The patent-pending Guard Tower intrusion detection
system is a “smart” perimeter intrusion detection system (PIDS) that does what other
perimeter systems can not.
- Filters nuisance alarms
- Identifies precise breach locations
- Adapts to any perimeter
The Guard Tower matrix taut wire array adapts to any perimeter, and can be configured
in many combinations including as a wall topper, as a stand-alone barrier or retro-fit
onto an existing fence where additional security is needed. This system works by
detecting wire deflection in any direction. Depending on security levels, alarm
resolution can be to within 10 ft. (3m).
Three security level choices are available, depending on budgets, threat levels
or security requirements for a given application. Note that levels can be upgraded
at a later point should security requirements change. All three levels of the Guard
Tower® system can integrate with CCTV cameras, automatically directing images to
control monitors for security personnel to visually assess an alarm condition.
The system can be used in detection mode only, or in extremely high security applications
as an electrified perimeter barrier.
Each Guard Tower sensor column has two optional communication ports that can accept
dry contacts for other devices, such as lights, cameras, sounders, and gates. Signals
from these devices can be controlled at the headend.
Each zone of the Guard Tower perimeter security system can be configured one of
three ways.
