TransitHound-PoE™ railway distraction detector identifies unauthorized cell phone use in any train locomotive, dispatch station or railway cab. This sensitive receiver system detects all cellular 3G/4G/5G devices (non-mm wave frequencies) use by distracted train engineers, drivers and any operators of heavy machinery for enhanced railway safety.
TransitHound-PoE™ railway distraction detector identifies unauthorized cell phone use in any train locomotive, dispatch station or railway cab. This sensitive receiver system detects all cellular 3G/4G/5G devices (non-mm wave frequencies) use by distracted train engineers, drivers and any operators of heavy machinery for enhanced railway safety. When connected to any railway locomotive’s ethernet network, TransitHound-PoE sends and receives data and power respectively over ethernet becoming a vital component in PTC (Positive Train Control) safety systems. TransitHound-PoE allows owners, dispatchers and managers to create timestamped alerts and triggers for video or still recording of the distracting incident. TransitHound-PoE detects any voice, text or cellular data within the cab, train locomotive or depot station.
Perfect for distracted train engineers and railway operators as well as distracted driving in fleets, mining operation and heavy machinery workers for improved railway safety
Discreet & rugged for mounting anywhere inside a cab, train locomotive, cockpit or truck
Power over ethernet delivers power and timestamped, recorded measurements for further analysis
Trigger relays to any DVR, camera or alert instantly
Designed & manufactured entirely in the USA
All products include standard 1 year hardware warranty.

F.A.Q.
Can the TransitHound-PoE be used to locate cell phones?
No, because TransitHound-PoE is usually deployed in a fixed position, it precludes the possibility to “triangulate” and locate the source of RF signals. By contrast, a hand-held cell detector like the Wolfhound-PRO can locate cellphones by taking two or more bearings (or, Lines of Position) of the source.
Can the TransitHound-PoE run out of power?
No, because the TransitHound-PoE does not use batteries, it derives its power externally from the same ethernet network it is connected to.
Can the TransitHound-PoE store data?
TransitHound stores no data except for measurement threshold settings.
What kind of antenna is used by the TransitHound-PoE?
TransitHound-PoE can be deployed either with an included omni-directional or optional directional antenna. TransitHound antennas are typically hidden somewhere in the cab or vehicle and connected to the unit via hidden cabling.
Does the TransitHound-PoE provide audible or visual alerts ?
The unit itself does not but TransitHound-PoE can be connected directly to a variety of audible and visual alerts including a camera and DVR for video and time stamping all cellular activity events.
Does TransitHound-PoE identify callers or their phone numbers?
No. TransitHound-PoE is a simple, low-cost RF scanning device that simply triggers when nearby cellphone activity is detected. It does not demodulate, intercept nor communicate with any cellular devices.
