Paradox PCS265LTE-6TQ LTE / 4G Dual-SIM Cellular Communicator Module (North America, With Battery)

Product Overview

The Paradox PCS265LTE-6TQ is a high-speed cellular communication module designed specifically for the North American market to deliver fast, primary or backup alarm reporting and remote mobile connectivity for Paradox security systems. Fully compatible with Digiplex EVO, Spectra SP, and Magellan control panels, it enables instant alarm transmission to central monitoring stations (CMS) and continuous access via Paradox mobile applications (BlueEye / Insite Gold).

Equipped with dual Nano-SIM card slots, the PCS265LTE provides cellular network redundancy, automatically switching between carriers (such as AT&T and T-Mobile) to maintain continuous connection. The module supports multi-band LTE / 4G, 3G, and 2G cellular technologies, ensuring full backward compatibility if LTE service fluctuates. Supplied in a battery-equipped configuration, it includes an integrated Li-ion backup battery module that ensures continuous cellular reporting even during main panel power loss or wire-cut sabotage attempts.
