FieldFox N99xxD-Series

The N99xxD-Series includes 14 models (combo or spectrum analyzers) to cover the maximum frequency of 14, 18, 26.5, 32, 44, 50, and 54 GHz. Each model supports more than 25 software-defined FieldFox applications. A Linux-based operating system further enhances the analyzer’s security and file management, while a touchscreen interface improves usability, efficiency, and reduces errors.

Keysight Spectrum Management Software (KSMS)

A Keysight FieldFox handheld analyzer used in conjunction with KSMS (a comprehensive PC software tool kit) works to identify, locate, and address interference concerns. With full spectrum‑optimization capabilities across RF, analog, and digital over‑the‑air demodulation, the platform enables you to monitor spectrum usage, assess utilization, and detect interference from a all-in-one solution. 30-day trial and licenses available.

Key Facts

• Monitor the spectrum from multiple FieldFox across several frequencies or antennas.

• Capture and display time-variant signals across multiple receivers.

• Report frequency band and channel utilization rate.

• Locate the source of unknown emitters and interfering signals.
