Perimeter Security
When your intrusion detection system cannot be allowed to fail, you need to know for certain that it won't. Quintron brings you solid perimeter security with the Fiber Defender series, a lineup of intrusion detection systems that use a thin, inert fiber optic cable as the sensor.
 
Attach the sensor cable to the mesh of a perimeter fence or strap it to a wall and the system's corresponding electronic Alarm Processing Unit (APU) detects vibrations from any intruder climbing or cutting through the barrier. The Fiber Defender series is a user-calibrated system, allowing you to program the APU to screen out signals from non-threatening events such as wind or small animals, while optimizing detection of valid signals from intruders. “Smart” digital signal processors in each APU can be programmed to automatically compensate for disturbances from wind, giving you a system that provides maximum zone protection in nearly all circumstances.
 
Far from being limited to chain link fence applications, the Fiber Defender series is capable of adapting to protect many physical platforms, including wrought iron fences, walls, grates, concertina wire, and razor coils. Protective flexible conduit allows the sensor cable to be attached to multiple barrier types while giving it the durability required for nearly all permanent outdoor installations.
 
Two Fiber Defender lineups are available: The FD-200 and the FD-300 series. The FD-200 series features the FD-220P - an entry-level fiber optic system - the FD-208, a system incorporating insensitive lead-in cables up to 20 km long for remote deployment of the sensor cable. The FD-300 series features dual-zone or single-zone APU's and an anemometer option (FC-33X models only) for increased wind compensation. All models in the FD-300 series are available with direct network connectivity, supporting XML communications protocol or Fiber Security Network functionality.
