Cellular back up?

I understand that the security system runs on WiFi, but I asked the salesperson about cellular back up for outages, he said we would have to get a Rural Smart Hub, which is $75 a month. Is this right...

    Telus security has a cell phone backup built in. It uses that as a fallback if you lose your Wi-Fi Connection. As long as you're in cell phone coverage it will use that as backup. I am positive the home and business panel are the same. A smart hub is for rural customer for internet over the cellular network. I assume you already have internet services where you are?
