Cut
Any attempt to cut the cable triggers a loud alarm instantly—making theft difficult and drawing attention before the product can leave the store.
Exit
Passing through active detection zones automatically triggers the Lanyard Tag’s alarm, alerting staff that a protected item is leaving the store without proper deactivation.
