Vivint Smart Hub: The Most Advanced Smart Home Security Hub Available

Imagine you’re in bed, comfortable and drifting off to sleep, when you start to wonder if you locked the back door. Or what if your elderly parent who lives with you falls and you need to call 911, but you can’t find your phone? Maybe you’re alone and the doorbell rings, but you’re not expecting anyone.

Experiences like this can range from frustrating to downright scary—unless you have a smart home that’s equipped with a Vivint Smart Hub.

Smart Hub basics

The Vivint Smart Hub allows you to control your entire security system from a single place. It connects everything and simplifies your home security experience so you can focus on what matters most.

So what is a smart home security hub, exactly?

The heart of a truly smart home (and one of the things that makes a Vivint so great), Smart Hub is a single touchscreen hub that seamlessly connects all of your smart devices into a cohesive system and allows you to control everything from one location.

Locking your doors, arming your security system, checking your video feed, and adjusting the temperature are just a few of the things your Vivint Smart Hub allows you to do, all from one spot.

No more nightly rounds checking all the locks, flipping off lights, or turning the temperature down. You can do it all at once from one central location.

Vivint Smart Hub also serves as a central communication connection with our 24/7 professional monitoring specialists. In the event of an emergency, our monitoring center will automatically call you through the hub to check for a false alarm or to send help if needed. You can also use the hub to call for help at any time.

What features does the Smart Hub have?

Your Vivint Smart Hub is so much more than a keypad you place by your door. It's mission control for your entire home, with advanced features that make your home safer and more convenient.

Take a look:

7-inch HD touchscreen

A 7-inch HD touchscreen display provides intuitive navigation, making it easy to control your entire home. You can also view your camera footage with HD clarity right from your Smart Hub. Plus, when viewing your video feeds from Smart Hub, the HD picture is crisp and clear.

Two-way talk

In addition to the touchscreen, the Smart Hub features a built-in speaker and microphone so you can have a conversation with emergency responders or visitors at your front door. When viewing camera footage from cameras that have a microphone, such as the Vivint Indoor Camera, you can hear what's going on as well.

Status LED

If you find yourself wondering whether or not your security system is armed, there’s a way to find out that doesn’t involve accidentally setting it off. Your Smart Hub’s status LED will show whether it’s armed or disarmed with easy-to-identify orange (armed) and green (disarmed) displays.

Cellular connectivity and encrypted signals

Smart Hub is LTE cellular connected, providing a strong wireless signal to keep your smart home connected.

With any smart home device, security is an important factor in protecting your home from cyberattacks and malware. Your Smart Hub encrypts smart home signals, keeping your devices, cameras, and recordings safe from online security breaches.

24-hour battery backup

With an LTE cellular connection and 24-hour backup battery, your Smart Hub can power through any situation that temporarily disconnects the power or Internet access in your home. While a storm may temporarily take down power for your neighborhood, your home is still protected.

We all know how frustrating it can be when your power or WiFi signal goes out. But in an emergency, it can also mean you don't have a way to call for help. With battery backup protection and cellular connectivity, you can rest easy knowing you're always connected.

Siren alarm

When there’s an emergency in the home, everyone needs to be able to hear the alarm. The Smart Hub features a 100-Db siren alarm that sounds when a smoke or carbon monoxide detector goes off or the security system is tripped. (To give you an idea, it’s the same decibel level as a jackhammer or motorcycle.) So if there’s a fire in the middle of the night, the Smart Hub is loud enough to get everyone’s attention.

Another benefit? Your Smart Hub always has a pulse on what's going on in and around your home and will alert you accordingly with beeps, chimes, and alarms. (It's where the 100Db alarm comes in handy!) For example, if there's a severe weather alert in your area, like a tornado or flash flood warning, your Smart Hub will beep to alert you. Or, if someone opens your front door when the alarm is set, the siren will sound so you can take action, keeping you and your family safe.

One-touch access to emergency services

If there is an emergency in the home, you can immediately call for help right from the hub. The panic button will put you in contact with our 24/7 central monitoring station, or you can use the specific emergency and fire icons to call for an ambulance or fire department.

Control your home from a single place

Perhaps one of the best things about the Smart Hub is the ability to control all of your smart home devices from one location.

No more wandering around the house each night turning lights off or laying in bed trying to remember if you locked the front door. You can control everything from your lights to garage door to your temperature all from the same spot.
