Wi-Fi Power Analyzer

Berkeley's Wi-Fi Power Analyzer is a low-cost, handheld sweeping receiver designed for 802.11(b,a,g) Wi-Fi frequency & power measurements. The receiver attaches directly to an Access Point, bridger or Network Interface Card via the included SMA antenna connection kit. The unit has a unique triggering capability to measure both 2.4 and 5 GHz frequency bands to verify & analyze output 802.11 packet power levels, report their channel and frequency and create an 802.11 power profile. Technicians can measure power from an array of standard 802.11 network gear as well as other wireless devices including Bluetooth, Zigbee™, cordless phones, VoIP, video transmitters, etc. Other features include a built-in backlit display, PC connection via USB (optional software available) and removable, rechargeable Ni-MH batteries for true portability.
