Extended range baby monitor

Perfect for larger homes or properties, this monitor maintains a strong, clear connection over greater distances, ensuring parents stay connected.

An extended range baby monitor keeps a steady connection across larger homes, finished basements, backyards or multi-storey houses. It suits parents who move between floors or spend time outside during naps and want fewer dropped signals than standard models give.

Questions people ask

How far does an extended range monitor actually reach?
Listed ranges are usually measured in open space with no obstacles. Indoors, walls, floors and appliances can shorten the working distance.
Will it work from the backyard?
Often it will, but exterior walls and distance matter. Testing the signal in the yard soon after setup is a good idea.
