RFeye Node 100-40 overview
The RFeye 100-40 is a high-performance RF sensor with a 9 kHz – 40 GHz frequency range and a 100 MHz instantaneous bandwidth. The RFeye Node 100-40 enables operators to monitor higher frequencies with advanced signal intercept by incorporating the latest superheterodyne receiver technology.
This fourth-generation RF sensor has in-built edge processing, reducing backhaul data bandwidth. Excellent phase noise, low noise figure, and superb spurious free dynamic range, coupled with FPGA technology, enables easy integration and exploitation of the SDR and computer platform.
- Real-time continuous spectrum operations
- Finds low-power signals
- Detects signals that have a low probability of intercept
- Compatible with GPS, BeiDou, GALILEO, and GLONASS
- Gateway to powerful software and APIs
- Flexible deployment – rugged indoor or outdoor RF sensors for fixed, temporary, or mobile platforms
IP67 rated
All RFeye Nodes are designed for outdoor deployment in extreme environments and operate between -30oC – +550C. The MIL-spec I/O connectors, weatherproof RF connectors and sealing gaskets provide IP67-rated protection.

RFeye Site software
Multi-mission, multi-domain and multi-user Connect to and task RFeye hardware with multiple missions simultaneously. Run multiple missions (geolocation, detection, measurement missions etc) in parallel for maximum flexibility. Spectrum monitoring & measurements Conduct ITU-compliant spectrum monitoring and all essential measurements including channel occupancy, power, and frequency deviation. Overlay and analyze with customizable charts and measurement tools. Signal Discovery Signal Discovery increases probability of intercept for hard-to-find, unknown signals, or signals hidden in the noise. It is especially useful to discover non-standard signals, drone telemetry and datalinks, and mesh modems, which help identify mesh networks. Fast, accurate geolocation Manually or automatically detect signals of interest and geolocate the source by using multiple geolocation techniques. Time Difference Of Arrival (TDoA), Power On Arrival (PoA), Angle Of Arrival (AoA) techniques are all supported as well as hybrid geolocation which combines all of them, displayed within the interactive map. Geolocate multiple targets over wide areas in real-time with extremely fast update rates ensuring accurate geolocation of emissions even from fast-moving targets. Hybrid geolocation draws on powerful algorithms, fast and accurate synchronised techniques (AoA, TDoA and PoA) for advanced localization and geolocation. The post-processing TDoA feature allows geolocation of recorded signals allowing, for example, post-event diagnosis of interference incidents. Geolocation scenarios can be conducted with the simulation tool enabling users to practice and fine-tune their geolocation and interference-hunting skills.
RFeye Mission Manager software
Mission Manager is a virtual spectrum manager, enabling users to establish and coordinate multiple scan operations, including sweep, occupancy, time, bearing, detector, and remote recording. Additionally, it permits sweep and interlinked surveys to form a command center from a central location. Software users can build a continuous and synchronous view of the spectrum as events happen.
