Criminals in prsions who rely on cell phones to continue their life of crime will have a new watch to worry about. WatchHound Cell Phone Monitor has been released.
The WatchHound Cell Phone Monitor scans cell-phone prohibited areas, creating virtual wireless-free zones without the need for jamming. All incoming and outgoing wireless calls are detected and time-stamped for analysis. It can even tell the offender that the call has been detected, producing a message "Cell phone detected."
The WatchHound communicates via Ethernet. There is no need to plug into the wall socket because it is POE-Power Over Ethernet capable. There is also a dry switch (SPST) contact output, allowing the user to trigger a light, siren or a camera/DVR to record the offender.
