Why, Life safety equipments need ” hard wired” connections only, than “internet of things” connectivity in this chatgpt era?
In: 0
Because if it loses connection people die
WiFi reliability has increased but is still not even 99%. 1% down time on life safety equipment is absolutely unacceptable
Especially because it doesn’t matter when everything is going well. It only matters when shit hits the fan and all connectivity starts dropping off. Wired connections will function until physically disconnected.
Consumer use will accept 99% reliability, safety will not. 1% failure rates are completely unacceptable in a safety situation.
Odds of Wireless connection failure at even 99.9% reliability? 1000 in a million
Odds of getting hit by lightning? 3 in a million
Odds of being in a plane crash 0.09 per million
You wouldn’t want to be using anything meant for consumers for safety purposes without triple or quadruple redundancy

Fancy chatbots won’t help your ass not burn up if the fire alarm loses wifi.
> than “internet of things” connectivity
“The S in IoT stands for secure”
Internet of things devices are famously vulnerable to tampering, lose connection often, etc.
Really not what you want out of lifesaving equipment.
