Advantages of wireless home security system over the wired ones

Modern home security systems are available in two basic versions the wired ones and the wireless home security systems. Both the systems have their own advantages and disadvantages but in the present scenario the wireless home security system is gaining more popularity over the wired ones. The advantages of the wireless sets over the wired security systems can be summarized into the following points:

1. In wireless home security system, the components of the alarm system use radio waves to communicate with each other. In the wired security sets, all the components that is the detector, control panel, key pad and the alarm remains connected with wires to receive and send signals to each other.
2. Wireless home security system is easy to install as there is no need for drilling holes or concealing the wires. In case of wired security systems, professional help is required to connect the components and make them as inconspicuous as possible.
3. The components of the wireless home security system can be placed at greater distances from each other and are not limited by boundaries. Since they communicate through radio signals consumers can install the components as per their convenience without hampering the quality of the signals received and sent.
4. The wireless sets are not easy to tamper and remain inconspicuous. The wired sets can be easily damaged as the wires remain visible and need great amount of professional skill to make them remain hidden.
5. Although the wired alarm sets are cheaper than the wireless home security systems but complexity of the wired components make their maintenance cost higher than the wireless sets.
6. The position of the wireless sets can be changed as per convenience but reinstallation of the wired home security systems can be a pain as the wires and connections also need to be reconnected. Moreover because of space constrains it might not always be possible to relocate the wired sets.
7. In case of change of address, the wireless home security systems can be easily dismounted and relocated without the need of professional help.
8. It is easier to connect the wireless home safety system to the control panels of the local law enforcement. This remains a big constrain in case of wired security systems as it is not possible to connect the home alarm with the remote control panel with the help of wires. Even if the connections are made possible, wiring will increase the cost of the alarm system.
