Seconds count in an emergency situation to save lives and assets. ELK Products announces the release of the C1M1 Dual Path Communicator. C1M1 significantly reduces transmission time of emergency messages. It does not require dial capture or data bus decoding which leads to delays with other communicators. In addition, there is no cloud server to compromise or delay the communications.

C1M1 provides super-fast, full data communications to Central Monitoring Stations over IP and cellular pathways. Transmissions are automatically directed over the best pathway for quickest communications. Periodic tests are sent over both pathways to ensure reliable communications and C1M1 can automatically report a pathway outage over the remaining pathway.

C1M1 also supports remote access with no port forwarding or extra fees. Installers can easily activate and manage C1M1 communicators, as well as remotely program the M1 control over the IP or cellular pathway. Consumers can control the M1 remotely via the free ElkLink mobile app and web portal, as well as eKeypad and M1 Touch Pro third party apps. Additional features include email/text notifications for arm, disarm, and alarm events, as well as support for ELK’s IP based software and interface partners.

The ELK-C1M14GSM supports GSM networks and is available through all ELK Authorized Distributors. The ELK-C1M1CDMA, which supports CDMA networks, is soon to follow.
