With prisons running at 107% of capacity and 4.8 million probation and parole offenders, States and Municipalities are looking for ways to reduce the costs of incarceration for non-violent offenders or those awaiting court appearances.  Similarly, Alarm Monitoring Central Station operators are looking for additional monitoring revenue streams from new services.

The AES-IntelliGuard 7479 transceiver monitors low risk offenders in their homes utilizing an existing AES-IntelliNet network. With IntelliGuard, the individual enrolled in the home arrest program is continually monitored via radio transmitter connected to the wrist, which reports presence or absence of the person in the home.

The 7479transceiver sends data from the offender's wristband transmitter through the AES-IntelliNet wireless network to a central location. If the subject, wearing the bracelet unit leaves the monitoring range, a message is sent to the central monitoring station and corrections authorities respond to the violation.

Key Capabilities:

• Tamper alerts
• Out of allowed range alert
• Remotely programmable
• Daily automated self tests
• AC Power interrupt alert
• Low battery alert
• Work time absence allowances

The IntelliGuard 7479 includes:

• 7479 Transceiver Unit – Installed at the home and communicates with the bracelet and the AES-IntelliNet wide area network.
• 7471 Bracelet Transmitter – Fits to the wrist or ankle of the subject being monitored and communicates with the 7470 transceiver.
