What Sensors Are Compatible With the 2GIG GC Touch?

The 2GIG GC Touch panel supports a wide range of wireless security sensors, which makes it easy for users to build a complete system for home or business protection. This FAQ explains the types of sensors it can use and what you can expect. This helps you choose devices for a reliable setup.

The 2GIG GC Touch is designed to work with sensors in the 2GIG security ecosystem, which includes two main categories of wireless devices. First, it supports 345 MHz sensors. These include the long standing 2GIG 345 line along with many Honeywell legacy 5800-series wireless devices that operate on the same frequency.

Together these sensors cover common needs such as door and window monitoring, motion detection, glass break detection, and environmental alerts. They are widely used in residential and light commercial environments, so users who are upgrading from older 2GIG panels can usually bring their existing sensors to the new system without issues.

The second major category includes 2GIG eSeries encrypted sensors. These devices communicate at 345MHz but also use advanced encryption to protect against wireless interference and spoofing attempts. If a user wants an added level of security or is working in a sensitive environment, eSeries sensors offer stronger data protection and a more secure experience. The GC Touch fully supports these sensors, making it easy to build an encrypted setup from the ground up.

The data sheet also confirms compatibility with 2GIG 345S sensors. These are new 345 MHz sensors that offer the unique ability to operate with or without encryption based on a switch setting on the sensor. They're part of a new modern lineup of sensors, including motion sensors, glass break detectors, smoke detectors, and more. The sensor family also features convenient options such as key fobs and wireless keypads that allow users to control the system from different locations in the home or office.

Together these sensor categories give users impressive flexibility. Whether you want to bring over existing devices, add encrypted protection, or expand a system with new choices from the 345S line, the GC Touch panel is equipped to support a complete and dependable security network.
