2GIG EDGE™ Security & Smart Home System
The 2GIG EDGE™ is a sleek 7″ all-in-one system that brings on-panel Face Recognition Disarm, Bluetooth disarm, dual-path LTE + Wi-Fi, and Z-Wave 700-series smart-home control together—plus live view for up to 8 Alarm.com cameras (4 at once), all processed with on-device analytics for privacy.
Why Choose This with Smart Shield Systems
- Private, touchless entry: we enroll Face Recognition Disarm (processed on the panel) and set up Bluetooth disarming for hands-free arrivals.
- Keep your existing sensors: we migrate 2GIG 345 MHz, 2GIG eSeries (encrypted), and many Honeywell 5800 sensors to the EDGE and verify every zone.
- Stronger automations: we connect lights, locks, thermostats, and scenes via Z-Wave Plus V2 (700-series) and train your household on the new UI.
- Pro commissioning: we configure Smart Areas (partitions), test video live view, and enable reliable dual-path reporting to Alarm.com.
