Optimised for iPhone and iPad

No more heavy lifting. Ekahau Survey™ offers a complete app solution optimised for the ultra-lightweight and mobile iPhone & iPad, providing an intuitive user experience that is fast and responsive.

Lightweight but packed with features

Ekahau Survey may come in a lightweight package, but it's not short on features. The Autopilot survey mode automatically tracks your location while surveying and offers full freedom of movement when surveying with just one hand. It automatically locates all nearby Wi-Fi access points, places them on the map and provides instant post-survey analysis with easy-to-read, beautiful, crystal-clear heat maps.

Hours of uninterrupted surveying

When used in conjunction with the Ekahau Sidekick*, which has an 8-hour battery, you can survey for longer without having to recharge.

Fewer site visits and more remote collaboration

Ekahau Survey automatically saves your Wi-Fi site survey data and allows you to quickly share your survey results with experts for advanced analysis, troubleshooting and detailed reporting.

Ekahau Analyzer

Professional app for checking Wi-Fi health, troubleshooting and spectrum analysis for Android and iOS devices, optimised for use with Ekahau Sidekick*.

• Automatic status check
  Automatically check the health of your Wi-Fi network with an easy-to-understand pass/fail indicator.
• Enable remote collaboration
  Give your field staff the ability to easily identify potential problems and relay information to senior staff.
• Insurance against downtime
  Reduce the complexity of Wi-Fi troubleshooting and fix WiFi-related problems in no time.

Quickly identify wireless trouble sources and keep your business running smoothly Combined with Sidekick*, the Ekahau Analyzer is an insurance policy against extended WLAN downtime. By reducing the complexity of Wi-Fi troubleshooting and validation, we make it easy to fix WLAN-related problems in the shortest possible time. Discover 'rogue' devices, identify radios suffering from high noise or low signal levels, and identify the channels your access points are operating on to improve overall Wi-Fi performance.

Turn the device in your pocket into a powerful Wi-Fi troubleshooting tool

Ekahau Analyzer provides mobility and convenience for troubleshooting the most common network problems - with the Android or iOS device right in your pocket. Connect your tablet or phone to the Ekahau Sidekick* to diagnose your network faster, more securely and on the go.

Powerful Wi-Fi troubleshooting at any company location

Remote collaboration allows anyone on site to quickly identify potential problems and relay information to the WLAN experts. You get actionable information in real time without having to be on site, ensuring minimal to no downtime for your network.

Clear pass/fail indication

Ekahau Analyzer automatically validates the health of your Wi-Fi network by testing it against predefined requirements and displaying the results with clear and easy-to-understand pass/fail indications. Get instant diagnostics for:

• Signal strength
  Provides details of the Wi-Fi network with display of the primary signal level and the secondary signal for redundancy and roaming purposes.
• Signal-to-noise ratio
  SNR (Signal-Noise-Ratio) shows the quality of the network signal, which directly affects the achievable data rates and the performance of various clients and applications in your network.
• Channel quality
  Determines which channels in your wireless network are overloaded and causing interference.
• Connectivity analysis
  Actively tests your network with your mobile device to monitor roaming behaviour and check that your network has sufficient overlap.
• Automatic test in less than 60 seconds
  Now you can start validating and troubleshooting your wireless network in less than 60 seconds. With the easy-to-use touchscreen interface and advanced spectrum analysis features, you can troubleshoot the most common network problems quickly, on the go and at your convenience.
• Fast, high-resolution Spectrum Analyzer App
  Spectrum View uses the high-resolution spectrum analyser in the Ekahau Sidekick* to display RF interference in real time. This gives you a clear overview of your network and allows you to troubleshoot problems faster.

Ekahau Capture

Easy-to-use packet capture tool for advanced troubleshooting and in-depth analysis.

• Advanced troubleshooting
  Easily capture the data you need for advanced troubleshooting and in-depth analysis of hard-to-diagnose Wi-Fi problems.
• Sidekick*-capable
  Ekahau Capture allows anyone to quickly capture Wi-Fi packets with the Ekahau Sidekick*.
• No additional equipment
  You no longer need to invest in special and expensive equipment or resort to complex and unreliable methods to perform packet capture.

Capture to optimise the performance of Wi-Fi networks.

Capture the causes of high channel utilisation and calculate WLAN traffic statistics such as repetition rates, average data rates and frame type distribution.

Keep your network secure

Capture security threats such as misconfigured Wi-Fi security settings, exposed network or user information, unencrypted traffic and denial-of-service (DoS) attacks.

Two are more than one

Use both Wi-Fi radios in the Ekahau Sidekick* to capture on two Wi-Fi channels simultaneously and ensure that no packets are missed when devices move between two access points. Or you can capture on 2.4 and 5 GHz simultaneously.

Compatible with Sidekick* or third-party tools.

Ekahau Capture stores packets in the industry standard .pcap format. Use the Sidekick* All-in-One Wi-Fi Diagnostic Tool included with Connect or another packet analyser (sold separately) to troubleshoot connectivity issues, roaming problems, garbled audio, dropped calls and Wi-Fi driver problems.

Ekahau Cloud

Work across teams and simultaneously on a project to leverage on-site staff and external Wi-Fi experts.

• Flexible cooperation
  Choose a method of collaboration that works best for you and your clients, and easily switch between offline and cloud modes.
• Simple project release
  Enjoy seamless collaboration between headquarters and field offices and make project approval easy and convenient for your entire team.
• Workflows for several people
  Several people in the field can now work on a project at the same time, while important data can be shared quickly and everywhere with Wi-Fi experts.

Stay connected

Collaborate and track the progress of multiple projects in near real time from anywhere in the world.

Minimise rework

Prevent costly rework with automatic project sync that syncs your files across devices and in the cloud and stores them on your iPad, laptop and Sidekick*.

Organise yourself

A central project repository makes it easy to find project files and ensures that the latest version is always used. Store up to 2500 projects and 50 GB of project files.

Go offline

Easily switch between cloud and offline mode when projects or clients require offline storage of data.

The challenge for today's WiFi networks has long since ceased to be limited to simply providing seamless WiFi coverage. With the increasing use of smartphones, tablets, laptops and other Wi-Fi devices, network capacity can quickly become a problematic bottleneck and the cause of production downtime.

The new Ekahau PRO offers special tools for a quick analysis of network capacity and for the timely detection of any bottlenecks that could be caused by insufficient capacity in the WLAN area.

Ekahau PRO takes into account the capacity requirements of the WLAN network, based on the placement of the access points. The more network capacity is required, the denser the layout of the proposed access points.

Accuracy is critical to Wi-Fi design

The Sidekick's accuracy allows you to identify the signal correctly the first time and ensure you get the right number of APs in the right place for your design. Relying on a Wi-Fi adapter or dongle means high variance and high risk, which can significantly increase costs and reduce the effectiveness of your network. Get the right tool for the job with Sidekick.

With a built-in all-day battery and hands-free design, Sidekick makes you more mobile by turning your smartphone or tablet into a powerful Wi-Fi tool
