Overview
Real AM protection at the bottom of the Sensormatic price list.
Single-store operators and franchise owners don't always have the budget for Ultra-Post or Ultra-Exit. The Essentials pedestal strips back the feature set — no traffic analytics, no Metal-Foil Detection — but keeps the detection performance and runs on an ordinary A/C outlet.

- < 50 W/hour power draw
- Blue (standard) or red (optional) alarm LED
