RF Venue Spectrum Recorder SPECTRUM-RECORDER, Network and USB RF Spectrum Data Logger for Wireless Audio

The RF Venue Spectrum Recorder, a compact and self-contained device, simplifies monitoring and optimizing wireless microphone and in-ear monitor systems. It continuously captures RF activity in the 400-700 MHz band, saving data as time-stamped CSV files on its internal storage. These files can be retrieved directly via USB drive or accessed remotely over a local network.

Connect Spectrum Recorder directly to your wireless microphone antenna system or use the included whip antenna to capture spectrum for a site survey before your system is installed or loaded-in. PoE capable and battery ready, the Spectrum Recorder is small and lightweight enough to easily ship to a remote location or deploy across many rooms on a fixed installation.

Spectrum Recorder's data can be uploaded to RF Venue's free web-based Wireless System Builder tool for system design and frequency coordination, or imported natively to third party software like Shure® Wireless Workbench and Audio-Technica® Wireless Manager. No software installation is needed, and no cloud subscriptions are required for Spectrum Recorder.

Key Features

• Automatic Spectrum Recording: Instant and continuous capture of spectrum activity from 400-700 MHz. No spectrum analyzer or complex test equipment required.
• 24 Hour Scan Data Capture: See the entire scope of spectrum activity over 24 hours. Max Hold and Average scan views are captured and calculated automatically.
• Active Frequencies Scan: Separate fixed transmitters such as DTV stations from surprise interference sources. The Active Scan compiles hard to detect frequencies to help protect your wireless system from interference hits.
• Power Over Ethernet (PoE) Capable: Deploy Spectrum Recorder where needed with just an ethernet connection. Easily cover multiple rooms, buildings, or studios with your own network of LAN-based Spectrum Recorders.
• Battery Power Ready: Spectrum Recorder's 5V USB-C DC power input can accommodate common portable power banks used for charging mobile devices. A 10,000 mAh battery can power Spectrum Recorder for several days.
• No Software Installed, No Subscription Fees: Spectrum Recorder does not require any outside services or onsite software installation. IT professionals can use the Spectrum Recorder MAC address to assign a fixed IP address via the network’s router if desired.
