SDRplay Radio Spectrum Processor - RSP1A Software Defined Radio (SDR) for New Apps Development 1KHz → 2GHz RSP1A

RSP1A 14-bit Radio Spectrum Processor

The SDRPlay RSP1A is an entry-level SDR receiver, upgrading from the original RSP1 model. This powerful, wideband 14-bit SDR is the perfect receiver for all-round general coverage from 1kHz to 2GHz.
Simply connect the RSP1A to your computer and add an antenna and you will have an excellent communications receiver which is able to monitor up to 10MHz of spectrum. It comes in a black plastic housing which is RF shielded. It enables the RSP1A to be both robust and easily portable.
The SDRplay RSP1A comes with “Getting Started” information which contains links to all the information for you to get up and running.

• Continuous coverage 1 kHz to 2 GHz
• Robust and portable case
• RF shielded
• Single SMA antenna socket
• API provided for demodulator/application development
• Powered over USB cable
• 95 x 80 x 30 mm

What is it used for?
With its wide coverage, the SDRplay RSP1A provides flexibility in your application of choice. The RSP2 frequency range covers all amateur, broadcast and industrial/scientific/medical (ISM) bands from experimental LF through HF, VHF and UHF. The RSP1A is also the ideal tool for educational use.
You can add up to 16 individual receivers within a 10MHz piece of spectrum (with SDRuno software).

Software:
The RSP1A uses the powerful SDRPlay SDRuno software which is Windows-based, enables you to transform your computer into a general coverage receiver. The RSP1A is software upgradable for future standards too.
The RSP1A can accurately record RF power and noise measurements over time for logging and charting purposes. A documented API allows developers to create new demodulators or applications around the platform.
Alternatively, there are other freely available software types, for example the popular HDSDR, SDR-Console and Linux-based Cubic SDR. For Linux projects and applications, SoapySDR is supported and useful for Raspberry Pi-based implementations.

RSP Versions Available:
RSP1A – 1kHz to 2GHz wideband SDR receiver with one antenna port (RS 150-3954)
RSP2 - 1kHz to 2GHz wideband SDR receiver with multiple antenna ports (RS 124-9619)
RSP2pro - RSP2 SDR receiver in a rugged metal case (RS 125-7958)
RSPduo – 1kHz to 2GHz wideband dual tuner SDR receiver with multiple antenna ports (RS 174-7945)

Note

The SDRplay is not supplied with the antenna or USB-A to USB-B cable.
