FP3000 - Wall-Mounted Intrusion Detection Systems

Description

The FiberPatrol® FP3000 series of wall-mounted intrusion detection systems are designed to detect and report attempts to scale or breach masonry walls. The FP3000 series systems are available as location-sensing (FP3100) and multi-zone (FP3200) versions.

Masonry walls frequently comprise a part of or even the entire perimeter of high-value facilities, especially those located in urban areas. Monitoring walls against intrusion attempts is an essential component of perimeter protection. However, wall-mounted applications present a significant challenge to most intrusion detection systems originally developed for light-weight fencing.Compared to traditional fence-mounted sensors, the sensitivity of a wall-mounted sensor needs to increase drastically for effective intrusion detection.

The FiberPatrol® wall-mounted intrusion detection systems are based on Optellios' patented fiberoptic sensor technology featuring unsurpassed sensitivity. The FP3000 systems accurately detect any attempt to climb over the wall that disturbs the sensor cable. This includes such common intruder actions as leaning a ladder against the edge of the wall, grabbing the edge of the wall to pull up, and tossing a rope over the wall. The location-sensing FP3100 system additionally reports the precise location of the intrusion attempt.

These systems can be installed to monitor masonry walls, building facades, rooftops, bridges, and other solid architectural structures. Multiple cable installation options are available to effectively match wall construction, owner requirements, and budget targets. Depending on the selected installation approach, the sensor cable can protect the outer edge of the wall, both the outer and the inner edges, or the entire wall-top area. Low-profile cable installation has minimal impact on the appearance of decorative walls.
