In secure facilities such as military bases and SCIFs, protecting sensitive and classified information is a top priority. As technology continues to evolve, new threats emerge that require specialized solutions. One such solution is RF shielded lockers. These lockers are designed to block all radio frequency signals, preventing devices stored inside from sending or receiving any data. Unshielded Lockers Pose a Risk The main problem with standard cell phone and mobile device storage lockers is the fact that they do not block RF signals. This may be sufficient for schools and some offices, but it is not sufficient for high-level...

Do You Need a Faraday Bag? A faraday bag, also known as a faraday cage or faraday pouch, is a type of shielding device or enclosure made of metallic materials that blocks the passage of electromagnetic fields (EMF). When an electromagnetic field, such as a radio wave or an electrical current, comes into contact with the faraday bag, the metallic material absorbs the energy and prevents it from passing through to the inside of the bag. This is because the electrons in the metallic material flow freely and can absorb the energy of the electromagnetic field. Faraday bags are used...

Do you know that 5G mobile technology uses radio frequency (RF) energy to create a short-range unlicensed wireless access point? RF energy seems to be quite harmful to our health. This blog aims to educate you on the health implications of 5G and why shielding is important. The electromagnetic radiation (EMR) or electromagnetic fields (EMF) emitted from cell phones and mobile devices have been linked to many health problems. By shielding your mobile devices and electronic equipment, you can protect yourself, your family, and your employees against these forms of wireless communication radiation. How Do High RF Levels Affect Our...

In the last decade, many electricity providers have opted to use smart meters to measure power usage. The desire to get accurate readings remotely and continuously has merit; it can provide savings to both the power company and consumer, and allow for more energy usage optimization. However, there is concern regarding the process of sending this information to your provider. The solution often requires using radio frequencies to wirelessly communicate with wifi, cell towers, etc. Continuous RF emissions and the impact on consumer health has been a frequent topic of debate in the smart meter industry. Daniel Hirsch, a former...
