Richardson, Tex. — Tektronix Communications has launched the H600 RFHawk, its handheld digital RF signal hunter solution for the surveillance and security market. The H600 RFHawk combines a high-performance spectrum analyzer with an intuitive set of user controls, allowing for the quick classification and location of both analog and digital RF transmissions.
Using the H600 RFHawk, surveillance engineers and field operators can quickly spot and locate illegitimate analog and digital RF transmission sources in the field. The touch-screen user interface is designed for field conditions and optimized for scanning the RF environment, classifying the known signals and locating the unknown or illegitimate analog and digital RF transmission sources.
The spectrogram mode feature allows customers to see the true signal shape through FFT-based spectrum analysis capabilities. This is especially useful for bursty signals such as WiFi, hopping such as GSM, or intentionally sporadic signals, said Tektronix. The H600 RFHawk allows logging of these signals and storing geographic reference data per measurement.
Directional antenna and signal strength readings linked to built-in GPS referenced or in-building maps enable rapid narrowing of the search area, leading to the target. High sensitivity and low noise floor allow tracking of faint signals better than most traditional handheld spectrum analyzers, according to Tektronix.
