OUR SECURE, SMART, AND RELIABLE UNDERGROUND INFRASTRUCTURE MONITORING

The Manhole Intrusion Detection System is a durable, intelligent NB-IoT device engineered to provide continuous underground surveillance, instant tamper alarms, and cloud visibility for power utilities, telecom operators, and smart city networks.

By combining high-sensitivity tilt and optical displacement sensors with long-range NB-IoT wireless transmission, the system pierces thick cast-iron covers and subterranean vault walls to alert central operations immediately whenever an unauthorized opening occurs.

Core Engineering Pillars

Instant Tamper Alarms

Detects cover lifting, displacement, tilt, or vibrations in real time, triggering instant alerts to security and dispatch personnel.

10-Year Autonomous Battery

Powered by a high-capacity primary lithium battery pack with ultra-low sleep current, delivering up to 10 years of maintenance-free field life.

IP68 Submersible Ingress

Hermetically sealed against prolonged water submersion, road salt, corrosive sewer gases, mud, and extreme temperatures.

Subterranean NB-IoT Backhaul

Low-power, high-gain narrow-band cellular links pierce subterranean vaults and heavy metallic lids without requiring external street cabling.

AWS & Azure Cloud Ingestion

Secure encrypted event backhaul via standard MQTT / XML payloads directly into utility SCADA, GIS mapping platforms, and mobile apps.

All alarms, precise timestamps, geolocation coordinates, and device health metrics stream directly into AWS, Azure, or central SCADA for complete operational visibility.

AWS & Azure Ready

Mobile Alerts & Field Dispatch

Field maintenance and rapid-response security personnel receive instantaneous push alerts and GPS navigation links to pinpoint the exact affected manhole chamber.

GPS Geotagged

Rugged, Long-Life Hardware

Engineered with an IP68-sealed housing rated for prolonged immersion, toxic gas exposure, and industrial vibrations, powered by a 10-year replaceable lithium cell.

IP68 Submersible

Secure NB-IoT Communication

Narrow-band IoT operates with deep subterranean signal penetration (+20dB gain over standard cellular) ensuring uncompromised communication under road asphalt.

3GPP Narrow-Band

Advanced Analytics & Reporting

Generates comprehensive historical incident logs, route intrusion heatmaps, battery longevity predictions, and automated compliance reports for municipal audits.
