Pure Passive Downlink Capture Covert receive‑only interception of base‑station down‑link signals; no RF transmission to avoid detection by target mobile devices.
4G LTE & 5G NR Decryption Matches over‑the‑air captured traffic with core‑network cryptographic keys to restore voice, SMS and internet‑session content.
Core‑Network Key Extraction Retrieves cryptographic material via S1 / S6a MME interfaces to feed the local decryption‑server module.
Built‑In Secure VPN Transport Gigabit‑grade embedded VPN for encrypted remote transmission of collected intelligence towards backend analysis‑nodes.
Dual‑Mode Operation Switch between mass‑network‑wide monitoring or focused targeted‑subscriber tracking with terminal‑parameter collection.
Scalable Target Capacity Target‑control and analytics resources can be horizontally scaled to adapt to varying‑scale field‑mission requirements.
Vehicle‑Deployed Hardware Compact rack‑style interception unit optimized for vehicle‑mounted tactical reconnaissance deployments.
Full Traffic Logging & Analysis Record complete intercepted mobile‑traffic metadata and content for post‑mission review and intelligence‑processing workflows.
