Ajax Glass Protect (8IN) – Advanced Wireless Glass Break Detector
The Ajax Glass Protect (8IN) is a wireless glass break detector that uses a high-sensitivity electret microphone to recognize the specific sound pattern of breaking glass. Designed for indoor use, it reliably detects glass break events from up to 9 meters away with a wide 180° detection angle, making it ideal for protecting rooms with large windows or glass surfaces. The detector quickly communicates any breach to the Ajax hub using secure wireless technology, providing fast and accurate intrusion alerts without false alarms from everyday sounds.
