enabling an operator to handle the alarm event based on the received alarm data;
accessing voice communication information associated with the wireless communication module included in the alarm system; and
establishing a voice communication session, over a wireless voice channel that is decoupled from the wireless data channel, between a communication device used by the operator handling the alarm event and the wireless communication module included in the alarm system based on the accessed voice communication information.

Abstract
Techniques are described for establishing a two-way voice communication session with an alarm system. The alarm system may establish a two-way voice communication session with an operator associated with a monitoring service that provides monitoring services for alarm events detected by the alarm system. The alarm system also may establish a two-way voice communication session with a notification recipient that is interested in receiving notifications associated with events detected by the alarm system.
