Solution

Optics11 designed and installed a fiber optic intrusion detection system around the plant’s perimeter. The system utilized Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) technology to continuously monitor the fence line for any signs of intrusion. Advanced signal processing algorithms were employed to distinguish between genuine threats and environmental noise, minimizing false alarms.
