Berkeley Varitronics Systems Wins Prestigious Product Award at the 2010 Government Security Expo and Conference in Washington, D.C.
The BVS Bloodhound Cell Phone Detector Takes Top Honors in Wireless Security Category
METUCHEN, N.J., April 5 -- Berkeley Varitronics Systems, Inc. (BVS), a leading provider of advanced wireless solutions and products to the domestic and international wireless telecommunications industry, was recognized for having the leading product in the wireless security category at the recently concluded 2010 GovSec Expo and Conference in Washington, D.C. This year eight winners were honored in six award categories including Homeland Security, IT Software Security and Disaster Recovery among others.
Since it's introduction in December 2009, the Bloodhound Cell Phone Detector has already been introduced into numerous correctional institutions, universities and various governmental secure facilities.
"Bloodhound is aiding prison guards and security professionals in a wide range of secure facilities across the US in order to successfully detect and locate contraband cell phones," says Scott Schober, President, Berkeley Varitronics Systems. "Based on current and future demand, we look forward to many more success stories."
The Bloodhound cell phone detector is a viable alternative to cell phone jamming. In fact, jamming is in violation of FCC rules. Furthermore, a leading wireless industry association, the CTIA, is on record as opposing jamming as a method of reducing illegal cell phone usage.
As a wireless, handheld device, the Bloodhound is a safe, legal, quick and cost-effective way to monitor and pinpoint unauthorized cell phones within correctional facilities 24 hours a day. The complete Bloodhound unit costs $1,800 and can also be utilized by any government agency that want to enforce a 'no wireless policy'. This can also include schools, hospitals, airliners, etc.
BVS will be showcasing the Bloodhound Cell Phone Detector (link to high res image) at the Counter Terrorism Expo 2010 April 14-15th at booth #K20 in the United Kingdom.
