It is possible that foes can spy on you using radio microphones working on ‘stealth’ microwave frequency bands. Conventional RF detectors are typically capable of discovering signals up to 4-6 GHz; therefore higher frequencies usually stay unstudied during sweeping procedures, unless you apply an expensive spectrum analyzer.
The new microwave pointer-probe iProtect 1215 was designed to extend the checked frequency range during sweeping procedures up to 13 GHz. It can find surveillance bugging devices which are usually not detectable by standard RF detectors. The directed antenna allows the operator to understand where the signal originates from and, as such, to locate the source physically.
Particular attention should be paid to the 5.8GHz ISM band on which a number of wireless devices can be active without being discovered by conventional RF detectors at a sufficient distance
Typical signals detected by iProtect 1215 are
- Wireless microphones working on 5 GHz frequency band
- Wireless video cameras 5GHz
- Covert 5GHz Wi-Fi access point
- Covert 5GHz Wi-Fi client device
- Other surveillance (bugging devices) employing frequencies between 4-13 GHz
