The Hub is essential for every security system. All sensors, panels, and other equipment will communicate with the Hub via wireless connections. Likewise, the Hub functions as a connection between your security system and our monitoring station.

Your system will default to the 4G LTE cellular backup network to connect with our monitoring station at all times.

However, if you do not have the ability to connect to your home internet router, you may skip steps 1 and 2 and simply plug your Hub into an AC outlet.

TO INSTALL YOUR HUB

We recommend using your home internet router.

  1.  Locate your internet modem or router and the nearest electrical outlet to your router.
  2. Use the included ethernet cable to connect the ethernet port (located on the side of the Hub) to any open ethernet port on your internet modem or router. Do NOT unplug the ethernet cable that connects your router to your modem.

Please note: If your home has multiple active ethernet ports, you may also plug the Hub into any of your active ethernet ports instead of your modem or router.
