The four ECM batteries are Ion Field Projection Battery (MAGNET, Gallente), Phase Inversion Battery (LADAR, Minmatar), Spatial Destabilization Battery (GRAV, Caldari) and White Noise Generation Battery (RADAR, Amarr).  They have an optimal range of 200km with a jam strength of 15.00.  Player ships like the Blackbird, Kitsune, Falcon, and Scorpion have jam strengths in the 6.00 to 10.00 range.  This module must be mounted '''outside''' the POS bubble.

Faction ECM is recommended for large towers in hostile environments to ensure jamming on enemy battleships.  At a minimum, a medium tower should have (2) of each type and a large tower will probably want (4) of each type.  If a large tower will be actively defended by players (POS gunners) taking control of the defenses, then you may wish to mount additional spares of each type.  For more details, see the [[Example POS Setups]] page.  Small towers can be fitted with (2) of each type, but in most cases you should take a small POS down if you are under threat of a wardec.
