Cellbusters Zone Protector™

The Zone Protector™ is the ultimate detection device. It is capable of detecting all cell phones (any carrier and any protocol in all countries) when the phone is in standby mode, texting, making a call or transmitting data.

In fact, the Zone Protector™ is far more sophisticated than a cell phone detector.

Comparable to a spectrum analyzer, the Zone Protector™ has the ability to scan user-definable frequency ranges along with the ability to alert, notify, control a third party device, or simply log as soon as it detects relevant transmission activity.

Precise frequency filtering technology, managed and controlled by a 32-bit microprocessor, enables the Zone Protector™ to deliver accurate detection with virtually zero false positives.

Once cellular or appropriate RF activity is detected, the Zone Protector™ can be set to activate a choice of alerting options or to silently log all detected activity.

The Zone Protector™ is extremely versatile. Depending on the demands of your environment, it can be deployed as a portable device for standalone operation or as a network device for centralized monitoring and management.
