In what would typically take weeks, a 100-acre, 360-degree perimeter security installation at a highly sensitive luxury estate was completed in one day using the SpotterRF C40 Compact Surveillance Radar (CSR) and CC8A contact closure box.

The new system, which includes five C40 radars and the CC8A, protects 7,700 feet of perimeter and provides live feedback on walking personnel and vehicles within 100 acres of the estate. 

The CC8A receives track information from connected Spotters, allowing the user to create alert zones on an interface similar to Google Maps. Then the CC8A closes a dry contact and sends an urgent email or audible alert when a moving object is detected by the radar in the defined zone.

Spotter radar units are available in four sizes, weighing as little as 1.5 pounds each and using less energy than a light bulb. The units communicate with Google Earth and Internet-connected PCs, smartphones or tablets.
