Paradox PCS250-G01 GPRS/GSM Cellular Communicator Module (SWAN Server Support)

The Paradox PCS250-G01 (PCS250) is an official high-speed cellular communication module designed to connect Paradox control panels (EVO, Spectra SP, and Magellan MG) directly to central monitoring stations (CMS) and end-user mobile devices. Supporting GPRS, GSM, and SMS communication, it provides reliable wireless reporting and enables direct remote control via the Insite GOLD / BlueEye mobile app through the Paradox SWAN Server. With dual SIM card redundancy, end-to-end 128-bit AES encryption, and flexible serial bus connectivity, it ensures continuous, uninterrupted security system communications without requiring traditional landlines.
