A takeover module for the panels nobody makes a dedicated communicator for any more. Rather than interfacing to a specific panel bus, it forwards the signalling from a legacy POTS-based system, which is what makes it work across a much wider range of old hardware than a panel-specific module.
Built for the installer
That matters commercially. There is a long tail of working panels in the field whose manufacturers are gone, whose phone lines are being cancelled, and whose owners do not want to fund a replacement. A universal communicator turns those from lost accounts into recurring revenue without a rip-out.
It supports Wi-Fi alongside the wireless signal path, and carries through to the commercial side of Alarm.com with Enterprise Security Console and Business Activity Analytics support, so a multi-site customer can be brought onto one platform even where the panels differ from site to site.
Key features

System requirements
For legacy POTS-based residential and commercial security systems. Requires an Alarm.com account with a service package supporting the communicator. Commercial features require the relevant Alarm.com for Business service add-ons.
