With the countdown to the 2G Sunset started, Telguard, a division of Telular Corporation, released its TG-KIT, which is used to upgrade all 2G (GSM and GPRS) Telguard TG-7 series communicators to 3G/4G solutions without having to remove the existing enclosure, antenna or power supply
The Upgrade Incentive Program rewards dealers with up to $25 when they replace any manufacturer’s (including Telguard’s) installed 2G cellular alarm communicator with one of Telguard’s solutions for 3G/4G networks.
In response to consumer demand for faster speeds and greater bandwidth, national cell carriers in early 2011 revealed their plans to migrate fully from 2G to 3G mobile telecommunications. The implication is that the phasing out of 2G–GSM technologies has begun. This forthcoming “2G Sunset,” during which GSM and GPRS technologies will be rendered obsolete, will have sweeping implications for our industry.
Digimerge Technologies’ DH230 Touch series of high-performance DVRs has advanced features such as Smart Search, drive mirroring, real-time recording, and 3G mobile/tablet and Mac compatibility.
