FIBER SENSYS SENSORS

Proven Leader in Fiber Optic Detection Sensors

FIBER SENSYS fibre optic sensors use advanced signal processing to detect intruders attempting to climb over, crawl under or cut through fenced perimeters ranging from 50 meters up to over 100km. Beyond fence detection, our latest sensors can also be buried allowing them to detect people walking or vehicles approaching the perimeter. In addition to perimeter protection, several of our fibre optic sensors can be mounted on walls or ceilings to detect drilling.

The detection principle consists of a laser pulse sent through fibre optic sensing cable where disturbances to the fibre cable change the characteristics of the light monitored by the Alarm Processing Unit (APU). The APU algorithms intelligently analyse these disturbances and categorise them. All of our APUs can be tuned to distinguish disturbances created by wind, vibrations generated by nearby traffic, and small animals from those caused by genuine intrusions, such as climbing over or cutting the fence.

Fibre optic sensors are ideal for high-security/harsh environment applications. Solutions can be designed for remote deployment with no power or communications needed in the field, reducing the infrastructure requirements and allowing the sensor to operate in locations prone to lightning and RF interference, corrosive environments including chemicals and salty sea air, and explosive environments.
