KINGFISHER Fibre Optic Microphone SOM3 / SOM4 / SOM4+

The Security Optical Microphone has uses in machine and equipment monitoring, particularly in hostile environments, and in overt or covert security surveillance applications.

The only part of the Security Optical Microphone present in the monitored area is the tip of an inert 6mm diameter cylinder. In overt or covert security surveillance, whether used as a back-up device supporting other overt recording technology, as a covert unit or as an overt, albeit concealed, device, the combination of innovative opto technology with advanced signal processing and conditioning has produced a device with many advantages over more traditional approaches.

The SOM4/4+ has an enhanced electronics box (EOU 200) with built in battery, volume control and two analog outputs, one for headphones and the other a fixed, high gain audio output for recording or a data analyzer.
