The SeeGull EX CDMA/EV-DO Scanning Receiver offers
the high levels of measurement performance necessary
for effective network deployment, troubleshooting, and
optimization. The SeeGull EX’s Top N PN scanning mode
detects and ranks base station sectors at Ec/Io detection
levels as low as -28dB for CDMA2000 networks and -18.5
dB for EV-DO networks. Measurement rates of up to
25 measurements per second provide high drive test
plot densities needed to fully characterize the RF true
environment.
The SeeGull EX CDMA/EV-DO Scanning Receiver also
provides an optional reverse link channel power
measurement, which can be helpful in troubleshooting
certain interference sources in the uplink band. With both
RSSI and optional Spectrum Analysis measurement modes,
the SeeGull EX offers RF Engineers the critical tools they
need in a compact, rugged scanning Receiver.
