Ring Alarm Range Extender is a wireless repeater for the Ring Alarm system which helps to improve the range and reliability of the Ring Alarm network by listening for and repeating network communication between the Ring Alarm Base Station and other Ring Alarm end devices. After installing the Range Extender and setting up the Range Extender in the Ring app, the devices added to Ring Alarm’s network can utilize the Range Extender’s routing and repeating to communicate effectively with the Base Station. The Ring Alarm Base Station is required to enable Range Extender features and functions within the Ring app.
