680 – Access Switch

The ShieldLITE fibre optic security system is designed for monitoring Network Intrusion or as a trigger for Emergency shut down systems.

The Access Switch, located at a remote network location, is a highly reflective optical switch that requires no local power.

It is designed to fit onto the gates or doors of cabinets, containers or underground chambers where access requires close monitoring.

When closed the switch is highly efficient at reflecting light back down the optical fibre. When the switch is open it blocks reflections to a minimum. Resulting in a high change of reflec on detectable over 80km away.

Combined with the ShieldLite Monitoring Equipment multiple switches can be installed to run over existing optical fibre infrastructure to protect and manage remote network assets and the data being transmitted.
