Telular Announces Half a Million Households and Businesses Now Wirelessly Protected with Telguard®
Wed Oct 28, 8:20 AMCHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Telular Corporation (NASDAQ: WRLS), a leader in wireless communications technology, announced today that it has reached an industry milestone of half a million households and businesses now using Telguard Digital cellular alarm solutions to protect their families, property, and assets. Telular’s market-leading portfolio of UL-listed solutions enables security dealers to provide primary and backup wireless alarm communication solutions for residential and commercial customers over the nationwide cellular network.
“We are extremely pleased that a Monitronics Authorized dealer installed Telular’s 500,000th cellular system,” said Mitch Clarke, vice president of marketing and business development at Monitronics. “We look forward to continuing to build on our successful relationship with Telular and reach the next half a million installations.”
Telguard Digital solutions are designed in response to dealer requirements for systems that reduce installation costs and boost recurring monthly revenue (RMR). As a result, Telguard solutions are easy to install, quick to activate, and compatible with the widest range of alarm panels on the market today.
Telguard Digital solutions transmit alarm signals over the air if the telephone line has been disrupted, compromised, or when no wireline service is available from virtually all security and fire systems to central stations. Additionally, Telular’s Telguard Online account management system simplifies activations. With multi-level user authorization, security dealers can register, configure, and view subscriber activity for 24/7 comprehensive account management.
“We are very pleased with the rapid adoption of Telguard Digital technology since its introduction only a few years ago. This major milestone further signifies the growth of cellular in the security industry,” said Joe Beatty, president and CEO of Telular. “Through our strong commitment to quality and support, we will continue to offer time-tested solutions to enable security dealers to serve today’s cost-conscious residential and commercial customers.”
