: dual path over LTE and Ethernet, dual cell over two LTE carriers, single path Ethernet, or single path cellular. Dual cell is the one worth knowing about, because it satisfies a two-path requirement at a site where there is no usable network drop and no willingness to share the customer's LAN.

The board carries four supervised inputs, three relay outputs and an open-collector output, and speaks ContactID and SIA. Run it at 24 VDC where possible, which drops the current draw to 160 mA against 230 mA at 12 VDC. Two LTE antennas, the plastic enclosure and a mounting bracket are in the box.

Note this part number is the 10-pack for distribution, not a single communicator.

Key features

• Both carriers pre-installed and pre-activated, so coverage is resolved on site not by reordering
• Dual cell mode satisfies two-path requirements where no usable network drop exists
• UL Listed and NFPA 72 for commercial fire applications
• Four supervised inputs and four outputs for panel interfacing without add-on boards
• ContactID and SIA for compatibility with existing central station receivers
• Lower draw at 24 VDC, 160 mA against 230 mA at 12 VDC

System requirements

Requires 12-28 VDC (24 VDC recommended) from the fire panel, and an Ethernet connection for paths that use it. Supplied as a 10-pack. Installation must comply with NFPA 72 and local fire and electrical codes.
