Tecore Delivers Legally Compliant Intelligent Jamming to U.S. Correctional Facilities
IntelliJAM™ Featured at CLA 2025 Technology Conference; Backed by more than 20 Patents and Over a Decade of Proven Deployments
HANOVER, Md., March 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Tecore Networks, the inventor of managed access technology (MAS) and a leader in the combat of contraband cellphone use in correctional and secured facilities, is showcasing its advanced IntelliJAM™ platform at the Correctional Leaders Association (CLA) 2025 Technology Conference, being held today in Charleston, SC. Attendees are invited to visit Booth 51 for demonstrations and discussions with the Tecore team.
With over a decade of operational deployment, IntelliJAM is the most comprehensive, legally compliant intelligent jamming technology in use today—delivering real-time signal control, selective access, E911 support, and advanced analytics in a single, integrated platform. Backed by over 20 patents, Tecore's innovations are engineered to combat contraband cellphone threats while maintaining compliance and connectivity for authorized users.
The newly proposed Cellphone Jamming Reform Act of 2025—introduced by Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) and Congressman David Kustoff (R-TN)—seeks to obtain authority for jamming. Such measures may face delays and resistance due to concerns around potential interference with public safety, impacts to nearby residential real-estate, commercial businesses, and broader liability risks. However, Tecore's IntelliJAM is already industry compliant and engineered to support multiple jamming methods activated with a simple software configuration.
Unlike sweeping jamming approaches, IntelliJAM is precision-targeted to operate without affecting surrounding public coverage and is effective in both indoor and outdoor environments, including housing units and courtyards of correctional facilities.
"The technology since we first introduced this bill has increased greatly down to very precise targeting," Senator Cotton stated in a recent press conference.
Congressman Kustoff added, "I think we can all agree that if people lawfully have a cellphone, they should be entitled and be able to use and get a signal. The programming with some technology is you can program lawful numbers from within a prison or a jail that can make or receive calls. But if there is a contraband cellphone, and obviously that number is not authorized, it doesn't get a signal. So the technology has advanced a lot over the last several years. It will continue to advance and the fact that you can protect the innocent people, those who should be able to lawfully use cell phones and not harm them - to me makes this issue a no brainer."
"Identify people who are in jails or prisons, guards other personal who lawfully have the right to be able use their phone, allow them to have access and essentially cancel out the contraband cell phones, that protects everyone," Congressman Kustoff stated.
Key Capabilities of IntelliJAM Include:
- Selective Access Management: Blocks contraband cellphones while maintaining secure access for staff, first responders, and designated users.
- Legally Compliant Intelligent Jamming: Localized, facility-contained signal control that preserves access for authorized personnel and emergency services.
- Legally Compliant E911 Functionality: Supports emergency call routing in accordance with current regulatory standards.
- Stakeholder-Aligned Interoperability: Designed in collaboration with all key wireless stakeholders for secure, authenticated device management and system integrity.
- Proven Deployment Across U.S. Correctional Facilities: In operation for over 15 years with consistent, complaint-based results.
- Patent-Driven Innovation: Backed by more than 20 patents specific to intelligent jamming, analytics, and lawful control protocols.
- Real-Time Intelligence and Analytics: Captures call patterns, text activity, locations, and behavioral insights to detect and investigate criminal activity.
- Software-Driven Flexibility: Easily configured to support "jam-all" strategies where legally authorized—without the need for infrastructure overhaul.
IntelliJAM unifies jamming control and actionable intelligence in one system—empowering facilities to not only block illicit cellular activity, but also to combat broader patterns of contraband use, gang coordination, and criminal activity through analytics-based intervention.
"Recognizing the unique security challenges correctional institutions face," said Bipin Noble, Vice President of Business Development at Tecore Networks, "we designed IntelliJAM to deliver not only an immediate solution to contraband cellphone use but also a robust intelligence platform to combat threats proactively. Our system equips facilities with real-time insights while remaining flexible enough to integrate future policy changes without operational burden."
Tecore Networks remains at the forefront of public safety innovation—committed to providing trusted, scalable, and compliant wireless control technologies for the nation's most secure environments.
