A device, system and method for monitoring a cable for a physical disturbance is disclosed. The device includes at least one pair of acoustic transducers, the pair comprising a first acoustic conductor monitoring transducer and a second ambient transducer. The acoustic conductor monitoring transducer is in acoustic contact with an acoustic conductor to be monitored by the device, with the transducers being arranged such that an ambient acoustic signal is common to both transducers. The device further includes a circuit element, with each transducer being connected to an input of the circuit element, the circuit element being arranged to output a difference between the input signals from the transducers. An alarm triggering module is connected to an output of the circuit element, the module being operable to trigger an alarm when the output signal received from the circuit element exceeds a predefined threshold value. |
