Buy Inexpensive W-Box Wireless Security Products (319, 345 and 433 MHz)

Sleek and stylish, the W Box Technologies wireless mini door/window contacts and wireless pet-immune motion detectors are manufactured with 319 MHz, 345 MHz, or 433 MHz wireless frequency.

W Box wireless door and window alarm contacts are used as part of a security system to help protect a home or business. They are small devices that are typically installed on doors and windows. When the door or window is closed, the two parts of the contact are together, creating a circuit. When the door or window is opened, the circuit is broken, and the alarm system is triggered. This sends a signal to the control panel, which can then alert the homeowner or security company. These devices are wireless, meaning they don’t require any physical connection to the control panel, making them easier to install and less intrusive. They can be particularly useful in helping to detect unauthorized entry or potential break-ins.

W Box wireless motion detectors are used to detect movement within a certain area. They are typically part of a security system and are used to alert the system when unexpected motion is detected. This could be in a home, office, or any other space that requires security. The detectors work by using infrared technology to sense movement and heat, so if an intruder were to pass by the detector, it would sense the movement and heat of the person and trigger the alarm.

Not only are W Box products inexpensive, they are compatible with most existing 2GIG, Honeywell, DSC, GE, ITI, and Qolsys wireless security systems. With exceptional range and over five years of battery life, powered by a lithium battery, these security products are designed for low maintenance.
