A RCIED or Remote Controlled Improvised Explosive Device has become a more common threat and needs a reliable deterrent. With the threat of terrorist attacks at home and abroad, technology is being employed to make the world a safer place. Bombs, or explosive devices that can be detonated by remote control, are an increasing threat as terrorists become more technically sophisticated. Protection from these devices is an increasing need, and RCIED Jammers designed to stop the signal before it can detonate an explosive devise, are meeting that need. These bombs can be placed days or weeks in advance and go undetected until they are remotely exploded by their operator. The use for RCIED Jammers by the military is obvious, but others have also become targets for these terrorist devises. Everyone from government officials to leaders in Industry is subject to attack. While not used exclusively by the military, their use is restricted to those licensed by the United States Department of State. Other permits may be necessary for use outside of the United States. Law enforcement at all levels, from HomeLand Security, to local municipalities, has found a RCIED Jammer can have a large impact on preventing crime and saving lives. Places like municipal facilities, or public utilities, are also at risk. Even public gatherings of innocent civilians have become targets. Highways where critical convoys must pass, are one of the most common targets of these remotely detonated devices. A vehicle equipped with a convoy protection Jammer, cruising with, or parked in the vicinity of a target, can neutralize the signal to the bomb, and save lives and property. Criminals have also been using these remote controlled explosive devices to aid in their illegal activities. RCIED Jammers come in different sizes and configurations but they are all designed to stop a remote signal before it can reach an explosive devise. Some systems are small enough to be mounted in a vehicle and can be used while in motion. They can detect and stop signals before a RCIED can be detonated within range to injure persons or property. Using a variety of jamming frequencies, and the latest technology for other methods of blocking radio signals, the operators can stop incoming signals without interfering with other communications, or being detected by the operator of the RCIED. Its range is not measured in distance, as it can be remotely operated. A RCIED Jammer is capable of saving lives and preventing damage to vehicles and buildings. While its use is strictly regulated, those who have need of it, and are approved for its use, will find it is money well spent.
