WebWay launch Nano 3G

WebWay’s Pro and Mini range of signalling devices are designed for the Enterprise and Business markets, so they are excited to announce the launch of WebWay Nano, their wire free signalling device for UDL and alarm signalling for home and low risk solutions. Nano is engineered for engineers. Easy to install, reliable, powerful and future proofed.

When installing a third party signalling device in a Grade 2 intruder or fire panel, size is everything. WebWay Nano is just W72 x L113 x H16 (including plastic mounting base) draws 55mA and requires only a three wire connection to leading alarm panels for UDL and SIA.

New product, same WebWay architecture

Nano has the same display and buttons as the existing Pro and Mini platforms. Engineers can replay the configuration, see signal strength and all other parameters and diagnostics. Of course engineers can order, manage, configure and diagnose any Nano using WebWay’s free mobile optimised internet service WebWay World.

First time installation using secure, fast and reliable communications are at the heart of the Nano. After being the first signalling manufacturer to upgrade to 3G transmission on their devices, WebWay have made another breakthrough in wireless technology and replaced the traditional SIM with an eSIM on the new Nano. eSIM is a SIM within a microchip which improves manufacturing, streamlines administration and adds security to the solution. WebWay eSIM is registered to all 3G, EDGE and GPRS networks and automatically selects the best available service.

WebWay’s MD Chris Carter Brennan says ‘its a really small platform but a really powerful device for switching analogue systems to digital and benefiting from sure communications and remote service over 3G.‘

Great connections

WebWay have great connections with all the leading alarm panel manufacturers. They’ve integrated the Contact ID, SIA, UDL and ARM protocols of Castle CareTech, Cooper, DSC, HKC, Honeywell, Pyronix, Risco and Texecom. Nano has individual RS232, RS485 and TTL connections on board. 3 wires and no need for additional comms modules and you have a high speed, radio only secure signalling system.

Remotely upgrading devices is critical to risk management. During the remote upgrade process any signalling device will need to reboot, which can result in the alarm panel indicating a missing modules. WebWay Nano (Mini’s and Pro’s) support their unique Coast Through function meaning you can upgrade and reboot quickly, with no end user interruption. Every Nano has 8 inputs and 2 outputs which can operate in parallel with the serial bus connection. Using WebWay Remote Pins you can add another 32 channels and 12 outputs for fridges, fire and more.
