PCTEL Launches SeeGull IBflex at MWC

PCTEL, Inc., a leader in simplifying wireless and site solutions for private and public networks, announced the launch of the SeeGull IBflex in-building scanning receiver at the Mobile World Congress (MWC). The IBflex increases the ease and efficiency of in-building wireless network testing and scans all major cellular technologies, bands, and WiFi in a single walk test. The flexible design and its unique "hot swap battery system" reduces total testing time and unwanted interruptions.

Designed for the complex in-building environment, the IBflex boasts a small form factor and is lightweight for easy carrying. Its low power consumption and hot swap batteries extend walk testing duration. For added convenience during and after data collection, the IBflex supports both wired and wireless connectivity to a laptop or tablet. Users can also store data directly to a USB flash drive or SD card.

The scanner's field-upgradeable software configuration supports any cellular band from 570 MHz to 3.8 GHz, while WiFi support covers both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Currently supported cellular technologies include LTE FDD, TD-LTE, CDMA, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, EV-DO, and GSM. The IBflexis also Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MIMO) ready, featuring dual-port scanning for advanced LTE optimization.
