Q: Do I need professional monitoring for my business?

Every Ajax system includes real-time self-monitoring through the app at no monthly cost — push alerts, photo verification, and remote arm/disarm. For round-the-clock coverage, Advanced Monitoring ($44.99/month) adds 24/7 central station monitoring with verified dispatch — better suited to businesses with high-value inventory, multiple locations, or owners who travel frequently. It's month-to-month with no long-term contract, and you own the hardware.

Q: What makes Ajax different from the alarm system we already have?

Most commercial alarm systems detect and alert — that's it. Ajax adds photo verification via MotionCam, so you know within seconds whether an alarm is real. The Jeweller wireless protocol uses AES-128 encryption with frequency hopping and anti-jamming, making it significantly harder to defeat than traditional wired or wireless systems. And everything — intrusion, cameras, fire sensors, and intercoms — runs in a single app instead of separate platforms.

Q: Can multiple staff members access the system?

Yes. Ajax supports multi-user access with different permission levels. Owners have full control, managers can arm/disarm and receive alerts, and you can issue temporary access codes for cleaning crews or vendors. For physical access control, Akuvox intercoms support individual RFID credentials, PIN codes, face recognition, and time-limited QR codes — all with a complete audit log.

Q: What happens if our internet goes down?

The Ajax Hub Hybrid 2 communicates over Ethernet, WiFi, and dual SIM cellular simultaneously. If your internet fails, the hub automatically falls back to cellular — sensors keep reporting, alerts keep sending, and central station monitoring (if subscribed) continues without interruption. This is a key advantage over systems that go dark the moment your router goes offline.

Q: Is there a long-term contract?

No. Advanced Monitoring is month-to-month. The hardware you purchase is yours — there's no equipment rental or lock-in. You can start, pause, or cancel monitoring at any time.

Q: What areas do you serve for commercial security installation?

We serve Tacoma, Puyallup, Gig Harbor, University Place, Bonney Lake, and the greater South Sound region of Washington State. If your business is in Pierce County or the surrounding area, contact us and we'll confirm coverage.

Ajax Verified Response

Photo Verified in Seconds.
Not Hours.

When a MotionCam sensor triggers after hours, here's exactly what happens — from the first detection to police on the way. Verified alarm, real threat, priority dispatch. No guessing, no false-alarm fines.

Ajax Hub Hybrid 2 mounted in a commercial office, the control center of a Rivas Technology Group business security system

STEP 01 T + 0s

Motion Detected

A MotionCam sensor picks up movement at the back door after hours. Its infrared sensor confirms a human-sized heat signature and signals the hub instantly.

STEP 02 T + 7s

Photo Burst to Your Phone

The camera captures a photo burst and pushes it to your phone in about seven seconds — so you see exactly what tripped the alarm before anyone makes a call.

STEP 03 cellular

Hub Switches to Cellular

If the internet is cut, the Hub falls back to dual-SIM LTE automatically. Reporting never stops — cutting the line does nothing.

STEP 04 central station

Verified Alarm Confirmed

With Advanced Monitoring, trained operators review the verified event and confirm it's a real intrusion — not a delivery driver at the wrong door.

STEP 05 < 14s

Police Dispatched — Priority

Because the alarm is photo-verified, it earns priority police dispatch — the fastest response a commercial alarm can get.

Why It Matters

Your Current System Probably Has Gaps You Don't Know About

Most commercial alarm systems were designed to make noise. Ajax was designed to give you verified proof — so when something happens, you know exactly what it is.

The Problem with Basic Commercial Alarms

✕ Sirens go off — police are dispatched — it's a delivery driver at the wrong door. Again.

✕ Wired systems are expensive to run, easy to cut, and even easier to defeat by pulling the panel

✕ No photo or video tied to the alarm — you find out the next morning by walking in

✕ Repeated false alarm fines from the city and deprioritized police response

✕ Insurance claims stall without verified documentation of what actually happened

The Ajax Advantage for Business

✓ MotionCam sends a photo burst to your phone within seconds — you see what triggered the alarm before calling anyone

✓ Wireless Jeweller protocol with AES-128 encryption, frequency hopping, and anti-jamming — cutting cables does nothing

✓ Verified alarms get priority police dispatch — photo confirmation means faster response

✓ Cellular backup — your system keeps reporting even if internet or power goes down

✓ AI detection distinguishes people from animals and shadows — significantly fewer false triggers

The Two Pillars

Intrusion Protection + Video Surveillance. Both. Together.

Most commercial security systems do one or the other well. Ajax integrates both into a single ecosystem — same app, same hub, same alert stream.

Pillar One

Intrusion Protection

Ajax's Hub Hybrid 2 supports up to 200 devices over the Jeweller wireless protocol — encrypted, frequency-hopping, and designed to resist jamming and interference. Every sensor reports in real time. MotionCam delivers photo-verified alerts within seconds of detecting motion inside your space.

Hub Hybrid 2 — Ethernet, WiFi, and dual SIM cellular backup for always-on connectivity

MotionCam (PhOD) — photo burst sent to your phone the moment motion is detected

DoorProtect & GlassProtect — instant tamper and break detection at every entry point

Outdoor perimeter sensors — detect intrusion at the property line, not just the door

Keypads and key fobs for staff — arm and disarm at the door without a phone

Multi-user access — assign different permissions to owners, managers, and staff

Shop Intrusion Protection →

Pillar Two

AI-Powered Surveillance

Ajax cameras integrate natively with the same hub and app running your intrusion system. AI object detection identifies people and vehicles — not reflections, not animals — and triggers recordings and alerts only when they matter.

BulletCam and TurretCam — 3K and 4K resolution with AI detection for people and vehicles

Hybrid illumination — full-color night footage with IR + white light switching

NVR with PoE — up to 16 cameras on a single recorder with dual redundant hard drives

Event-triggered recording — cameras respond to intrusion sensors, not just motion zones

Ajax Cloud Storage — secure off-site video retention accessible from any device

Ajax DoorBell — video doorbell with AI and PIR sensor for business entrances
