Eliminating Range Anxiety: How INTERCEPTOR NX™ Delivers Scalable, Cost-Effective Network Security

When securing classified or mission-critical networks, scale should never come at the expense of performance. One of the most common challenges with traditional fiber optic sensing systems is “range anxiety”—the fear that signal degradation over long distances or across complex topologies will compromise security performance. INTERCEPTOR NX™ puts that fear to rest.

With an industry-leading dynamic range of 55dB for single-mode and 50dB for multimode, INTERCEPTOR NX delivers unmatched performance, even across vast deployments. This powerful capability is key to enabling our patented point-to-multipoint monitoring methodology, designed specifically to protect large and distributed environments with greater efficiency and significantly lower cost.

Point-to-Multipoint Monitoring: Smarter Architecture, Greater Reach

Unlike conventional systems that rely on one-to-one connections, INTERCEPTOR NX supports point-to-multipoint configurations that allow a single monitoring port to cover multiple cable routes or endpoints. That means you can secure multiple offices, workstations, or drops—with a single device. In large deployments, this can translate to hundreds of secure endpoints supported from just one INTERCEPTOR NX, slashing hardware requirements and infrastructure costs.

Topologies That Work for You

INTERCEPTOR NX’s patented point-to-multipoint flexibility supports a variety of network architectures, including:

• ✔ Hub-and-spoke configurations for centralized monitoring
• ✔ Daisy-chain setups for sequential connections across a facility
• ✔ Trunk fibers that loop back, enabling full-path coverage
• ✔ Multiple ducts in air-blown fiber systems, maximizing your infrastructure investment
• ✔ High-density cables with multiple fibers monitored independently

These topologies empower system designers with the freedom to customize protection strategies based on real-world environments—not system limitations. Whether you're securing a single building or an expansive campus, INTERCEPTOR NX adapts to your network, not the other way around.

More Coverage, Less Complexity

The benefits of point-to-multipoint monitoring go beyond reach and cost. With fewer devices to install and maintain, organizations benefit from simplified deployments, reduced power consumption, and lower overall system complexity—all without compromising on threat detection, reliability, or compliance.
