International. Senstar's latest product, UltraWave, the digital perimeter microwave intrusion detection (PIDS) system, was installed for the first time in Europe, in a prison in Denmark.
When Mr. Hansen, CEO of Sikon Denmark A/S, the largest security contractor for the aforementioned prison, was asked about his decision to use UltraWave and not other technologies, he said: "We were aware that it was a new system, however, based on previous positive experiences with Senstar, we were confident that the system had been thoroughly tested and was ready for use in the real world. We also know that the technical service and customer support staff are very reliable, and that any issues that arose would be taken care of quickly."
UltraWave is the new generation of volumetric microwave intrusion detection systems, consisting of a fully digital transmitter and receiver that create an invisible detection zone. This specific application is part of a larger perimeter sensing system designed in multiple layers, including a double-layer fencing with Senstar's buried Omnitrax cable between them.
The UltraWave closes the gap as a virtual trellis in an access area, to ensure the absence of gaps in the coverage, the transmitter and receiver are located behind a fence.
Hansen also expressed that "we were very pleased to see how easy the installation and configuration was on the existing platforms, it was plug-and-play and it feels like a mature system."
