DigiPlus is designed to guarantee legacy Digis will work with the new BT 21CN Network and other Next Generation Networks.
DigiPlus is a joint venture between mobile communications giant Vodafone and CSL DualCom.
Claire Poyser-Blair of EMCS said: “This is a great opportunity for our installers to offer a robust solution to both the 21CN issue and offer cost savings to their customers.
“CSL have again listened to the market and delivered a cost effective solution that benefits all stakeholders”.
CSL’s commercial director, Simon Banks, said: “We have priced DigiPlus to meet the needs of the end user, ARC and installer and will be working with the UK insurers to provide 21CN compliance certificates with each product connected.”
CSL says DigiPlus is supplied free of charge with a small monthly charge added to the Digi monitoring, and allows the installer to prepare for potential Next Generation Network issues.
DigiPlus re-routes the existing Digi on site via a 0800 freefone number to cancel call charges. There is also the option to amend the Digi programming remotely, saving a site visit.
All DigiPlus units can be transferred from ARC to ARC in a volume transfer without the need for costly chip changes.
