The other big issue being that if power is cut, your ATA or VoIP device is offline and it can't make a call. You'll probably need to back it up with some sort of battery backup.

yes they did testing, and i had to play with my ata to have it working 100%, my home alarm notifies me by chirping to tell me phone service is offline.
im using a cisco ata. i think i am ok and dont need backup as this is a townhouse complex and draws attention. (neighbor is a cop).
alarm cntr gets codes as to which door and window or motion. so working 100% . i have ups, that last couple of hours.might even outlast alarm backup batt..so im good that way
