Scantronic COM-DATA-4G-SD: Plug-On Communicator for Data, 4G/2G, Cloud, ARC, SMS, Speech

Full Description

Dedicated 4G Connectivity with Comprehensive Communication Features

The Scantronic COM-DATA-4G-SD is the ideal solution for professional installers seeking reliable, cellular-only communication for their Eaton security systems. This module is critical for remote sites, locations with poor IT infrastructure, or installations requiring an entirely separate communication path from the customer’s IP network.

By leveraging multi-band 4G/2G technology, the COM-DATA-4G-SD ensures fast, consistent reporting to the Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC) and connects the panel to the SecureConnect cloud, enabling full remote management via the mobile app.

Advanced Communication Capabilities (SD) The COM-DATA-4G-SD distinguishes itself by retaining key legacy functions often required for specific commercial applications. It offers built-in support for:

• Speech Messaging: Allowing pre-recorded audible notifications.
• SMS Messaging: For sending basic alerts directly to user phones.
• ARC Reporting: Via established protocols over the cellular path.

This feature set makes it a flexible, forward-thinking replacement for outdated PSTN diallers, ensuring all communication needs, from modern app control to essential voice alerts, are covered by a single, reliable module.

Trade Assurance and Compliance Like all professional Scantronic communicators, this module is rated to EN 50131 Grade 2 and achieves ATS SP2. Its compact plug-on design simplifies installation, requiring only a SIM card to activate the communication path. Trust Smart R Distribution for genuine Eaton components and expert technical support.

FAQs

Is the COM-DATA-4G-SD a dual-path communicator? No, this module provides a single, dedicated cellular path (4G/2G). If you require dual-path redundancy (Wi-Fi + 4G), please select the COM-DATA-4G-WIFI module.

Does this communicator require an external telephone line? No, the COM-DATA-4G-SD uses the cellular network (4G/2G) for all communication, including ARC signalling and Speech/SMS messages, making a physical PSTN line unnecessary.

Do I need an external antenna for this module? For optimal 4G signal strength, especially when the panel is installed in a metal enclosure or low-signal area, we strongly recommend using the Scantronic COM-ANT-01 External GSM Antenna.
