Faraday Defense Faraday Dry Bag Backpack Stealth Black | 85-90 dB

The Faraday Dry Bag Backpack Carries Your Laptop, Tablet and Radios Behind Three Layers of CYBER NC Shielding and a Roll-Top Seal

The Faraday Dry Bag Backpack in Stealth Black is a roll-top backpack lined with three layers of CYBER NC (nickel/copper) shielding fabric. Faraday Defense rates it at 85-90 dB of attenuation. The outside is puncture-resistant, water-repelling tarpaulin, and the top closes with a double roll and dual-clip closure that Faraday Defense says forms a water-tight seal.

It's built for transporting and storing sensitive, high-value electronics such as laptops, tablets and radios. Faraday Defense designed it for military, police departments, forensic investigators, government and executive travel, personal data security and signal isolation. Closed, it measures 16 x 11 x 6 in.

Faraday Dry Bag Backpack Features

Three Layers of CYBER NC Fabric

The interior is lined with three layers of metal-plated fabric containing nickel and copper shielding elements. Faraday Defense says the lining dissipates signals from both outside and inside sources and blocks communication to and from your devices, with 85-90 dB of attenuation.

Blocks Common Wireless Signals

Faraday Defense lists Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, cell signals (including 5G networks), GPS and RFID as blocked. It also describes the lining as providing RF/EMF shielding, location blocking and EMP protection.

Roll-Top With Dual-Clip Closure

Roll the top down twice and fasten the two clips. Faraday Defense describes this tight double roll and clip closure as what seals the bag for signal blocking and gives it a water-tight seal.

Puncture-Resistant Tarpaulin Exterior

The tarpaulin outer shell is puncture resistant and water repelling. Strong, reinforced seams add durability for daily carry and storage.

Expandable Main Compartment

The roomy interior fits laptops, tablets, radios and more. Closed, the bag measures 16 x 11 x 6 in, and the width expands out to 15 in for a closed size of 16 x 15 x 6 in. Unrolled, it stands 22 in high.

Padded Straps and Side Pockets

Padded shoulder straps, mesh padding on the back and multiple quick-release straps make it comfortable to carry. Two side pockets hold drinks or smaller gear.

Real-World Applications

Executive and government travel. Carry a laptop and tablet inside the shielded compartment, so the lining blocks signals to and from them while the bag is sealed.

Investigations and signal isolation. Faraday Defense designed the bag with police departments and forensic investigators in mind, for keeping devices isolated from wireless signals during transport.

Emergency preparedness. Store radios and spare electronics in the bag at home, inside the CYBER NC lining that Faraday Defense describes as providing EMP protection.

Wet-weather commutes. With the roll top sealed, the tarpaulin shell sheds rain on the walk or ride to work.

Practical Comparison

Faraday Dry Bag Backpack Versus a Standard Roll-Top Dry Bag

A standard dry bag is made to keep water out, but it doesn't block wireless signals. The Faraday Dry Bag Backpack adds three layers of CYBER NC fabric rated at 85-90 dB behind the same kind of roll-top closure.

Faraday Dry Bag Backpack Versus a Faraday Pouch in a Regular Backpack

A pouch shields one device at a time, and the backpack around it does nothing for water or signals. Here the whole main compartment is lined, so a laptop, tablet and radios share one shielded space inside a tarpaulin shell.

Buyer Guidance

Closing the Bag for Shielding

Shielding depends on the closure. Roll the top down twice and fasten both clips before you rely on it. The side pockets sit outside the lined main compartment, so keep anything you want shielded inside.

Testing the Bag

Put a phone inside, close the bag fully and call the phone. With the top rolled and clipped, the call shouldn't go through. If it does, unroll the top and close it again more carefully.

This May Be A Good Fit If

• You carry a laptop, tablet or radios you want shielded
• You want 85-90 dB of rated attenuation in a backpack
• You travel for work or government business
• You want a roll-top bag that handles wet weather

Common Questions

What Fits Inside?

Faraday Defense says the interior fits laptops, tablets, radios and more. Closed, the bag measures 16 x 11 x 6 in, and the width expands to 15 in. Measure larger laptops before you order.

How Much Signal Does It Block?

Faraday Defense rates the three CYBER NC layers at 85-90 dB of attenuation and lists Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, cell signals including 5G, GPS and RFID as blocked.

Can the Backpack Get Wet?

Faraday Defense describes the tarpaulin as water repelling and the roll closure as a water-tight seal, and it lists water-resistant construction. It doesn't say the bag can be submerged, so keep it out of standing water.

Does It Protect Against EMP?

Faraday Defense describes the CYBER NC lining as providing EMP protection and lists EMP protection among the bag's design purposes. It doesn't publish separate EMP test figures for this bag.
