Yellowjacket-TABLET 802.11B/A/N/G Wi-Fi Analyzer

Yellowjacket®-TABLET is both a Windows XP® tablet UMPC spectrum analyzer and 802.11b/a/n/g packet demodulator. The calibrated receiver measures between 2.0 - 5.9 GHz covering such popular wireless bands including Wi-Fi, Wi-MAX, ISM, Public Safety, Bluetooth and more. Powerful spectrum analysis features include user selectable power triggers, 3 pairs of markers, video smoothing, waveform averaging, 1 live trace and up to 4 peak hold waveform traces with peak hold/search. This advanced spectrum analysis allows YELLOWJACKET®-TABLET to display areas of RF interference. The receiver is a passive device and “invisible” to the network making it easier to identify hackers, rogue APs and other sorts of RF interference. YELLOWJACKET®-TABLET interface offers a large 7” WVGA LCD touch-screen featuring 1.33 GHz Intel Pentium® processor.

Yellowjacket®-TABLET demodulates all 802.11b/a/n/g packets providing device MAC address, SSID, channel number, data rates, encryption, modulation scheme, device/packet type and more while SINGLE DEVICE SURVEY MODE supports full packet, traffic and multipath analysis. Once users have detected a specific AP or STA, they can “lock onto” those packets to locate it using an optional direction finding antenna. Unlike other packet sniffers and signal strength meters, Berkeley’s receiver technology measures RSSI to within +1.0 dB of any nearby 802.11 packet on or off your network. This realtime measurement is useful in determining total channel power, multipath and WISP antenna alignments.

SINGLE DEVICE SURVEY MODE  
Packet Analysis Relative distribution of the different packets transmitted (broadcast/ unicast / multi cast) and data rates of transmitter packets
Traffic Analysis Relative distribution of various Tx / Rx packets (data, beacon, probe Rq. / Rsp., etc.)
MULTIPATH ANALYSIS Percentage of total correlated power
CHANNEL SCAN SETTINGS  
User Selectable Select 14 channels in 2.4 GHz band (802.11b/g) and 27 channels in 5 GHz band (802.11a) with user selectable scan time settings per channel
Adaptive Scan Intelligent scanning technique allows the receiver to spend more time on channels with greater Wi-Fi activity. Channel scan time increments everytime activity has been detected on a channel up to a maximum value.
