SNYPER-LTE Graphyte
User Manual
Download Latest Edition
Rev 1.7
The SNYPER-LTE Graphyte (EU) is designed to survey the cellular networks in Europe and
Africa used by mobile phones and data terminals. The SNYPER-LTE Graphyte (USA) and
SNYPER-LTE Graphyte (AP) are complementary products designed to survey the cellular
networks in the USA and Asia-Pacic regions respectively. The term “Graphyte” used
in this manual refers to all models of the SNYPER Graphyte. The Graphyte enables the
operator to rst determine which networks are within coverage range, and then optionally
to lock to a desired cell to monitor the received signal strength of that cell only (LiveSCAN
mode). Additionally, both normal and LiveSCAN modes may be run continuously, logs of
all measurements taken saved, and both html and .CSV formatted summary documents
produced.
There are many different frequency bands that cellular equipment uses, and they vary region
by region and country by country. In general, different regions tend to use common frequency
bands, but there are always exceptions. While the SNYPER-LTE Graphyte (EU) was designed
for the frequency bands typically found in Europe, in many cases these same bands can be
found in other countries and regions around the world. Similarly, the SNYPER-LTE Graphyte
(USA) can survey networks outside of the USA, especially other countries in North and South
America and the Caribbean.
Additionally, just because a frequency band may be used in a country, that does not
necessarily mean that an operator has taken out a license to do so. Please check the
frequency bands supported by the Graphyte (see page 9) with the frequency bands used in
the country in which the surveys are being conducted. One way to do this is to search for
“List of mobile network operators by region” on Wikipedia, another is by directly contacting
and asking the local network operators.
