Hook in AC Fire Alarms to Security System

I'm looking to tie in my BRK AC fire alarm system into my Caddx NX-8e Security System so I can have it monitored in case of a fire. I'd prefer not to rewire my entire house with fire alarms if possible.

Does anyone of any systems which will allow me to tie the two systems together (i.e. AC->DC systems)? I'm aware of the safety issues/code violations around doing this, so I'd like to do it the right way.

So far, the only thing I've seen which can do this is the Cepco system which monitors the alarm from a sensor which sends a signal over the AC wires which gets picked up by a remote receiver which can be either hardwired-in or plugged directly into an AC outlet (the box has either NO or NC connections leading from it.)

I wasn't sure if there were any other systems out there that can also do this that might be a better way of doing it. Thanks!!!
