In this video, Jorge from Alarm Grid explains which Alarm.com Cameras are supported by the 2GIG Edge Security System for its two-way audio streaming feature. In addition to streaming video, a more limited selection of Alarm.com Cameras can also stream audio on a 2GIG Edge Alarm Panel. Pretty much all of the non-outdoor, residential cameras can stream two-way audio. In other words, outdoor camera models and commercial-grade cameras are often incapable of streaming audio on the Edge.

Alarm.com Security Cameras like the ADC-V515 and ADC-V523, as well as monitoring devices like the ADC-V622-WELL can all stream audio with the 2GIG Edge. These cameras not only have built-in speakers, as they also have integrated microphones, thereby making two-way voice possible. You can actually have a live conversation with anyone near the camera. This can be very useful in certain situations. In addition, cameras can not only be streamed from the 2GIG Edge Panel, but they can also be streamed from any 2GIG Edge Remote Keypad devices.

In order to stream audio and video from the 2GIG Edge, the system must be connected to a WIFi network. The 2GIG Edge allows for connectivity with both 2 GHz and 5 GHz WIFI networks. Furthermore, the system must be monitored and connected with the Alarm.com Servers. This is because the cameras are actually connected with Alarm.com. The Edge System uses its built-in Alarm.com Cellular Communicator and its internal WIFI card to communicate with Alarm.com so that it can access the camera feed(s). It really is Alarm.com that makes the entire setup possible.

At the Edge Panel, there are various audio control functions that can be interacted with. The user can choose to mute the audio, or they can initiate two-way audio by activating the microphone function, Remember that this can also be done from the 2GIG Edge Remote Keypad. Functionality is identical across the board between the panel and a 2GIG Edge Remote Keypad.
