Oscium WiFi Interference Finder OSC2100 - Tri-Band Directional Antenna
Product Code: OSC2100
Tri-Band Wireless Interference Detection The Oscium OSC2100 WiFi Interference Finder is a precision tri-band directional antenna specifically engineered for identifying and locating RF interference sources across 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz frequency bands. This professional-grade tool enables network engineers to pinpoint non-WiFi disruptors affecting wireless performance in modern WiFi 6/6E/7 environments. Technical Specifications Parameter Specification Frequency Coverage 2.4 GHz / 5 GHz / 6 GHz (Tri-band) Antenna Gain 5-8 dBi (frequency dependent) Connector Type RP-SMA male Radiation Pattern Directional (logo-facing orientation) Dimensions 3.2" × 2.5" × 0.5" (81mm × 64mm × 13mm) Weight 0.875 lbs (400g) Operating Temperature -20°C to +70°C Directional Interference Detection Unlike omnidirectional antennas that receive signals from all directions, the OSC2100 employs a focused beam pattern for precision interference hunting. Engineers align the antenna's Oscium logo toward suspected interference sources to achieve maximum directional sensitivity.
This technique significantly reduces false positives from background RF noise while amplifying signals from the target direction.
Field Usage Tip: Point the Oscium logo directly at suspected interference sources for optimal directional gain. The antenna provides approximately 120° coverage with peak sensitivity in the logo-facing direction.
WiFi 6E/7 Compatibility
The OSC2100's tri-band design ensures compatibility with legacy and next-generation wireless standards. Coverage extends across the new 6 GHz WiFi 6E spectrum (5.925-7.125 GHz) in addition to traditional 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. This future-proofs the antenna for emerging WiFi 7 deployments utilising 320 MHz channel bonding.
Quick Start Connection Guide
1. Power down spectrum analyser 2. Remove existing omnidirectional antenna 3. Thread OSC2100 onto RP-SMA connector (hand-tight) 4. Power on analyser and configure for desired band 5. Point logo toward suspected interference source 6. Monitor signal strength while rotating antenna
