Today, record increases in the number of non-violent criminal offenders are putting a strain on overcrowded jails, prisons, and entire judicial systems. An electronic monitoring solution may be the answer. The Omnilink OM500, a Sierra Wireless Solution, is a next-generation offender monitoring device that improves efficiencies in monitoring and tracking criminal offenders and at-risk persons of interest. The OM500 is a secure rugged ankle bracelet that is waterproof and provides reliable near real-time location data. It features:
- a lightweight, compact design,
- engineering that enables it to run on the most advanced LTE CAT1 cellular networks,
- a quick and easy "no tool" installation with an industry-leading reusable and adjustable strap,
- robust tamper detection features to reduce false alerts, a state-of-the-art rapid charge battery system with a foolproof magnet charger that can swivel 360 degrees,
- and the ability to utilize both advanced GPS and Wi-Fi in combination with motion detection for improved mapping while reducing drift.
In addition, the OM500 features a unique patented design that allows agencies to send high-quality voice commands to the offender without the use of a speaker, alerting the offender in specific situations such as entering a restricted area or failing to charge their device.
Agencies can also send custom messages to the offender to remind them of court dates or provide positive reinforcement. Messages can be sent in multiple languages and acknowledged by the wearer using an advanced touch sensor. Today's agencies don't just supervise offenders from an office desk, which is why Omnilink has an industry-leading mobile app for monitoring offenders from virtually anywhere, reducing downtime and improving efficiency. The FocalPoint application can be securely accessed from a smartphone, tablet, or computer allowing officers to quickly and easily view and manage their entire caseload at a glance.

Don't rely on outdated methods to track offenders.
