Description

The Milesight FT101 is a high-performance LoRaWAN® field tester and network analyzer that simplifies the complexities of large-scale IoT deployments. With a 5.72-inch HD touch screen, it puts real-time network signal testing and analysis at your fingertips — making it far easier to plan, deploy, and manage LoRaWAN gateways and devices.

It gives an immediate read on key metrics like RSSI, SNR, and packet-loss rate between gateway and node, helping you assess coverage quality and pinpoint the best installation spots. GPS location logging, multi-SF testing, a ping-pong site-survey mode, and one-click report export make it well suited to professional network roll-outs.

Core Capabilities

Real-Time Signal Analysis Instantly assess RSSI, SNR, and packet-loss rate between gateway and node on a clear 5.72-inch HD touch screen — to judge coverage quality and find the best deployment points.
SF Sweep & Ping-Pong Send packets across different Spreading Factors to find the optimal configuration, and use the ping-pong mode (two units as gateway + node) to test uplink/downlink before deployment.
GPS Logging & Report Export Record longitude/latitude for each test point to map performance across a site, then export full reports (RSSI, SNR, uplink, SF, and more) to your computer over USB Type-C.
All-Band & Android-Based Swap external antennas to test any LoRaWAN band, compatible with all standard gateways. Built on Android 12, it also runs the Milesight ToolBox app to configure sensors via NFC.

Typical Uses

Site Surveys: Validate coverage and find the best gateway and node positions before installation.
Deployment Optimization: Identify the optimal Spreading Factor and signal configuration for each location.
Troubleshooting: Diagnose weak links and packet loss across an existing LoRaWAN network.
Sensor Configuration: Use the on-board Milesight ToolBox app to set up Milesight sensors via NFC in the field.

What's in the Box

1×FT101 Field Tester (EU868)
1×LoRaWAN Antenna (EU868, SMA)
1×USB Type-C Cable

Note: tip — a second FT101 lets you use the ping-pong mode to simulate a gateway and a node for two-point site testing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it measure?

Real-time RSSI, SNR, and packet-loss rate, plus uplink packets and Spreading Factor — with full report export over USB-C for analysis.

Which gateways does it work with?

It's designed for compatibility with all standard LoRaWAN gateways, and swappable antennas let you test across LoRaWAN bands.

What's the ping-pong function?

Using two FT101 units (one as a simulated gateway, one as a node), you can test uplink and downlink between two points before deploying real hardware.

How long does the battery last?

The 4300 mAh battery delivers around 8 hours of active testing and over 300 hours on standby, recharging via USB Type-C (5 V/2 A).
