Wi-Spy Air Hardware Data Sheet

About the Wi-Spy Air

Wi-Spy Air is hardware equipped with a spectrum analyzer and a separate dedicated dual-band wireless chipset that scans SSID information and frames.

The combination spectrum and WiFi analysis capabilities in a single device evolves the Wi-Spy product line as it allows MetaGeek software to gather important layer 1 and layer 2 information from a single device instead of relying on separate devices - some of which do not like to share all of the WiFi-rich data that is pivotal when troubleshooting WiFi issues. 

With the Wi-Spy Air and its onboard wireless chipset, we transform iOS and Android devices into professional grade WiFi troubleshooting tools. 

Device Power

4 AAA (rechargeable or single-use both work) batteries are required to power the wireless chipset. The Wi-Spy Air ships with four (4) 1.2v 1000 mAh AAA batteries, pre-charged, and will provide about 8 hours of usage. Rechargeable batteries can be charged while remaining inside the Wi-Spy Air by connecting a charge cable to the USB-Micro port on the side of the device. The spectrum analyzer draws power from the device you attach the Wi-Spy Air to. 

Connect the Wi-Spy Air to your device by using the appropriate USB OTG (On The Go) cable and plugging it into the USB-Mini port at the bottom of the Wi-Spy Air.
