EKHO operates in the 916 MHz range, which is mostly free of any consumer electronics. Even if a different device was working on the same frequency as EKHO, the system can automatically switch to a different channel and continue operating normally. EKHO uses well-proven wireless technology and an orthogonal antenna design to ensure the highest levels of life safety, system reliability and security. All data packages are encrypted under the AES-128 standard, which protects the communication platform from hacks and malicious attacks. The wiring in an addressable and conventional fire system can act an antenna for all types of electromagnetic interference. These signals can reach the very sensitive photodiodes and cause the detector to generate a false alarm. However, the impact of interference depends on the length of the electrical conductor. The length of an exposed conductor in a wireless device is the very short antenna and the impact of the interference will be negligible.
