A truck driver at a container terminal suddenly loses GPS signal – a practical scenario illustrating jammer devices for cargo theft prevention. These electronic units deliberately block radio frequency signals (GPS, cellular, telematics) to prevent thieves from tracking and tampering with freight shipments. Mounted on vehicles or cargo itself, they represent a growing security concern in international transport, as they disrupt not only criminal tracking but also legitimate logistics communications.
