Product Description

With mobile phones getting ever smaller, they are increasingly being used in areas where they are forbidden. This technology is also becoming the preferred medium for bugs and other surveillance devices. To combat these problems, PDA Electronics has developed the multi-purpose CPD3000 System which can monitor large areas for active cellular devices from a single location.

The CPD310 hub-shown above-can link via a licence free radio link to several hundred remote detectors (CPD351 units) at distances of up to 5km . All remote alarm information is logged and special purpose printer provides a hard copy output.

Applications: Government buildings, Military Installations and Prison Establishments.

System Features

The CPD3000 is designed for both permanent temporary installations. With no wiring issues to worry about, CPD351 units can be quickly located in areas where early detection of cellular activity is required. In prisons where security walls can severly impair transmissions, the range from remote to CPD310 hub can be significantly reduced. To increase range or help avoid RF obstructions like perimeter walls etc, a repeater can be fitted into the system. The CPD320 unit is just place high in a suitable location. One antenna connector is for a suitable external antenna to link back to the hub location the other antenna is for the receiver. Where a clear line of sight can be obtained back to the hub antenna, the use of a high gain directional antenna on the CPD320 can greatly enhance the range. All CPD351 units which have no direct link to the 310 hub now are picked up by the local CPD320 and their transmissions are re-broadcast back to the hub. All CPD351 units on such a system all the use the same frequency and link settings. This allows the mobility of units which is so important a feature of the CPD3000 system. For extra security any CPD351 can be connected to a standard ECM606 cellular jammer. Once the connection is made the hub will now identify the units as a reactive jammer designated by a “J” and the unit number instead of the normal “D”. Everytime the 351 detects cell phone activity, it immdeiately commands the jammer to fire on the appropriate bands for approximately 30 seconds. Again the jammer can be moved to areas of concern and the system automatically adjusts. For more permanent applications the CPD351 can be replace with an ECM616 which functionally is the same as a CPD351+ECM606 but everything is repackaged into a single unit.
The system also supports the ECM671 high powered jammer. In the future other detector modules may be supplied such as satellite phone detectors (Thuraya and Iridium) and jammers.

Frequency bands


The CPD351 is specifically engineered to monitor handset transmit frequencies only

☐ EGSM900 (880 – 915MHz)
☐ GSM1800 (1710 – 1785 MHz)
☐ W-CDMA / UMTS 2100 (1920 – 1980 MHz)

Additionally the unit will monitor frequencies from 400-500MHz which is used to suppress false alarms generated by harmonics produced by prison radios.

Radio Link
Frequency: 458.85MHz
Power: 100mW
Effective Range: 5km (line of sight) using unity gain antennas

Battery life
Internal rechargeable batteries will give an operational life of better than 3 days on a full charge. Battery charging from the external 12VDC source is microprocessor controlled for optimum performance.

CPD320 Repeater Unit
Same size as the CPD351 and uses the same external 12VDC power supply. The unit is fitted with anti-tamper measures to prevent unauthorised interference with the system.
Two SMA connectors – one for the link transmitter antenna and one for the receiver for the transmissions from the remote units.

CPD310 Hub Unit
The link protocol is specially designed to facilitate high transmission efficiencies which allow up to 200 units to be support from one hub. Multi-tasking software allows for the reception of up to 15 simultaneous alarm transmissions.
