introducing site vantage™
RFI Technology Solutions has fully designed and manufactured a new revolutionary product, the Site Vantage™ in Adelaide, Australia. We have created a powerful tool used for monitoring the performance of RF sites and the overall network efficiency by providing exceptional insights.
The Site Vantage™ benefits from the latest available hardware and software technologies, designed to support new innovative RF monitoring capabilities.
The latest hardware and software technologies include the fast monitoring of the forward and reflected transmitted power per channel, measuring Tx to Rx antenna isolation, and monitoring Rx RSSI levels for up to 80 channels. It also boasts a broadband monitoring capability, allowing for RF monitoring in dual or multiband sites using a single device.
The Site Vantage™ can monitor up to three different transmit and receive pathways, including multiple antennas, combiners, and diversity systems.
The Site Vantage™ helps network operators save money, improve network uptime, and make users happier. Its advanced design allows for future upgrades, like automatic RF maintenance and remote troubleshooting.
The Site Vantage™ can work with older Site Alarm Modules (SAM) and has built-in inputs and outputs for alarms. It also has a new and improved user interface that makes it easier to set up and see data.
why site vantage™?
The Site Vantage™ provides detailed information about the performance of RF sites, allowing for better maintenance decisions and reduced downtime. It alerts operators to faults as they happen, enabling quick responses and minimizing network disruptions.
KEY FEATURES of the site vantage™
- Enables remote and automated RF site monitoring and fault finding to minimise on-site maintenance and operational costs.
- Non-intrusive and channelised monitoring of Tx forward and reflected power, VSWR, and Rx RSSI in multi-channel, digital, and analogue LMR systems.
- Advanced RF tests to monitor the antenna isolation, Tx filter noise suppression, and Rx system carrier rejection.
- Broadband operation supporting frequencies from 132 to 960MHz.
- Fast channel scan rates.
- Three paired FWD and REV inputs and three Rx inputs.
- Broad input voltage ranges from 12 to 60VDC.
- Advanced cyber security features.
- Supports HTTPS and SNMP v3 protocols.
- Integrated Analogue/Digital Inputs and Alarm Relay Outputs.
- Hardware is ready for future advanced RF monitoring software features.
- Onboard RF Test and Signal Generator ports for easier on-site troubleshooting.
MAIn BENEFITS of the site vantage ™
As mentioned, the Site Vantage™ helps the owners and operators of LMR networks to minimise the cost of operation and ownership and also to maximise the end user satisfaction. Its benefits include:- 24/7 non-intrusive monitoring of the RF sites means the faults are identified as soon as they happen, hence minimising the impact on the end users.
- Automated remote RF health monitoring and troubleshooting, minimises the frequency of technician site visits and the time needed at each site. Knowing about the fault nature also means the right tools and people will be mobilised to address those faults even before the first site visit, hence the minimised cost of operation.
- Identifying the nature of faults, also helps to prioritise the required actions and allocate resources according to the potential impact on the end users.
