RF spectrum analysis in real-time

Find available frequencies

Do you want to know which part of the RF spectrum is occupied, and which parts are free to use? No theoretical lists but real data in real-time? The RF Scout shows you exactly all available frequencies for your wireless mics, camera's, IEM's, intercoms or any other wireless production tools.

Real live data, no lists
Put an end to outdated, static lists that ignore many real-world emission sources or strength of disturbances.The RF Scout visualizes the whole spectrum in real-time for exactly your location, from 108MHz to 2.7GHz. So, not only the wireless-mic critical UHF bands, but also VHF, DECT, 4G & 5G intergaps, Wifi/2.4 etc.
Remote access
Thanks to the Ethernet interface, the results from RF Scout can be accessed from anywhere via the Internet. This also works for several users at the same time - be it via tablet, laptop or desktop.This allows you to provide guest technicians with advance access to the RF situation on site, visualize the data live on site on a screen or offer remote support.
Low rental cost
RF Scout is available via a straightforward annual rental model. This includes the RF Scout Box and cloud-based access for up to 5 users simultaneously. It costs only "as much as a cup of coffee a day": 990 Euro per year. We charge a one-time fee of 165 euros for the initial setup, which is waived upon subscription renewal.
Easy setup
The RF Scout is easy to install. All you need is an Internet connection and the compact RF Scout box placed near the stage or studio floor. The RF Scout Box is powered over ethernet from an - optionally available - PoE+ Switch (IEEE 802.3at compatible).

Clear RF spectrum analysis
The basic screen provides a clear, uncluttered view of the RF Spectrum. It shows the regional DVB-T TV stations, local transmitters, ENG crews and any other RF source. And, of course, which frequencies are free to use, without interference. In real-time.
RF scout markers
The RF Scout Admin can place markers on specific spot frequencies or frequency ranges, e.g. wireless mic/intercoms systems of the venue, or known local DVBT transmitters. These markers belong to the particular RF Scout Box, and each user can turn them On or Off at will.
Private markers
Each User also has his own set of "Private Markers". Ideal for labeling your very own wireless systems or other specific frequencies of interest.
TV channel overlay
MHz or TV channel? Per default "MHz" is displayed, but with the TV Channel Overlay you also know your channel whereabouts. Per user selectable On or Off. And you can chose if you prefer the PAL/8MHz system of the NTSC/6MHz channel layout.
The delta trace
The Delta Trace gives you the difference between the real-time scan and a pre-selected one. A straight blue line? Then all is as expected. Any change(a transmitter that should have been there but isn't, or the other way around: a new transmitter you didn't expect yet its there)will immediately grab your attention via a divergent Delta Trace.
Up to 5 users at the same time
Each RF Scout provides access for up to five concurrent users, anytime and from any location.
Hotlinks for guest users
You have sound engineers or technicians as guests? With a simple click you can grant temporary access to your local RF Scout Box via hotlink invitation.
Export options
RF Scout creates CSV-Files (real time data), CSV-Peak and PNG exports for exchange of scandata with programs like Shure's Wireless Work Bench.
