With Motorola SiteScanner, users can quickly perform active and passive site surveys, visualize multiple survey results, identify sources of interference, and validate that equipment has been correctly installed for 802.11 a/b/g/n networks.
Network designers and service providers will appreciate the ease with which they can view coverage, noise levels, signal/noise, channel allocations, SSID usage and more, while feeling confident that the network's wireless infrastructure is fully functional and deployed to meet customer specifications.
With SiteScanner, users are able to collect real-world RF information and client statistics to visualize performance of current networks and improve the quality of wireless planning models.
Perform Comprehensive Site Surveys
● Identify coverage areas
● Locate network dead spots
● Validate AP placement, channel and power settings
● Pinpoint areas with possible interference
● Discover unauthorized access points
● Measure RSSI (Received Signal Strength Intensity) coverage, SIR (Signal to Interference Ratio), SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio), and data rates
● Perform complete analysis per access point, per network, per channel or across networks
● Visualize heat maps of measured data and depict real-world user experience
Maximize 11n potential in homogeneous and mixed technology networks
● Determine better performance potential due to presence of 11n APs
● Locate legacy equipment that hinders 11n technology
● Verify actual channel width of 802.11n clients
When combined with Motorola LANPlanner, users are able to leverage real-world RF information and client performance statistics to improve the quality of their wireless models.
Use Survey Data to Optimize Network Designs in LANPlanner
● By integrating site survey data into the network plan, users can compare the actual RF loss values in their deployment with the planned values and automatically adjust the deployment model.
● Reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO) of wireless networks by eliminating costly rework that frequently occurs with measurement-based network design.
As part of the RF Management Suite, SiteScanner seamlessly integrates with network management software for visualizing, troubleshooting and maintaining the quality of service your team built into the design plan.
Integrated with Management Software
● Easily open network design plans with AP, Switch and Sensor information in Motorola’s RF Management Suite software.
● Verify ongoing network performance and visualize heat maps of live data.
● Identify areas with changes to user-defined parameters such as signal strength, noise, or SIR.
