This GR-SATX unit offers a covert and discreet audio surveillance solution housed in a non-remarkable universal vehicle headrest. The headrest model is intended for discreet audio surveillance of assets or POI inside of vehicles. The housing has no exterior switches, antennas, or charging ports, all components are internally situated and built seamlessly into the structure of the headrest. The proximity of this covert transmitter's internal microphone to the head and mouth of a seated subject allows for excellent audio pickup and clarity. The unit is secured with a standard fitting that slides the headrest into virtually any vehicle, access to the internal electronics is via a built-in false cavity behind a seamless flap. There are three ways to gain access to the internal electronics. First, a biometric reader that uses your individual thumbprint or fingerprint. Second, a 4 to 8 digit passcode. Third, the tried and true method of a key. This false cavity cannot be felt by a user resting their head on the unit, it feels and operates the same as any other headrest in a vehicle. This model is intended to be placed within the target vehicle, the unit is purposely designed to appear non-remarkable and "boring". This model uses a different high-gain microphone with increased sensitivity.
*Secondary matching dummy headsets are available to match interior aesthetic of target vehicle. This model comes in different colors and finishes to meet the target vehicles color scheme (Black, brown, beige, tan, leather/cloth) Please reach out prior to ordering if you need assistance or kindly let us know in the order note which finish you'd like. We are committed to delivering a discreet and effective audio surveillance solution, ensuring the highest level of performance and security for your surveillance needs.
The GR-SATX is a state-of-the-art audio surveillance solution that addresses one of the most common challenges encountered when deploying such technology: operating range limitations. This device has undergone extensive research and development since the inception of our UHF transmitters, a culmination of nearly two years of dedicated effort. After rigorous testing of prototypes deployed worldwide over the past few months, we are delighted to announce that the GR-SATX is now available as the unparalleled audio surveillance solution. Designed to incorporate cutting-edge cellular connectivity technology, this advanced surveillance solution is the ultimate tool for clients seeking to maintain the highest levels of security and operational efficiency.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.
