How QuietCare Works
The following diagram demonstrates how QuietCare components are placed and how they work together to
monitor, collect, and respond to resident activity. Note that item 3 shows sensors relaying activity data to a
base station or router. If you are using an analog (POTS) line, QuietCare — Dial-Up sensors relay data to a
base station; if you are using a broadband connection, QuietCare — Networked sensors relay data to a router.
For more information about the two types of systems, see QuietCare — Networked versus QuietCare — Dial-
Up Systems.
QuietCare — Networked versus QuietCare — Dial-Up Systems
QuietCare is available for broadband and dial-up (POTS) connections; the system components vary based on
the connection type you use. This section provides a quick overview of the two systems. Both systems collect
and report the same motion data; however, system alerts might vary and will be noted as such in this manual.
