setcom wireless S-CAT 6010 Test System Introduces Compact and
Efficient R&D Testing for Wireless Devices
Test a device’s protocol stack from radio
to applications layer
MUNICH, Germany (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) October 19, 2008 --
As wireless services and applications explode worldwide using an
ever-increasing range of wireless standards, device developers are
desperate to keep up with new and complex testing requirements. Paced by
relentless consumer demand, designers continue to pile on more features
onto a single platform.
Consumers expect all their services and applications to work properly no
matter where they are—that means a seamless
hand-off to any network. These dual expectations of ultimate features
and ultimate mobility increase the complexity of testing protocol
layers. Even so, time-to-market is shrinking as manufacturers try to
gain competitive advantage. Obtaining accurate test results under
simulated “real-world”
conditions is vital to the success of a wireless product.
The S-CAT 6010’s revolutionary approach to
wireless protocol testing
Enter the S-CAT 6010 wireless protocol test system, a revolutionary
design approach for wireless device protocol testing. It replaces a
bench full of equipment with a cost-sensitive, compact test platform
that tests the full device signaling protocol stack, from the radio
layer all the way up to the network services, multi-media, and
applications layer. In the past, these tests required a combination of
computers, RF testers, and network test equipment. The innovative S-CAT
6010 replaces all that with a compact, 19-inch unit. The S-CAT 6010
reduces test costs for pre- and post-launch testing; it allows testing
of features and capture of issues early in R&D. The S-CAT 6010 can
perform tests in true-to-life network conditions, such as poor or
disruptive radio connectivity, and high or fluctuating network latency—all
within a lab environment. Scenarios are highly repeatable and diagnostic
information is clear.
“By providing smart engineering products,
setcom wireless is pushing the envelope. Our test tool offers the
ability to test combined feature sets with a high level of control on
how each layer is performing under repeatable and challenging network
conditions,” said Dan Quant, senior product
manager at setcom wireless.
About the S-CAT 6010 wireless protocol test system
The S-CAT 6010 wireless protocol test system performs combined testing
of multiple feature sets from the radio layer through the applications
layer. It can test two devices connected to each other (mobile to
mobile) through one S-CAT system. The S-CAT 6010 supports GSM, GPRS,
EDGE, W-CDMA, and UMA/GAN. The versatile wireless test system is ideal
for a wide variety of test scenarios, including:
-
Engineers developing new feature sets for wireless devices such as
fixed mobile convergence, security algorithms, IP Multi-media
Subsystem (IMS), and All IP-based services and applications;
-
Managers and engineers in functional/system/field/lab testing
departments of operators, chipset, or device manufacturers;
-
Wireless gaming companies developing online games that require a
low-cost solution to provide wireless connectivity to IP-based
external servers or the Internet while measuring performance under
real-life environments and usage;
-
Mobile-to-mobile capability for real-time testing between two devices
including audio codec analysis, messaging, and content sharing; and
-
Point-to-point secure communications markets.
