Securing Tomorrow’s Future
Welcoming your interest , we would like to introduce of our products including the development background.
The purpose of PIDS (Perimeter Intrusion Detection System) is to surely detect any possible intrusion which
may happen very rare but likely by highly skilled terrorist like Al-Qaeda. The facilities buy the PIDS not only to
absolutely protect from intrusion but also to have peace in mind like when buying an insurance. The PIDS that
does not guarantee to alarm at actual intrusion or put out nuisance alarms is actually of no security effect to
have the site remain vulnerable to intrusion and waste resources.
There exist about forty intrusion sensors over the world which can be classified as vibration sensor, EM
(Electro-Magnetic) field sensor and taut wire sensor. Vibration sensors are mounted to fence fabric and detect
cutting through fence fabric but unable to detect climbing over from a shoulder /ladder without touching the
fence fabric and put out numerous nuisance alarms seriously being affected by wind, rain, flying debris,
animals, thunder, moving vehicles etc., or loose/deteriorate sensitivity at bad weather and harsh terrain
condition. EM field sensors also put out numerous nuisance alarms or loose/deteriorate sensitivity being
seriously affected by wind, rain, haze, trees, animals, lightning, power lines etc. Taut Wire sensors are not free
from nuisance alarming being intrinsically affected by terrain condition and storm, thunder, moving vehicles
and expose a number of weaknesses due to which the system be vulnerable to defeat by intruder.
Throughout worldwide installations at eminent facilities such as Korean Nuclear Power Plants, Airports,
Oil&Gas Reservoirs, Korea Presidential House, Singapore Ministry of Defense, ISTANA, Kuwait MoFA, Saudi
ARAMCO/MODA, FOSM (Fiber Optic Security Mesh) has been reputed. as the unique foolproof – accurate –
nuisance alarm free to comply with the purpose of PIDS overcoming the weakness and limitation of other types
of sensors performing as :
•Zero nuisance alarm due to the environmental effects
•100% fool-proof detection of intrusion
• Pinpoint the intrusion location with ± 15 meter typically (± 3 meter possible)
• Negligible Maintenance with no field equipment
• Versatile application
• Accept IR Sensors at the Main Gate
FOSM operates based on Optical Radar Technology. The system injects Infrared Laser pulses into FOM (Fiber
Optic Mesh) to identify intrusion from the presence of abnormal Optical echoes caused by either intruder
cutting or excess force and pinpoints the intrusion spot on the monitor with audible & visible alarm at Security
Control Center. The fundamental technologies of FOSM was invented by Dr. Youn Bae in 1982 while serving as
a researcher at Korea Agency for Defense Development (ADD) and later far upgraded gradually to the current
level of commercial version by Fibertron Co., Ltd. www.fibertron.co.kr over 30 years.
In 2012 to differentiate from the previous ‘FOMGuard’ which was confused by the companies ( Z-Inc., F-Inc., HInc.) cheated the security society as the inventor and the installer, Fibertron renamed the upgraded as ‘FOM
Sensor’ or ‘Fiber Optic Security Mesh (FOSM)’ and registered the technology under US patent #US8,325,038B2
in DEC 2012. Recently as extended application of FOSM , Fibertron also developed three forms of SW
(Sensing Wire Net) products that offers our customers with an alternative perimeter intrusions detection
that is cost effective and FOSS (Fiber Optic Stress Sensor) that provides a variety of highly reliable
detection of intrusion on the ground, disturbances to concertina coil, lifting of chains or cables on seabed,
flood detection and marine barrier crash impact detection etc.

FOSM(Fiber Optic Security Mesh
FOSM can be constructed and
implemented in a variety of
situations, environments, structures,
barriers and perimeters etc. FOSM
can be mounted on top of a wall
structure, overlaid to an existing
fence, erected from the ground.
With a level of detection accuracy
and virtually zero nuisance alarm
occurrences, FOSM provides a level
of protection for facilities that is
unmatched in the industry. Please
refer to our FOSM catalogue for
detailed technical specifications
SWN(Sensing Wire Net)
SWN is constructed using woven strands of tiny
steel wires with rhombic opening to stretch or
shrink to detect intrusion. SWN can easily be
mounted or constructed alongside a variety of
structures to detect intrusion. SWN can be
mounted along the sides of a bridge to detect and
prevent suicides or below extruded trees to
detect and prevent intrusions or on top of
existing fences to prevent intruders from scaling.
Please refer to our SWN catalogue for detailed
technical specifications

FOSS(Fiber Optic Stress Sensor)
FOSS – Marine Barrier Crash Impact Detection
Metal Pipe
FOSC
Fiber Optic Sensor Cable
FOSS can be implemented to marine barrier structures to detect intrusion. A fiber optic sensor cable is built and laid
within the barrier’s core, which is connected to an Optical Intrusion Alarm. Any impact or disturbances to any of the
barrier segments will trigger a detection to the FOSS, resulting in an alarm on the Optical Intrusion Alarm.
FOSS & FOSM – Underwater Intrusion Detection
Our Locations
FOSS can also be constructed alongside FOSM to create an unique underwater
intrusion detection system to prevent authorized underwater intrusion by divers,
submarines etc. The FOSS is anchored to the seabed floor, which will trigger an alarm
when being lifted by intruders underwater.
FOSS(Fiber Optic Stress Sensor)
FOSS – Pipeline Protection
FOSS can also be implemented to protect pipelines
that span over vast distances. FOSS is buried along
the sides of the pipelines to detect unauthorized
close proximity to the pipeline itself to prevent
pilferage or acts of sabotage.
FOSS – Concertina Coils
FOSS can be mounted on top of
existing concertina to detect intrusion.
Regardless of whether the concertina
is constructed on the ground or above
an existing fence, FOSS can accurately
detect intrusion via disturbances
cause to the FOSS. Intrusion can be
accurately detected to within 25
meters of the actual point of intrusion.
