Wolfhound-Ultra™ tactical signal detection system is a precision, handheld, wireless sniffer specifically tuned to the RF signature of common 2G/3G/4G/5G cell phones (both U.S. & international bands) without false triggering from BT/BLE or Wi-Fi signals.
Wolfhound-Ultra’s high speed scanning receiver utilizes an integrated, multi-band direction finding antenna system allowing security personnel to locate nearby cell phones in either standby mode* or during active voice, text or data RF transmissions making it the perfect TSCM tool for enforcing your NO WIRELESS security policy. Wolfhound-Ultra’s simple, lightweight operation and touchscreen make it easy to use for both trained and untrained security personnel.
In addition, Wolfhound-Ultra identifies each cellphone by frequency, carrier and signal strength (not by phone number nor IMEI) allowing for detection, identification and comparative listing of multiple cellphones. This can prove useful in situations involving a variety of cellphone use such as large prisons and even disaster zones involving search and rescue operations. This also means that Wolfhound-Ultra is legal and the preferred tool of choice for law enforcement looking to avoid time consuming court orders required by the use of some more complex and illegal phone interception devices.
Wolfhound-Ultra has up to 175 foot radius for cell phone detection (indoors) and up to 1 mile outdoors (line-of-sight) making it the most sensitive cell phone tracker on the market. Wolfhound-Ultra includes swappable antennas, one omni-directional and one direction finding antenna allowing users to quickly switch from mobile phone detection to mobile phone location and seizure.

Does Wolfhound-Ultra identify callers or their phone numbers?
No. Wolfhound-Ultra is a precision RF cellular scanning device that identifies cellphone activity (both standby mode and active modes) and assists in locating them. It is a wireless tool used by security officers and personnel that require a NO WIRELESS security policy
What does the Wolfhound-Ultra firmware update include and how does it work?
Wolfhound-Ultra is available now with all the features you need to
How far away can I detect cell phones?
Typical range is about 125 feet but this varies depending upon the environment.
Can I detect phones in standby mode?
Wolfhound-Ultra can detect phones in the standby mode but keep in mind when a phone is ON in standby it is not constantly transmitting. Phones register to the local cell tower/base station at different intervals that the tower/carrier determines (could be every so many seconds, minutes, 5 minutes, or we have seen 20 minutes). An easy way to test this is to take your phone and put it next to Wolfhound-Ultra and shut off your phone completely wait a few minutes then turn the phone on your phone should try to register to the base station and you should see a short alert on Wolfhound-Ultra’s screen.
Can Wolfhound-Ultra work in areas with a lot of cellular activity?
Yes, but it is much easier to identify specific cellular sources in areas where phone use is normally restricted. Wolfhound-Ultra always looks for the strongest signal but users can adjust attenuation to help distinguish between various cellular sources.
