Southwest Microwave has expanded its suite of intelligent microwave sensor technologies with the introduction of the IP-based INTREPID Model 336-POE Long Range Digital Microwave Link. This all-weather, Power over Ethernet (POE) sensor makes reliable perimeter security more accessible than ever, coupling field-proven RF detection performance with secure network connectivity.
With a range of 457 meters (1500 feet), operating at K-band frequency, Model 336-POE is ideal for the protection of fence lines, open areas, gates, entryways, walls or rooftops. The sensor employs advanced digital signal processing algorithms to optimise discrimination between intrusion attempts and environmental disturbances, mitigating risk of site compromise while preventing nuisance alarms.
Reducing wiring requirements
The system recognises unique profiles of intruders walking, running or jumping through the detection field, offers enhanced crawl and vehicle detection, and optimises performance in narrow corridors. Along with instantly triggering an alarm when an intrusion attempt is detected, the sensor alerts on unexpected changes in microwave alignment signal. A configuration security feature also provides notification when changes to device settings are attempted, ensuring that only approved modifications are implemented.
The sensor features an on-board network server for set-up and control that supports multiple ports and sessions
Employing a single Ethernet cable for power and data transmission, each Model 336-POE sensor operates as a network element, significantly reducing wiring requirements and seamlessly integrating with other IP/POE-based security devices, such as cameras and access control systems. The sensor features an on-board network server for set-up and control that supports multiple ports and sessions.
Intrusion detection capabilities
Sensor configuration, alignment and testing are handled using an embedded, browser-based Installation Setup Tool (IST), eliminating the need for software installation and simplifying device administration or diagnostics. “This sensor integrates security with convenience by successfully pairing Southwest Microwave's superior microwave intrusion detection capabilities with the ability to access and manage a sensor, at any time, from any location by any authenticated PC or handheld device connected to the network.” Maira Zanrosso, Director of Sales and Marketing
Alarm monitoring is handled via Southwest Microwave’s server-based POE control module (CM-POE) or through an available no-cost SDK that simplifies high-level interface to third-party physical security information management (PSIM) or video management systems (VMS).
