Product Overview
3G network shutdown is June 2024
The Paradox PCS260E 3G data-only (no voice) communicator enables Paradox alarm panels to send messages to a Base Station Control Room without the need for a PSTN telephone line. The PCS260 delivers communication via GSM to any Base Station that receives Contact ID or via GPRS to Paradox IP Base Station receivers.
This module is simple to install via a four-wire serial connection up to 2m from the alarm panel. The PCS modules provide optional antenna cable extensions to help improve reception, if required.
