Fence Protection


FIBER FENCE
General Overview
The FIBER FENCE Security System is used primarily for detecting intrusions and fence damage over long distances using fiber optic cable. FIBER FENCE has an exceptional monitoring range. Our sensors do not require electricity beyond the Zone Control Unit. That enables our sensors to be used in remote areas without the need for electricity at the sensing location.












FIBER FENCE Main components
Zone Control Unit – Sends light through the fiber optic cable & Mouse Trip
Fiber Optic Cable – Carries the light signal
Mouse Trip Sensor – Activates an alarm when the fence is disturbed
Zone Mapping Software – Displays intrusion location on a map
FIBER FENCE BASIC FACTS
Perimeter protection for a single zone up to 10 miles can be achieved. In perimeter fence line applications, FIBER FENCE operates utilizing a series of Mouse Trips mounted at regular intervals along the fence line. Fiber optic cable is threaded through the Mouse Trip. When the cable is disturbed there is a reduction in the intensity of the light in the cable. The reduction is detected by the Zone Control Unit and sets off the alarm. Using internet options in conjunction with the optional FIBER FENCE Zone Mapping Software the location of the disturbance is reported.
FIBER FENCE DO’S AND DON’TS OF INSTALLATION
(Complete instruction manual provided upon purchase)
DONT’S
• Pull hard on any fiber optic cable especially when unspooling cable along the fence or area to be protected.
• Pull the cable tight around a corner or sharp bend.
• Over tighten a fiber cable to another cable, fence, or object. Make sure the zip-tie, velcro, or twist tie does not exert too much force.
• Cut the cable for ANY reason. Once fiber optic cable is cut, a splice will be required.
• Rush. When working with fiber optic cable and equipment be patient. Taking time in the first place will avoid frustration later on. Follow the installation directions carefully.
DO’S
• Be gentle with fiber optic cable at all times. Remember first and foremost inside the protective jacket are several layers surrounding a glass fiber no larger than a strand of hair. Properly installed, the cable will last for years.
