Acoustic Cable
Security Design Services are specifiers and installers of the Microphonic Cable System. It is designed to pick up vibrations as soon as any contact is made with the fence. A security system which incorporates this technology will alarm as soon as an attack starts.
Our systems are designed for both manned and remote sites. The system functions equally well as a stand-alone or as part of an integrated security system, offering standard alarm, tamper and audio outputs which can be connected into most alarm systems.
Many electronic security systems focus on detecting intruders after entry to property. This often alerts police or security too late to be able to prevent an intruder from achieving his objectives.
When an attack takes place the Microphonic cables detect the vibration in the fence or wall. Loose conductors move within a magnetic field, inducing a current and generating a signal. This signal is analysed by processing electronics, which 'decide' on the nature of the vibrations and activate an alarm if necessary.
Systems can be linked to industry standard alarm panels for simple alarm management or interfaced with CCTV camera or computer-based systems. Clear audio outputs of the attack - a feature of most of our systems - simplify verification and provide a 'sixth sense'.
