CETECOM Selects Anite to Increase LTE Test System Capacity
FLEET, England, September 18, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
Anite's solutions are deployed to meet higher demand for LTE device testing
CETECOM, one of the world's leading test laboratories, has selected Anite, a global
leader in wireless device testing technology, to expand their test system capacity, in
order to meet an increased demand for LTE device testing. This recent purchase of Anite
LTE systems for both conformance and interoperability testing further strengthens the
close partnership CETECOM and Anite have enjoyed for over fifteen years.
Due to LTE's rapid growth, device manufacturers are having to pass an increasing
number of test cases to achieve GCF certification. Anite is responsible for the
verification of over 80% of the circa 460 LTE Release-8 protocol tests and offers the
greatest number of unique GCF validated test cases. This leading test case coverage was a
key factor in CETECOM's selection of Anite's solutions to increase its LTE test system
capacity.
The Anite equipment will be installed at CETECOM's facility in Essen Germany. However,
Anite's unique 'floating license' model enables CETECOM to flexibly share access to
Anite's LTE device testing software and hardware across their global locations; removing
the need to purchase licenses for multiple locations. The majority of CETECOM's customers,
which include the world's leading chipset and device manufacturers, are already using
Anite's solutions for device pre-certification testing. This synergy was a significant
contributing factor in CETECOM's decision to select Anite to enhance their test system
capacity.
"In the process of certifying new devices, consistency of test equipment across the
device ecosystem offers significant advantages, as it ensures a quicker and smoother
acceptance process," said Paul Beaver, Products Director at Anite. "We are very pleased to
continue to support CETECOM. Their worldwide accredited testing facilities offer
state-of-the-art testing services, approved certification and independent consulting for
the telecommunications and information technology industries."
"As a long standing partner of CETECOM, Anite offers leading LTE test case coverage,
which made them a preferred choice in meeting this surge in demand for comprehensive LTE
device testing," said Thorsten Stabenau, Director of Corporate Marketing and Sales at
CETECOM.
