LTE & 5G Scanner
Introducing the RFBENCHMARK LiteScanner Ultra 5G, a compact and powerful RF scanner for 5G SA and LTE networks. This portable device connects to – and is powered directly from – a mobile phone via USB-C, giving engineers an effortless way to detect and measure the strength of radio frequency bands in any location. Designed for everyday field work, it delivers fast, repeatable results for modern 4G and 5G roll-outs, verification, and troubleshooting.
Easy to carry and simple to operate, LiteScanner Ultra 5G is an ideal choice for operators, integrators, and contractors who need reliable “what’s-in-the-air” measurements without investing in heavy test equipment.

Primary uses
- SITE SURVEY & PLANNING – Map signal strength, uncover coverage gaps, and locate interference sources to select the best locations for 4G/5G base stations.
- DEPLOYMENT & VERIFICATION – Validate new 5G SA and LTE sites right after turn-up with parallel scanning, confirming that coverage and signal quality meet design assumptions.
- TROUBLESHOOTING & MAINTENANCE – Diagnose signal degradation and interference on-site to keep live networks operating at peak performance.
- INDOOR DAS INSTALLATIONS – Verify coverage inside malls, office buildings, campuses, and venues, identify dead zones, and plan additional access points.
- SMALL-CELL-ROLLOUTS – Optimize urban small-cell layers, confirm handover areas, and document delivered performance for project acceptance.
5G SA & LTE in one device
supports standalone 5G NR and a wide range of LTE FDD/TDD bands, enabling a single scanner to cover most commercial and private mobile deployments
Smartphone-powered portability
draws 5 V / 0.2 A directly from a phone over USB-C, removing the need for external power supplies and simplifying field logistics
Fast wide-band scanning
short sampling times for multi-band and single-band scans provide quick visibility into the RF environment during walk- and drive-tests
Rich RF metrics for engineering analysis
captures key parameters such as operator and technology, EARFCN/NR channel, RSRP, RSRQ, cell identity, PCI/CI, TAC and additional 5G-specific metrics like SCS, carrier bandwidth, NR band, and SSB details
Seamless integration with measurement apps
designed for “plug-and-scan” operation together with mobile network-analysis tools, including the RFBENCHMARK ecosystem
Compact, field-ready design
a robust, smartphone-sized enclosure makes it easy to carry, mount, and operate in crowded indoor environments or tight equipment rooms
Cost-effective 5G scanner
brings professional-grade RF visibility for 4G/5G projects at a budget-friendly price point, ideal for both large operators and smaller engineering teams
