AJAX OPTEX FTN-R: Compact Outdoor Wireless Curtain PIR

The AJAX OPTEX FTN-R is a compact, battery-powered outdoor PIR detector designed to create a specialized “curtain” detection zone. With a 5-meter range, it is the ideal solution for protecting narrow paths, balconies, or specific entry points like windows and doors.

Integrated with an AJAX Transmitter (TX), this device connects seamlessly to your AJAX Hub, offering professional-grade Optex optics with the smart, user-friendly control of the AJAX ecosystem.

Key Features & Benefits

• 5m Curtain Detection: Projects a narrow, long-range beam that creates an invisible wall of protection. Perfect for “boundary” security where you only want to detect someone standing directly in front of an opening.

• 180° Swivel Body: The sensor head can be rotated horizontally by 180 degrees, allowing you to angle the curtain precisely where it’s needed, even if the mounting surface isn’t perfectly aligned.

• Pet-Friendly Logic: Intelligent multi-layered detection ensures that small animals or birds don’t trigger the alarm, focusing specifically on human-sized heat signatures.

• Digital Dual-Layer Detection: Uses both upper and lower detection areas that must be triggered simultaneously to verify a real threat, significantly reducing false alarms from moving vegetation.

• Seamless AJAX Connectivity: Comes pre-installed with the AJAX TX, enabling encrypted, long-range communication via the Jeweller protocol for instant mobile alerts.

Why Choose the FTN-R?

The FTN-R is the “precision tool” of outdoor security. While larger sensors cover wide yards, the FTN-R is designed for specific, high-risk areas. Its small form factor makes it discreet and easy to install on window frames or narrow porch pillars without being intrusive.

Ideal for: Residential windows, apartment balconies, narrow alleyways, and guarding high-value assets like air conditioning units or tool sheds.
