This system is designed to provide simple and rapid force protection for for small-scale covert forces or to assist surveillance units to conduct remote monitoring of access routes from cover and beyond line of sight.

The systems low cost,unclassified and non-attributable technology combined with 'over the air' software erasure supports 'leave behind' scenarios.

A network consists of small encrypted mesh radios with sensors that provide IR, microwave and seismic detection with optional remote relay closure and user supplied triggering.

These low profile battery operated nodes have tamper sensing and can be buried (less antenna). The system offers the user considerable tactical flexibility.

The sensor network is monitored by a bespoke hand-held touch screen receiver. This unit displays node status, trigger and tamper messages and also provides real time network management. A receiver variant can also suppport satellite, GSM or CNR back-haul capability.

The simple 'plug and play' nature of the AS/PAY-132 means that the initial training budget is low and that if necessary 'soldiers five' field training can deliver good results.

The AS/PAY-132 is available to government,military and law enforcement users with AES128 encryption. Other crypto options are available.
