Comparison Table of TRIKDIS Communicators for Alarm Systems

• 01.04.2025

If you're unsure which Trikdis communicator suits your needs and what its capabilities are, we've prepared a concise comparison table where you can easily overview the Trikdis communicators based on two key criteria:

1. Horizontal axis: how it connects to the alarm control panel
2. Vertical axis: what communication channels it offers

(The table does not include communicators used for fire alarm systems or devices operating via radio communication.)

Types of connection to the alarm control panel

• Special communicator – Direct connection to the alarm panel via data bus or serial port.
• Universal communicator – Connection to the alarm panel via traditional telephone line (TIP-RING).
• Dual-connection communicator – The device supports both data bus/serial port and telephone line (TIP-RING) connections. A distinguishing feature of these devices is their black casing.

Types of communication

• Cellular – Depending on the built-in modem, the device may support 2G, 3G, or 4G. All devices are backward compatible, meaning a 4G communicator can also operate on 3G or 2G/GPRS networks.
• Ethernet – The device connects to the network via an Ethernet (LAN) cable, typically using a wired internet connection.
• Dual-path, Redundant – The device supports both Ethernet and cellular connections. This ensures high bandwidth through wired internet, while also providing a backup connection via mobile network in case of power outage or service failure.
