Realizing that not everyone has a landline these days, X10.com has modified a number of home security system kits that operate on GSM basis, or by use of a cell phone SIM card. Like all X10 systems, these GSM systems are DIY-friendly, allowing you to quickly and easily install your own system without having to pay hefty installation fees. Since there are no monthly fees associated with X10 security systems, all you need to pay for is your security kit, as well as your cell phone bill! Simply choose the cell phone carrier of your choice, insert the SIM card into the SC1200-GSM X10 Cellular SecuriLINK Security Console with GSM, and you’ll be ready to roll!
The first step is, of course, deciding on your system components. If you have trouble making decisions, don’t worry; any X10 systems are fully expandable, so you can quickly and easily add or subtract items from your original system.
