Keysight Technologies Helps China Telecom's NB-IoT Test

[China Instrument Network Instrumentation Enterprise] Keysight Technologies announced that its Cellular-IoT test solution supports China Telecom's NB-IoT test program, accelerating the chip and module standard certification process.

The E7515A NB-IoT comprehensive test instrument provided by Keysight Technologies has demonstrated powerful functions in terms of consistency and power consumption testing, and is currently the only company that can provide these test solutions at the same time.

NB-IoT is a narrowband-based cellular IoT technology defined by 3GPP. By utilizing the existing network infrastructure, mobile operators can quickly deploy various applications and services based on the Internet of Things. NB-IoT has significant advantages over other technologies in the Internet of Things. Many operators around the world have also announced their support for this technology.

The innovation of NB-IoT technology also brings new challenges to new equipment in terms of power consumption performance and so on. In order to deal with the potential problems of deployment and commercial use of NB-IoT, operators have developed tests for NB-IoT to ensure the user experience. Keysight and China Telecom have conducted close cooperation on NB-IoT testing and have recently conducted test verification.

"Keysight's UXM-based solution is the first solution on the market to support NB-IoT and CatM1 RF specifications and power consumption testing. The cooperation with China Telecom and other industry pioneers enables Keysight to become a provider of product design. , verification, interoperability, and carrier-certified full set of cellular IoT test solution providers,” said Garrett Lees, senior director of wireless operators and laboratories at Keysight Technologies.
