HE MANUFACTURER

This groundbreaking technology uses a transmitted signal that is spread over a wide frequency band and the transmitter abruptly changes (or hops) the
frequency in accord
any of the transmitters currently marketed in the US and in most case 56X the power. We are using 560K uV/m in contrast t
to 20K uV/m. The result is that our range is extended up to 1.25 miles. The FCC allows massive power usage because the spread spectrum technology
makes it possible for many transmitters to communicate without interfering with each other.

For the first time in the history of the auto security industry, Firstech has achieved a remarkable technological break-through in utilizing a FCC-approved
Spread Spectrum and 900 Mhz Technology.
