The L5100 has a built-in telephone dialer. The telephone cord easily connects to the "Ring" and "Tip" terminals inside your L5100 Control Panel. However, the system doesn't qualify for Honeywell's Total Connect Service with a telephone connection.
Internet and/or Cellular Communicators are required for Total Connect compatibility. Users can choose from hardwired or wireless internet communicators. Hardwired models, like the iLP5, connect to a router using an Ethernet cable. The L5100-WIFI module can be installed directly onto your control panel, which gives you the ability to then use a wireless internet communicator.
Cellular communicators, like the GSMVLP5-4G, can be installed for wireless communication with your central monitoring station. Traditionally, cellular communicators are more reliable than internet communicators.
