to strike the right balance: protecting passengers, employees and critical assets while growing operations and revenue. As the volume of commercial flights continues to escalate worldwide , reinforcement of an airport’s perimeter becomes an increasingly important requirement, as does the focus on traffic safety.

Southwest Microwave’s array of technology solutions reliably address these issues while successfully mitigating the environmental challenges that exist in an airport environment. 

Our fence, buried cable and microwave detection systems have been deployed at hundreds of airports worldwide to prevent unauthorized access to critical areas and are proven to deliver high performance intrusion detection while successfully filtering out extreme weather, vehicle / aircraft vibration and radar interference.  Our advanced stop bar control sensors detect aircraft and vehicle movement from taxiway to active runway, reinforcing traditional safety equipment at holding points to minimize incursion risk on the airfield.

Southwest Microwave sensors have undergone rigorous qualification, evaluation and testing by the U.S. National Safe Skies Alliance. Contact your Southwest Microwave representative for more information on these testing initiatives.
