Lab testing
Production-line testing
Key Features
- Use an intuitive GUI with pre-configured test cases and network profiles.
- Create and playback scenarios, such as an IoT device moving between cells or countries.
- Test 100+ devices on 4G (LTE, LTE-M, NB-IoT) and 5G networks concurrently.
- Test end-to-end connections between your IoT devices, applications, and services over the Internet.
- Run standardized test cases for IoT end devices, such as Total Radiated Power (TRP) and Total Radiated Sensitivity (TRS), according to the ETSI specifications, and pass these certifications on the first attempt.
- Characterize IoT device battery life: Record IoT device power consumption profile and battery discharge profile.
- Have early access to 3GPP features to rapidly validate features under development (3GPP release 17 currently supported).
