RFeye technology (COTS optimized) is easy to connect and install and does not require recalibration once set up.
Designed for outdoor deployment in extreme environments, RFeye Nodes operate between -30°C – +55°C.
RFeye Nodes can be deployed on masts, tripods, within building ceiling tiles (TSCM solution), and as drone payloads. These same RF sensors are configured across all CRFS hardware (fixed, mobile, tactical, and in-field) platforms.
CRFS hardware works with a software suite to monitor, capture, analyze, and geolocate signals of interest for complete spectrum visibility.
