When to Break Out the Spectrum Analyzer


Ever wondered what really lurks in the airwaves around you? In this lively webcast recap, Dan Jones walks us through the magic behind spectrum analysers — the tool that turns unseen RF chaos into visual clarity. If you’ve ever tried to design or troubleshoot a Wi-Fi network, you know it’s not just about access points and antennas; you’ve got to understand the jungle of interference, noise, and signal strength that lives between 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and beyond. This session demystifies how spectrum analysers measure that energy and why it matters.


But it’s not just theory. You’ll learn the real-world when: measuring noise floors to predict actual data rates, spotting rogue interference sources, and making smarter planning decisions. From crowded office environments to industrial floors with noisy gear, this webcast shows how and where spectrum analysis earns its keep — and where modern smart APs handle most of the heavy lifting on their own.


Even better? You’ll walk away with a fresh perspective on how today’s wireless clients make connection choices, the role of noise in signal quality, and why for most modern Wi-Fi designs you might not need an analyzer after all — unless you’re facing serious interference challenges. Perfect for network engineers, planners, or curious tech fans who want to see what’s really happening in the air.
