Fence-mounted intrusion detection with LED lighting from ProTech and Cast Lighting

PROTECH partners with CAST Perimeter with innovative joint solution that “sheds light” on intruders

RENO, NV – Two of the leading perimeter intrusion detection system manufacturers are teaming up to provide a new, combined solution for integrators and end-users – one that illuminates the perimeter from CAST and alerts of intrusions by PROTECH.

The solution combines the ability to identify when an intruder breaches the fence or active infrared barrier and then illuminates the area to deter them.

Working in conjunction with PROTECH’s accelerometer-based G-Fence (fence-mounted intrusion detection system) and Maxiris long-range infrared barrier technologies that detect cutting, climbing and lifting of the fence or beam breaks respectively, CAST Perimeter’s low voltage LED lighting system illuminates the area when an attempted intrusion occurs. This is done through the integration of PROTECH’s fence-mounted or IR barrier systems to the LED lighting system.

“This integration between our security systems provides customers with two key benefits – lighting the area to deter the intruder and providing control center staff another level of verification by giving clear sight of what is going on,” said PROTECH’s Chief Operating Officer Larry Thomas. “Further, if the facility has security cameras, video images change from black and white to color when the CAST Perimeter lights turn on, providing better image quality and viewing for police or security personnel.”

Regardless of the PIDS technology (fence-mounted or active IR), PROTECH’ system immediately identifies a breach and CAST’s technology lights up the specific area.

“CAST is pleased that we are able to integrate our technologies to provide a more in-depth solution for intrusion detection,” said George Ishee, National Sales Manager, CAST Perimeter. “The integration of our technologies was seamless and customers are enjoying the benefits of being able to illuminate the area under potential attack.”

Ishee added this is exactly what facility owners and operators are looking for in a perimeter security solution.

“The number one fear of intruders is being seen, and when the lights are turned on by PROTECH’s solution, intruders are deterred and properties remain secure,” Ishee added.

The two companies have already deployed the solution in several facilities in the US and have eliminated breaches at these sites. They continue to work on future partnership opportunities.
