RFeye Desktop – the world’s first compact high performance spectrum analyzer
Cambridge, UK, 14th December, 2016. CRFS, a leader in real-time RF spectrum monitoring solutions, unveils its next generation 8 GHz RFeye® Desktop. The RFeye Desktop is the first commercially available, high performance spectrum analyzer which is truly portable – it fits in the palm of your hand and can be carried around in your laptop bag!
The RFeye Desktop looks nothing like a traditional piece of test & measurement equipment. It is presented in a compact, lightweight, ergonomic package just like in a consumer electronics product. Inside is the highest performance, small form factor wideband radio receiver on the market. The RFeye Desktop frees you from the large, heavy and power-consuming integrated spectrum analyzers with their often clunky built-in screens and antiquated operating systems. It can simply be plugged into a USB 3.0 enabled laptop; the software web apps can then be run within a web browser on your Windows® or Linux based device.
In addition, a growing list of mission-specific applications are available as CRFS RFeye web apps. Over time this library will grow to include many of the cutting edge RFeye spectrum monitoring tools that CRFS has developed for its other spectrum monitoring solutions. Users can create and share their own applications as part of a wider RFeye ecosystem.
Unmatched performance includes: 9 kHz – 8 GHz frequency range, up to 100 MHz instantaneous bandwidth, sweep speed of over 400 GHz/s, industry-leading phase noise and high spurious-free dynamic range. The small size and weight of the RFeye Desktop has been achieved without any performance compromises. All in a package that weighs less than 1 kg and fits in the palm of your hand.
“CRFS is known for making the best small form factor receivers in the world,” said Alistair Massarella, CEO. “The RFeye Desktop is an exciting new concept in portable spectrum analysis for the Apple® age. Platform independent and with simple-to-use web applications, you get amazing performance in a convenient small package. It’s ideal for a wide range of test and measurement tasks requiring absolute precision. But it will also do the more complex tasks of detecting and analyzing low probability of intercept and frequency hopping signals typical of advanced digital communications. It really is a versatile tool. And it looks great too.”
