BumbleBee-LX Spectrum Analyzer
BumbleBee-LX™ is a rugged, handheld spectrum analyzer all-in-one system. The calibrated receiver measures popular wireless standards such as RFID, Cellular, PCS, Pulic Safety Band, SMR and even cordless phones that reside in frequencies 750-2000 MHz. BumbleBee-LX™ allows users to scan, display and record multiple RF waveforms for network installation, coverage and interference analysis. The color, touch-screen allows field engineers to tap on points of interest in any waveform and then drill down for further analysis. Advanced spectrum analysis features include multiple waveforms with peak hold / search, user selectable packet / interference triggers, spectrogram and histogram. BumbleBee-LX™ allows for realtime spectral analysis of many wireless standards as well as unidentified RF interference.
