Buried sensors detect and locate the movement of people and vehicles as they approach or cross the perimeter. Completely covert, buried sensors are invisible to intruders and maintain site aesthetics. Being invisible, they offer the lowest Vulnerability of defeat (Vd) of any outdoor intrusion detection sensors \u2013 intruders can\u2019t defeat it if they don\u2019t know it\u2019s there.<\/p>\n

There are two main buried cable sensor technologies \u2013 fiber optic and electromagnetic.<\/p>\n

Buried Fiber Optic Sensors<\/h3>\n

When an intruder moves across the ground above a buried fiber optic sensor cable-whether walking, running, crawling,\u202for driving, characteristic vibrations are created. The system distinguishes these from background noise and declares an alarm when the detection criteria are met.\u202fAdvanced fiber optic sensors have classification capabilities, enabling the sensor to distinguish between people, vehicles, digging, and other activities.<\/p>\n

Buried Electromagnetic Sensors<\/h3>\n

Consisting\u202fof a pair of buried cables, the sensor\u202fgenerates\u202fan invisible above-ground electromagnetic detection field. When an intruder enters the field, an alarm is generated.\u202fOperation\u202fis\u202fnot affected by vegetation (including grass, shrubs, and trees) and these sensors are insensitive to wind, rain, snow, hail, sandstorms, fog, extreme temperatures, seismic vibration, acoustics, magnetic effects and blowing debris.\u202fThey can\u202falso\u202fbe calibrated to reject animal detection.<\/p>\n

Senstar\u2019s Buried Sensor Portfolio<\/h2>\n

Senstar offers both fiber optic (FiberPatrol\u00ae FP1150) and electromagnetic (OmniTrax\u00ae) buried sensors. These advanced market-leading technologies can\u202fpinpoint the exact location of an intrusion and\u202feven\u202fdetect simultaneous intrusions\u202fdistributed around the perimeter.<\/p>\n

FiberPatrol\u00ae FP1150<\/a><\/h3>\n

With supported distances of up to 80 km (49.7 mi) per processor, FiberPatrol FP1150 is ideal for protecting long range perimeters and borders. The sensor can\u202fpinpoint the exact location of an intrusion and\u202feven\u202fdetect simultaneous intrusions\u202fdistributed around the perimeter.\u202fIf the sensor cable is cut, either accidentally or in an attempt to defeat the sensor, the FP1150 immediately reports the incident, including its exact location. Moreover, the sensor retains the ability to detect and localize intrusions up to the point of the cut. When installed in the cut-immune configuration, the sensor continues to provide detection on the full perimeter even after a cable cut. The FP1150 may also be used\u202ffor pipeline Third Party Interference (TPI) detection<\/a> and data conduit protection<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The FP1150 requires no powered or conductive items in the field, is immune to EMI and lightning and intrinsically safe in explosive atmospheres, has a long sensor cable service life (25+ years), and unused fibers can be reused for other applications.<\/p>\n

OmniTrax\u00ae<\/a><\/h3>\n

\"RenderingOmniTrax detects and locates perimeter intrusions over a distance of up to 800 m (1\/2 mi) per sensor processor. It is ideal for protecting short perimeters, such as large residences, or can be daisy-chained together to protect long perimeters. The sensor can\u202fpinpoint the exact location of an intrusion and\u202feven\u202fdetect simultaneous intrusions\u202fdistributed around the perimeter.<\/p>\n

Detection is based on the intruder\u2019s electrical conductivity, size and speed. Detection for an upright 35 kg (77 lbs) intruder, penetrating through the detection field is greater than 99%, with a 95% confidence. Objects less than 10 kg (22 lbs) are rejected with a statistical confidence level of 95%.<\/p>\n

OmniTrax sensor cables can carry both power and data, which greatly reduces infrastructure requirements. Power and communications are bi-directional and provide full redundancy in the event of a cable cut.<\/p>\n
