New capabilities include extended detection range, more application types, and simplified per-meter licensing
Senstar has introduced enhancements to its FiberPatrol FP1150 fiber optic intrusion detection sensor. “Initially launched in 2018, the FP1150 is a compact, rugged and highly integrated addition to Senstar’s FiberPatrol line,” said Product Manager Stewart Dewar. “Now with its extended detection range, support for a variety of deployment applications, and simplified per-meter licensing, the FiberPatrol FP1150 is a comprehensive, market-leading, multi-purpose intrusion detection solution for sites of all sizes.”
Originally designed for fence applications and offering intrusion detection coverage up to 10 km (6.2 mi) per processor, the FP1150 can now detect intrusions up to 80 km (49.7 mi) per processor for fence, wall-top and buried applications, and up to 100 km (62.1 mi) for pipeline and data conduit Third-Party Interference (TPI) detection. As well, to simplify planning and budgetary processes, Senstar has implemented a per-meter licensing model, allowing customers to license only the sensor coverage distance they require, but with the option to add additional coverage at any time. Other enhancements to the FiberPatrl FP1150 include upgraded processing specifications (CPU, memory), software support for redundant sensor units, and sensor unit versions for backwards compatibility.
Senstar’s FiberPatrol fiber optic technology features low nuisance alarm rates, distinguishes between real threats and environmental disturbances, provides true detection of simultaneous events, offers cut immune configuration options, requires no power or data infrastructure in the field, is EMI and lightning immune, provides software configurable detection zones, and integrates with a wide variety of SMS/PSIM platforms.
