Cellular Detector GSM184
GSM Surveillance Unit
The
GSM mobile phone detector is especially suitable for use by security personnel
in Government establishments, military bases, prisons, in commercial applications
such as banking, dealing rooms and for security companies who need to
sweep premises for concealed surveillance devices.
With GSM phones getting ever smaller, they are increasingly being used in areas where they may compromise security. This technology is also becoming the preferred medium for bugs and other surveillance devices.
The 184 is designed as a 'mousetrap' surveillance unit. The device is sold separately but is also supplied as part of the Winkelmann MicroScan MS300 Countersurveillance Receiver. In operation the user selects one of the three scan ranges and then leaves the unit in a suitable location. Any detected GSM activity latches one of the two alarm indicators - NET (for network or SMS transmissions) and Call for voice calls. These indicators continue to flash until reset.
*Ideal for security firms wanting to scan rooms for dormant GSM based surveillance equipment.
Even on standby, all mobile phones poll their nearest base station at least once an hour, and we can detect this network signal. Using the minimum range, limits the scan to the targeted room only.
The unit can also be deployed overnight in prisons to check if illicit phones are being used.
