Critical Communications Scanner
RFBENCHMARK LiteScanner 450 is a mobile RF measurement and monitoring tool dedicated to LTE450 and private LTE networks. Designed for utilities, critical communications, and IoT applications, it provides real-time insight into coverage and performance directly in the field. Powered from a smartphone and controlled by the RFBENCHMARK ecosystem, LiteScanner 450 helps teams accelerate LTE450 rollouts, verify SLAs, and keep mission-critical systems online.
With its compact form factor and dual passive/active measurement modes, the device enables both RF diagnostics and end-to-end service testing – from signal level and quality to throughput, latency, and file-transfer performance.

Primary uses
- PRIVATE LTE450 NETWORK DEPLOYMENT – Optimize coverage during roll-out, confirm designed signal levels, and validate site selection.
- CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE MONITORING – Maintain reliable connectivity for MCX, SCADA, AMI, and industrial IoT systems that depend on LTE450.
- OPERATOR BENCHMARKING – Compare performance across LTE450 operators or infrastructure suppliers to support procurement and vendor management.
- QoS & SLA VALIDATION – Measure real-world KPIs such as SINR, throughput, and latency to verify that contractual service levels are met.
Dual measurement modes
passive scanning (no SIM required) – Discovers cells and analyzes RF conditions, delivering detailed parameters such as ARFCN, PCI, TAC, CI, RSRP, RSRQ and related identifiers. active testing (with SIM) – Performs SINR measurements, throughput testing (upload/download speeds), latency checks, iPerf3 bandwidth tests and FTP file-transfer verification for full end-to-end evaluation.
LTE450-focused band support
covers key LTE450 bands (31, 72, 87 around 410–450 MHz) along with complementary LTE bands in sub-GHz and selected TDD ranges, matching the spectrum used for public safety, utilities, transport, campuses and industrial deployments
Tight integration with RFBENCHMARK Pro
works seamlessly with the RFBENCHMARK Pro mobile app for live visualization of network conditions, intuitive control of scans, and instant data collection in the field
Advanced analytics via N-Analytics
when combined with the RFBENCHMARK N-Analytics web platform, it enables centralized storage, SLA and QoS reporting, long-term trend analysis, and benchmarking across sites and operators
Field-ready hardware design
compact, lightweight housing with SMA antenna connector and USB-C power input, optimized for low power consumption and extended use during drive- and walk-tests
Engineering-grade output data
provides full LTE identification (operator, MCC/MNC, EARFCN, PCI, CI, TAC) together with RF quality, SINR, and service-level KPIs, allowing engineers to correlate radio conditions with application performance
Lower operational costs
by spotting coverage gaps and performance issues early, LiteScanner 450 helps reduce truck rolls, avoid downtime, and plan maintenance based on real measurements rather than assumptions
