Each Triton Pro sensor requires a direct connection to a PoE-enabled switch or injector using Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cabling.
The device must be connected to a live network with internet access to communicate with Triton Cloud. Refer to the firewall guide to ensure the network isn't blocking any sensor traffic.
Triton Cloud Firewall Guide / TroubleshootingStandard measurements based on 8.5 ft ceiling height
For every additional foot of ceiling height, reduce coverage by 2 feet in all directions
Extension poles available to lower sensor height in rooms with tall ceilings
Ceiling mounting is strongly recommended for optimal 360° coverage
Wall mounting not advised:
Limits detection to 180°
Recommended Coverage Areas (per sensor):
Vape Detection – 12 ft x 12 ft
Keyword Detection & Audio Analytics – 15 ft x 15 ft
Mount at least 30 inches away from:
Air vents
HVAC exhausts
Automatic air fresheners
Avoid placing sensors near obstructions such as cornered walls, which can reduce detection range and slow response times
The farther the vape event is from the sensor, the longer it will take to trigger an alert
In rooms larger than the recommended coverage area, place sensors strategically over stall areas where activity is most likely
Large or obstructed rooms may require multiple sensors for full coverage and accurate detection
