Smart Shield Systems
Supervised Wireless PowerG Indoor Siren
The DSC PowerG Indoor Siren is a fully supervised, 2-way wireless sounder with a built-in strobe, double (front + back) tamper, and on-device link-quality LEDs so placement is quick and reliable. It supports distinct tones for burglary, fire, CO/gas, and flood events, plus optional entry/exit beeps and arm/disarm squawks. Typical battery life is up to 8 years.
Why Choose This with Smart Shield Systems
- Fast, tidy installs: we use the siren’s LED signal test to lock in a GOOD/STRONG PowerG link before we mount it.
- Proper event tones & strobe: we enable the right audible patterns and visual flash for each alarm type, per your panel and local code.
- Pro integration: we enroll to your PowerG-capable system (e.g., IQ Panel / DSC Neo/Pro) and verify entry/exit beeps and arming squawks behave the way you want.
