The RFeye Node 100-18 offers class-leading RF performance for advanced capability, real-time spectrum operations or deployment on any spectrum critical site.
The RFeye Node 100-18 offers the capabilities of the Node 50-8 but with extended instantaneous bandwidth of 100 MHz and frequency range up to 18 GHz. Like the other RFeye Nodes in the family, it is a complete spectrum monitoring and geolocation system designed for remote deployment in distributed networks both indoors and outdoors, including in hostile environments. Packaged in a compact, rugged and a weatherproof housing, it has been optimized for size, weight and power (SWaP) and is simple to connect to power and network.
The Node 100-18 is characterized by outstanding phase noise, noise figure, channel retune time and spurious free dynamic range parameters, well above any other product in its class. Its multi-mission capability allows multiple concurrent measurements and geolocations to be performed and multiple users to connect simultaneously from remote locations. The Node 100-18 includes an on-board SSD for logging large data sets.
