  • Special Features
  • Specification

The MS27102A is a compact, Linux-based remote monitoring solution engineered for continuous spectrum surveillance and interference hunting. Its 20 MHz FFT bandwidth allows wideband real-time signal analysis, while the IQ capture feature records data in high fidelity—useful for post-processing and Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA) based geolocation.

With a built-in web server, users can control all measurement and analysis functions directly from a browser (Chrome/Firefox supported). Communication options include SCPI command-based programming and Vision™ software integration, enabling automated alarm systems, data logging, email alerts, and spectrum database generation. Vision Locate extends functionality to triangulate sources of interference using multiple monitors.

Designed for national spectrum regulation, military surveillance, and critical infrastructure protection, the MS27102A is suitable for installations across prisons, airports, border security, and more. It can detect low-level, short burst signals in the FM band or cellular range, ensuring maximum visibility into unauthorized transmission activity.
