Partnership Expands the Frontier Secure
Portfolio to the Smart Home
Frontier Communications (NASDAQ:FTR) today announced a
partnership between its Frontier Secure business unit and Dropcam
Inc., makers of the leading Wi-Fi video monitoring camera and cloud
service. Frontier customers can now access all Dropcam products,
including the award-winning Dropcam Pro, a $199 wireless video
monitoring system with two-way audio and night-vision capabilities.
The image sensor in the Dropcam Pro camera is twice as big as
previous models, allowing the camera to capture much more light and
deliver a better picture with enhanced zoom capability. The camera
includes Bluetooth LE, making it the ideal hub for the Connected
Home. The Dropcam Pro can be installed by the customer, assisted by
live support from Frontier’s 100 percent U.S.-based Premium Tech
Support team.
Kelly Morgan, Senior Vice President and General Manager of
Frontier Secure, notes, “Frontier Secure’s mission is to give
customers Peace of Mind. Its revolutionary technology makes Dropcam
our natural ally. Frontier Secure customers can use Dropcam’s Wi-Fi
video monitoring cameras and optional Cloud Recording to remotely
drop in on their houses, babies, pets, businesses, or anything or

valuable addition to a portfolio that includes Internet-enabled
devices that enhance the broadband experience, cloud-based backup
& sharing, proactive identity protection, 100% U.S.-based
