The GR-SATX offers discreet and highly effective audio surveillance capabilities, cleverly concealed in a covert and realistic form. The AVA01 model exemplifies this concept, with a transmitter expertly housed within the body of a popular speaker/Virtual Assistant. This Virtual Assistant speaker perfectly mimics the behavior of a certain VA speaker found in many homes and offices.
To ensure optimal audio capture, the AVA01 model utilizes two strategically placed microphones positioned beneath the charcoal speaker fabric. The perforated cloth material allows for excellent audio clarity, capturing important sounds with precision. The intention behind this covert surveillance transmitter is security through obscurity, as these widely popular Virtual Assistant speakers have become a common fixture in homes and businesses, seldom arousing suspicion or attracting attention. They can discreetly blend into any environment, even in the most secure locations.
Accessing the transmitter's functions, such as on/off and charging, is convenient through discrete switches and ports that seamlessly integrate into the speaker's design, resembling a manufacturer finish and mimicking the speaker's normal functionality. For charging the embedded transmitter, we recommend doing so only when the internal battery is fully depleted to maximize the standby time of several hundred hours.
Comprehensive documentation accompanies the AVA01 model, providing detailed information on its features and functionality, as well as guidance on accessing the ports and switches. This ensures easy setup and operation, optimizing the effectiveness of the covert surveillance solution. To guarantee safe and secure delivery, all covert transmitters are shipped in their original manufacturer packaging.
This is the inaugural AST (Audio Surveillance Transmitter) that enables remote audio monitoring from any location worldwide, leveraging advanced Cellular + IoT connectivity to provide coverage across 4G/LTE/5G, UMTS/HSPA+, and GSM/GPRS/EDGE networks. These devices represent a game-changing advancement in overt and covert remote monitoring, with a particular emphasis on the latter, unrestricted by common limitations such as range and signal loss associated with traditional VHF/UHF audio surveillance devices.
- The GR-SATX offers an unparalleled range, with cutting-edge technology that sets it apart from previous audio surveillance devices available in the market. Unlike earlier products that operate on 2G networks, the GR-SATX uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon Processor and Quectel module to provide 5G/4G Cellular, GPRS, GSM, and LTE connectivity. Furthermore, a custom flex antenna allows this transmitter to operate even underground.
- Embedded modules enable remote triggering of the extremely sensitive Knowles microphone via a call, anywhere there is a 5G/4G network. In areas where 5G is unavailable, the GR-SATX can fall back to 4G.
- This device includes an embedded voltage regulator to ensure consistent battery draw, an internal rechargeable 5000mAh Lithium-Ion battery rechargeable via an embedded USB-C port, and an embedded SIM with pre-provisioned network access.
- The GR-SATX is designed for rapid deployment and is ready to use straight out of the box. There is no need for software or hardware configuration by the user. Activation is achieved through a receiver, which is typically a mobile phone, eliminating the need for third-party receiving systems or a dedicated radio transceiver.
- Integrated DSP (Digital Sound Processor) system
- The cellular connection established between the receiving end and the GR-SATX is encrypted via VPN tunnels. The encryption method is accomplished through a physical dedicated IC chip on the actual transmitter, an STSAFE secure element injected with keys and certificates at the point of manufacture.
- The GR-SATX is virtually undetectable, as it does not emit any RF signature when idle, making it extremely challenging to detect during sweeps. Additionally, there are no LED indicators or any visible signs of operation, further increasing its covert capabilities. Due to its thin and compact form factor, the GR-SATX is highly concealable, making it an ideal candidate for covert placement and disguised finishes.
Connectivity & Service
The GR-SATX's advanced technology enables real-time remote access to live audio, ensuring that users can receive audio transmissions from a vast distance in real-time. With this device, users can monitor audio transmissions in real-time and listen to everything that the transmitter picks up, providing unparalleled access to audio surveillance data.
Operational range provided by the GR-SATX
To provide context, the remarkable range of the GR-SATX (available in both overt and covert finishes) enables it to be deployed in a property situated in Bend, Oregon and seamlessly transmit live audio to the receiving end in Coral Springs, Florida, a staggering distance of 2,939 miles (4,730 kilometers). Additionally, due to its reliance on cutting-edge 5G/4G connectivity, this device can also facilitate real-time audio transmission between two countries located on opposite sides of the globe.
The GR-SATX is the pinnacle of discreet, efficient, and expeditious audio surveillance technology. It has been developed in close collaboration with numerous agencies, with a specific emphasis on serving the needs of law enforcement agencies. GR-SATX is an intuitive and easy-to-use device for audio surveillance, with remote live listening, simply call the number provided with your device (for non-provisioned models, call the number of the SIM card inserted) to immediately activate the microphone and start monitoring what is happening in the surrounding area. Moreover, a dedicated, secure dashboard is slated to be made available in the near future, providing a suite of powerful tools, including remote device control and automatic recording of intercepted audio.
