Deciding between 1st generation and 2nd generation anti-cheat devices depends on your threat profile and budget. This guide compares the two generations.
Generation 1 Overview
The Gen1 device covers 1-1.5 meters and provides core protection against signal injection and cheat code exploitation. It is designed for smaller venues, compact machine layouts, and operators on a budget. It is lighter, more compact, and lower cost than the Gen2.
Generation 2 Overview
The Gen2 device covers 2.5-3 meters with expanded frequency range and faster response time. It provides the same core protection as the Gen1 plus improved detection of EMP pulses and broadband attacks. It includes enhanced event logging with more detailed attack information.
When to Choose Gen1
Small venues with machines spaced closely together. Single machine protection. Budget-constrained purchases. Secondary protection layer alongside Gen2 devices.
When to Choose Gen2
Medium to large venues. Machines spaced further apart. High-cheating regions where EMP and broadband attacks are documented. Operators who want the best available protection.
