ADT Security offers ADT Monitoring Service to 7 million families and businesses. ADT Central Station network is a multi-tiered emergency platform that monitors for burglary, fire, medical and police emergencies. ADT has multiple Central Stations strategically located throughout the United States and Canada. ADT's Central Station network is prepared for virtually anything including natural disasters and ADT offers what many feel is the best security monitoring in the world.
How does ADT monitoring service work? When an ADT Monitored Security System detects an alarm event it sends a signal to the ADT Central Station network. An ADT Operator thens calls your local police department, fire department or ambulance services depending upon which kind of emergency you are having. The ADT Operator also calls you emergency contacts to let them know what is happening.
It is important to note that the ADT Operator will try to call the premise of where the alarm is going off and your mobile phone before dispatching the police. This helps reduce false alarm calls and gives you the opportunity to decide whether you would like ADT to dispatch the local authorities.
There are four basic types of monitored security that ADT offers which include standard digital monitoring, two-way voice monitoring, cellular monitoring and ADT Pulse Remote Interactive Services. Let take a closer look at each type of monitoring service ADT provides.
ADT Standard Digital Monitoring
This is the traditional monitoring service that has been available for many years. It requires you to have a standard phone line for your ADT monitored alarm panel to send alarm signals to the ADT Central Station network.
Very few of our customers get the standard digital monitoring anymore. Due to the fact that many homeowners are eliminating their home phone service, customer are now purchasing cellular monitoring. Less than 10% of our customer get the standard digital monitoring.

ADT Two-Way Voice Monitoring
ADT often refers to Two-Way Voice monitoring as ADT Voice Connect. This monitoring service is available in combination with standard digital, cellular monitoring systems and ADT Pulse application.
How does ADT Security Two-Way Voice Monitoring work? Two-Way Voice technology provides you with speakerphone connection to ADT when an alarm is received by ADT, allowing for voice communication during an emergency. It also audio verifies a burglary which creates a higher priority emergency, quicker response from local authorities and allows ADT security professionals to voice challenge the intruder.
It also helps reduce false alarms. . It also helps in emergency situations by allowing you to hit the emergency panic buttons on your keypad or your keychain remote and talk to the ADT Central Station Operator "hands free" from anywhere in the home. You can give the ADT Operator important information about the emergency situation so the Operator can then pass the information to the local authorities in route to your home.
