What is a Blue Tooth Home Security System?

By: Sandra Wilson

Over the last few years there has been a surge in the number of wireless burglar alarm systems. Many of these are thanks to the security systems companies that are now carrying the blue tooth home security system. We will overview just what the bluetooth technology provides us and the benefits we get from having these systems in our homes.

First off, the bluetooth technology offers us speed with these systems over the traditional wired systems. The data can be transmitted more rapidly through the use of short range radio frequencies. Once the alarm is triggered, the monitoring service you have watching out for your home burglar alarm system will quickly get the information and be able to pass it on more quickly as well.

Because of its design Bluetooth is able to synchronize and then transfer the data it is collecting to various different devices. Although it was first used in order to allow a person to synchronize information contained on their palmtop PC with their desktop or laptop without the use of wires. Today it is becoming an important part of home security systems as well. Simply because there are no wires so nothing for the burglar to be able to cut to hopefully stop the system from working.

Security of the data that is sent from your home to the monitoring service is another point in favor of a bluetooth home security system versus the traditional ones. Before the information is sent from the control panel in your home via the system, it is encrypted. It must be unencrypted on the receiving end after authentication thus providing the additional security.

Yet another security measure by the blue tooth home security system is the number of differing frequencies that are used. Only a receiver that is matched up to your particular transmitter should be able to get the data transmitted from your home and therefore only the people with access to that matched up receiver.

What's more, you will find that this security system will cost less than a more conventional wired system simply due to the less amount of work which will need to be done. A wired system requires those wires be run and probably means holes being put into your house all over to run those wires. You just might even consider a do it yourself security system installation.

Now if you do want to go ahead with a diy install, read and understand thoroughly the documents that come with the system from the manufacturer. You will have to plan out your components installation sites so they will be in the right places to provide the best coverage before you actually start installing.

But one of the biggest advantages to be gained from using a blue tooth home security system is that you can actually control the system even when you are away from home. All you need to do is set up the system on your laptop or PC at work and then you can disarm, arm and carry out other tasks on your alarm system without actually having to be there in person. So if on your way to work and you suddenly remember that you have forgotten to arm the alarm, by quickly entering in to the program on your laptop or PC you will be able to do so.
