Signalink is a Canadian company founded in 1999 and, according to the company, is North America’s only manufacturer of UL/ULC listed, wire-free, fire alarm notification and audibility upgrade systems featuring power line communications. Signalink’s platform is designed to provide building owners with a cost-effective alternative to audibility retrofit and modernize their facility’s control infrastructure. The first product line, called Fire-Link®, is a fire signaling system targeting high-rise and multi-unit residential buildings (MURBs).
Signalink’s Fire-Link II system utilizes technology that communicates through the building’s existing AC electrical wires, minimizing installation labor and upgrading costs generally associated with a fire alarm audibility upgrade.
