The cover on a backside is removeable, under which we have a power button, QR-code, tamper button and a tiny input for the external LED.

Ajax StreetSiren’s front is cold and metal, the body is surrounded by the solid LED frame. The buzzer in there is able to produce noises as loud as 85 to a 113 decibels. UNder a cover there’s power button, QR-code and the external power supply connection terminals.

And due to this StreetSiren’s outdoor status, we have the IP-54 dust and water protection, you won’t find it in this smaller HomeSiren. The Battery parameter is identical for both sensors and is up to 5 years. And usually when you arm or disarm your system you recieve a push notification, telling you the system was armed or disarmed, and after connecting a Siren you will also hear a Sound and see the LED-flashing coming from Siren, reporting that the alarm system’s status has changed.
