Working with its partners MCM Electronics and Optus, Emizon’s Global 21 provides a direct replacement for Telstra’s Securitel service, following the announcement of the total withdrawal of the technology in 2009. The service meets every class of the new AS/NZS 2201.5:2008 standard, supporting the industry as it adapts into IP easily and securely. It also offers ease of installation, with the one-button push commissioning process popular with installers.

Since the Australasian launch, Global 21 has already proved its worth for residential and business customers across the region, with over 1000 units now in distribution in Australia, and is currently undergoing trials with a number of major banks and corporates. It has also been adopted by a number of Monitoring Centres, with CAGE Security, BENS Wholesale Monitoring, SNP Security, Security Network Australia, RMS Security, joining Central Monitoring Services, and more to go live imminently.

Rob Pennefather, Managing Director of CAGE Security explains his decision to select Emizon, “Being an installer and a monitoring service provider we had to be very careful with the product we chose as a Securitel replacement. We carefully surveyed the market and determined that the Emizon dual-path IP monitoring solution was the most cost effective and simple to install product.�?

With Telstra’s announcement to cease the Securitel service there has been some uncertainty in the market, which offers the perfect opportunity to provide a service, already well-proven in other parts of the world. Many of the current offerings are GPRS only with intrinsic reliability issues; Emizon’s Global 21, however, is managed on both wired and wireless paths giving unrivalled resilience.

“Emizon’s Global 21, combined with the skill and expertise of its manufacturing partners is the perfect replacement for Securitel and other communications methods,�? says Geoff Girdler, CEO of Emizon Group.

The product is backed with a 24-hour helpdesk, and full support from industry panel leader MCM Electronics for the hardware. The innovative technology is able to provide Contact ID and MCM Securitel (SIP) protocol, with software that can be updated at the touch of a button.
