In this case, be sure to take into account that network parameters, the installation area, the ability of the camera to capture even those elements that are located far away are available for the sensors. The latter option is relevant for GSM alarms with a video camera.

About the installation site of the alarm: it should not be an open area where such a camera can be easily seen. It is better to install the alarm in an inconspicuous place so that the attacker does not pay attention to it. It is also worth considering the possibility of capturing an object from a long distance.

It is worth noting that there are wired and wireless GSM alarms for a house, a summer residence, a garage, let's compare them.

• By the parameter of volatility it can be noted that the wireless versions have their own power supplies, that is, they can work autonomously. Wired models are autonomous only if you purchase a special uninterruptible power supply unit. It should always be purchased separately, which will incur additional costs.
• The use cases are also different. Wired signaling is considered to be simple. All of its components are less affected by the environment, for example, the same weather. Wireless options operate at radio frequency. Moreover, more modern models pre-encrypt the signal. This helps smooth operation and makes it difficult for an intruder to intentionally jam the signal, but there is the possibility of false positives.

• It happens that the GSM system breaks downso it is easier to repair the wired options. However, the repair has its own nuances, so this indicator can be assessed as equivalent for both types of alarms.

GSM signaling requires basic knowledge of electronics, tools to work with parts. You need to take an old telephone, a magnet with a reed switch, a switch, a conductor, and mounting parts. You need to modify your phone to be able to make a call with one button, so you need to set up a quick call. The conductors connected to the external switch must be brought to the functional board.
