Fluke Networks Airmagnet Spectrum Analyser

Airmagnet Spectrum Analyser Key Features

Avoiding interferences with your Wi-Fi Environment

Professional wireless networks depend on the presence of a strong reliable physical layer as the basis of communication. This fundamental requirement is a challenge for Wi-Fi networks, which must share the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz spectrum with a variety of potentially interfering technologies. The AirMagnet Spectrum Analyzer solves this problem with an intuitive solution that allows IT staff to quickly analyze the local RF environment and identify specific sources of interference and their physical locations. The Spectrum Analyzer truly rounds out the AirMagnet Mobility Suite with the ability to integrate with key products–Survey PRO and WiFi Analyzer PRO–at critical stages of WLAN planning and deployment when Layer 1 analysis is needed most.

Spectrum Fingerprinting

The AirMagnet Spectrum Analyzer uses patented spectral fingerprinting techniques to measure, analyze, and display critical spectrum events and log all interfering devices in real-time. Devices and other sources of interference are displayed by name for quick and easy identification. AirMagnet Spectrum Analyzer identifies RF emitters in the 2.4 - 2.5 GHz range (802.11 b/g or ISM band), and the 4.9 - 5.9 GHz (802.11a, Public Safety band), and classifies them for you including:

• Bluetooth devices
• 2.4 GHz Cordless Phones
• Analog / Video
• Microwave
• Burst/Fixed Frequency

Device Finder

Locate interfering devices quickly and easily. Solve performance problems on-the-fly, anywhere in the enterprise.

Displays Devices by Channel

Analyzing interferences in relation to channels helps IT staff to make adjustments to network settings, which sometimes works to improve end user performance. Combined with other analytics that the Spectrum Analyzer provides, this information helps paint a complete picture of the impact the current RF environment is having on your Wi-FI network.
