The NESDR Nano 2 Plus is a revolutionary product designed specifically for software-defined radio (SDR) applications, making it an ideal choice for enthusiasts and professionals alike. Manufactured by NooElec, this tiny yet powerful device boasts a compact size of just 24mm x 21mm x 8mm (15/16′ x 13/16′ x 5/16′), allowing it to fit seamlessly into any portable setup or embedded system. Its diminutive dimensions do not compromise its performance; in fact, the NESDR Nano 2 Plus is equipped with advanced technology that enhances its capabilities.

At the heart of the NESDR Nano 2 Plus lies the RTL2832U interface IC, paired with the new and improved R820T2 tuner. This combination provides exceptional sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) compared to devices utilizing the older R820T tuner. With a frequency range of approximately 25MHz to 1750MHz, this SDR offers extensive coverage without any gaps. Users seeking to expand their frequency capabilities down to 100kHz can do so with the Ham It Up upconverter, available for purchase separately.

One of the standout features of the NESDR Nano 2 Plus is its ultra-low phase noise, thanks to the custom TCXO (temperature-compensated crystal oscillator) fabricated exclusively for NooElec. The TCXO boasts a frequency stability of 0.5PPM (parts per million) and impressive phase noise specifications, making it the highest performance TCXO available in any low-cost SDR on the market today. For instance, the phase noise @1kHz offset is -138dBc/Hz or better, while at 10kHz, it’s -150dBc/Hz or better, and at 100kHz, it reaches -152dBc/Hz or better. This ensures that users experience crystal-clear reception and superior audio quality.

Moreover, the NESDR Nano 2 Plus is fully compatible with a wide variety of popular SDR software packages. Whether you are using Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, or Raspberry Pi, you will find that the NESDR Nano 2 Plus integrates effortlessly with your preferred software, such as Matlab, HDSDR, SDR Touch, Planeplotter, SDR#, and many more. This broad compatibility opens up endless possibilities for hobbyists and professionals who want to explore the world of SDR.

The device also comes bundled with a free telescopic antenna and includes a comprehensive 1-year warranty directly from NooElec. With locations in both the United States and Canada, customers can take advantage of full technical support services, ensuring that your investment is not only safe but also wise. Additionally, the product undergoes extensive quality assurance testing to ensure durability and reliability. The inclusion of low-ESR NP0/C0G capacitors and high-Q inductors minimizes the noise floor, enhances stability, and extends the longevity of the device.

In conclusion, the NESDR Nano 2 Plus is a remarkable blend of performance, portability, and affordability. Whether you’re conducting remote installations, working on embedded applications, or simply exploring the SDR realm, this tiny powerhouse is designed to meet your needs. Experience the unmatched price-performance ratio that NooElec offers with the NESDR Nano 2 Plus and elevate your SDR experience today.
