PRESS RELEASE

Bloodhound™ is a handheld, wireless sniffer specifically tuned to the RF signature of common cell phones including PCS, CDMA / WCDMA, GSM and Cellular bands (specify North American or European/Asian model). Bloodhound’s high speed scanning receiver utilizes a multi-band DF (Direction Finding) antenna system allowing security personnel to locate all nearby cell phones in either standby mode or actively using voice, text (SMS) or data transmissions making it the perfect tool for enforcing your NO WIRELESS security policy in universities, government & military installations, hospitals, law enforcement agencies, financial institutions and prisons & correctional facilties. Instead of blanket, no-wireless jam signals (which are illegal and unsafe in many instances), Bloodhound prevents wireless usage by detecting and even locating the perpetrator.

How far away can I detect cellphones?

Typical range is about 0-50 feet but this varies depending upon the environment.
