FiberPatrol FP1150: Perimeter Security For the Long Haul

When security professionals design perimeter protection systems, they face a fundamental question: Will this solution still protect my facility in ten, fifteen, or even 20 years? The FiberPatrol FP1150 fiber optic perimeter intrusion detection system answers with an emphatic yes, backed by engineering excellence and proven field performance.
Built to Last, Proven in Practice
Seven years of FiberPatrol FP1150 field-data tells a compelling story. The main sensor unit delivers an impressive Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 251,691 hours. This calculation accounts for real-world deployment conditions, including shipment-to-installation delays that reflect actual project timelines.
The FP1150’s exceptional reliability stems from robust design principles and rigorous testing. Our outdoor components, such as the sensor cables themselves, are tested at Senstar’s outdoor facility, and endure extreme temperatures and harsh weather conditions.
Redundancy Without Compromise
Mission-critical facilities demand failsafe operation. The FP1150’s redundancy configuration delivers automatic failover that remains transparent to alarm systems and operators. Each sensor unit incorporates redundant hot-swappable power supplies and solid-state drives, eliminating single points of failure.
The system extends this philosophy across the entire installation. Dual gigabit Ethernet ports ensure network connectivity resilience. Optional redundant sensor unit configurations provide processor-level backup. Even storage systems benefit from RAID hard drive arrays that protect against data loss.
Cut-Immune Configuration
Traditional fence-mounted perimeter intrusion detection sensors become vulnerable when cables suffer damage. The FP1150 transforms this weakness into strength through its cut-immune configuration. When sensor cables experience cuts—whether accidental or deliberate—the system immediately reports the incident location while maintaining detection capabilities up to the cut point from both directions.
With FiberPatrol FP1150’s cut-immune configuration, perimeter intrusion detection continues even after a cable cut except for a few meters on either side of the cut
Corporate Stability You Can Trust
Behind every FiberPatrol FP1150 installation stands a company with four decades of security industry experience. Senstar operates debt-free with substantial cash reserves, providing customers confidence in long-term support and product evolution. This financial stability translates into consistent research and development investment, ensuring Senstar remains at the forefront of physical security technology.
