Police believe a string of nine robberies in Edina have used this tech.

    So this is for wifi enable devices, can they still do those on wired ones?

      Not with radio jamming, but with an EMP you can disable wired devices too .

        Thanks for replying. I am going to install some wired cameras.

        Well, an emp is so.ething to be worried, nor usual but it could happen. Maybe a Faraday cage could help minimize the impact.

          There is shielded cable available. The U in UTP cable stands for unshielded for example.

            I was thinking of my ups and the dvr for the cameras. But yes.

        A spray paint or masking tape will have better, immediate effect.
