Fire & Security
Netavo provides managed alarm signalling for fire and intruder systems across the UK, through Signal Dynamic, and the connectivity that protected sites depend on. The Signal Dynamic Supervisor replaces signalling that relied on a copper line with up to four paths, each verified continuously.
Signalling after the copper line
The withdrawal of the copper telephone network, and of the signalling services built on it, has left installers and alarm receiving centres needing a replacement that is at least as dependable as the service it succeeds.
Signal Dynamic is Netavo's answer: a managed alarm signalling platform for intruder and fire systems, launched in 2024 and developed with alarm receiving centres and installers. A Supervisor unit at the protected premises sends signals over as many as four paths to a private network, which delivers them to the alarm receiving centre.

How a signal reaches the alarm receiving centre
What we provide for the sector
Alarm signalling is the centre of it. The connectivity around a protected site comes from the same provider.
| Requirement | How we meet it |
|---|---|
| Intruder alarm signalling | The Signal Dynamic Supervisor, designed to single-path and dual-path categories |
| Fire alarm signalling | The same unit and network, for fire detection and alarm systems |
| Replacing signalling that used a copper line | A planned migration, with every path proven before the old line is ceased |
| Delivery to the alarm receiving centre | A private network, connected to the centre's existing alarm management system |
| CCTV and remote sites | Fibre and Ethernet access, and multi-network SIMs with private addressing |
| Resilience for the site connection | Mobile failover alongside fixed access |
Two audiences, one platform
Signal Dynamic is supplied to installers by accredited partner alarm receiving centres, usually together with their monitoring service. Installers fit and commission the Supervisor and have direct access to our technical support. Alarm receiving centres connect to the Signal Dynamic network once and can then receive signals from every site their installers protect.
