In electronic security, brand names can change over time, but strong engineering platforms tend to endure. That is exactly the story behind Radionix. While the name may sound new to some and nostalgic to others, today’s Radionix is not a startup...

The problem: two or more systems, multiple workflows, & one frustrated system user

For years, electronic security projects often landed in “silos.” An access control system. An intrusion panel. Video recording and monitoring. Each system could be...

Alarm communication has come a long way.

For years, traditional alarm panels relied on POTS lines to report signals back to the central station. As networks evolved, IP communication became a more common and efficient path. Today, cellular...

Most people hear “alarm panel” and think intrusion at night or life safety. That’s normal—those are the legacy use cases. But as Steve, Brad, and Tom explain in their discussion of Radionix solutions, panels (and the devices connected to them) have...

Tom Mechler’s core message from his presentation at the 2025 Security Technology Forum was simple: most facilities already own a “sensor network” in their intrusion system, and they can use it for daily safety and operational efficiency, not just...
