- Paradox PCS265V7-JQ5 LTE / 4G Cellular Communicator Module (Worldwide Edition) Paradox PCS265V7-JQ5 LTE / 4G Cellular Communicator Module (Worldwide Edition)
- Description
The Paradox PCS265V7-JQ5 is an advanced LTE/4G/3G/2G cellular communication module designed to deliver fast, secure wireless reporting and remote management for Paradox security systems. Compatible with EVOHD+, EVO Series, Spectra SP, and Magellan control panels, it provides primary or backup communication channels to central monitoring stations (CMS) as well as seamless connectivity to end-user mobile apps like BlueEye and Insite Gold.
Engineered with dual nano-SIM card slots, the PCS265V7-JQ5 ensures redundant cellular network switching for uninterrupted system connectivity. It supports high-speed reporting via IP/GPRS protocols (SIA, Contact ID) and enables SMS text notifications for alarms, troubles, and system status updates. Designed specifically for global deployment outside the U.S., this variant operates without an internal backup battery, relying directly on the host panel’s auxiliary power or an external power supply.
