Abstract:
1. A perimeter security system, comprising: A barrier; A series of sensors to the barrier at spaced locations along the length of the barrier, wherein the sensors are interconnected with a monitor at locations remote from the sensors, wherein each sensor includes a housing defining an interior within which a circuit arrangement including one or more sensing components is contained, wherein each sensor includes first and second connectors that are interconnected with the circuit arrangement; and a series of power and communication connection cables that extend between and connect adjacent sensors to each other and that connect the sensors to the monitor, wherein the power and communication connection cables are configured to transmit power and communication signals, and wherein the sensors and power and communication connection cables are configured and arranged such that one of the connection cables is secured to and extends between the first connector of a first one of the sensors and the second connector of a first adjacent one of the sensors, and another one of the power and communication connection cables is secured to extends between the second connector of the first sensor and the first connector of a second adjacent one of the sensors, wherein the power and communication signals are transmitted between the first and second connectors of each sensor through the circuit arrangement contained within housing interior of each sensor.
