Thus, the passive 4G LTE and 5G IMSI Catcher PBIC can be seen as a passive IMSI Detector as it only detects the IMSI, TMSI or IMEI. The PBIC broadcasts a signal to all 4G and 5G devices with a specific command to which these 4G and 5G devices respond. The 4G and 5G devices in the target area when they respond to the PBIC IMSI Catcher – Detector share only their IMSI, TMSI or IMEI identifiers.

At X-Surveillance – passive means it does not intercept any conversations (calls – messages) or other privacy-sensitive communicative data. It only catches / detects the IMSI, TMSI, IMEI and other device related attributes.

The passive 4G LTE and 5G IMSI Catcher (Detector) PBIC have been developed in such a way that they function in close proximity with a distance of 1 meter to 50 meters, precisely with the concept that the targeted device can be searched specifically.

PBIC – IMSI Catcher Detector

During the development of the PBIC IMSI Catcher / Detector, Privacy-By-Default was central. As a result, a ‘passive IMSI Catcher / Detector’ was chosen, which means that no privacy-sensitive data is intercepted. Only the wireless device / cellular device related attributes and identifiers such as the IMSI, IMEI, TMSI, MCC, MNC, RSSI, etc.

This enables the X-Surveillance PBIC to detect and identify 4G LTE + 5G-Ready phones. Interested to know more, contact us.

To receive as little “noise” as possible. At the same time, to track down, identify, verify or correlate suspects as specifically as possible, we advise our users to operate as Close Proximity as possible.

Close Proximity application is available for both GSM IMSI Catcher, 4G LTE IMSI Catcher and 5G IMSI Catcher.
