FACTSware Testplatforms
The new dimension of mobile
communications testing
The ever-increasing bandwidth and implementation of different technologies in a device enhances the required testing effort for market entry. Despite the increased amount of testing, cost-efficiency and a quick turnaround time must be obtained.
CETECOM’s FACTSware test system family
meets the challenge.
- Satisfying R&D, regulatory, conformance and protocol testing requirements
- Providing a low cost test solution equipped with state-of-the-art measuring components from a number of renowned manufacturers
- Implementation of different technologies on one platform
- Flexibility for upgrades towards new technologies
- Enabling automatic multiple DUT testing without operator intervention
- Automatic calibration routines that increase the availability for test projects
- Acceleration of test procedures
The sophisticated system architecture guarantees unrivalled uncertainty figures with a confidence level of 95 percent since CETECOM sets high value on stringent accuracy. The measurement uncertainty is based on industry standards (ETSI TR 100028).
The graphical user interface enables manual access to all system components including the switch unit so individual settings can be carried out.
The hardware design of the RF switch unit includes components that are fail-safe minimizing breakdown times of the systems. The optimized software design accelerates test procedures considerably reducing testing time.
For FACTSware customers, CETECOM offers the proprietary database “FACTS_issue” enabling the FACTSware user to report issues and bugs independent from time and place directly to the FACTSware development team.
The FACTSware family: RFRD & RFCO
The FACTSware product line includes two different test platform families:
Two of the FACTSware RFCO configurations are already accepted by GCF and PVG/PTCRB as official certification test platforms TP67 (FACTSware RFCO 6750) and TP86 (FACTSware RFCO 6751). In the future, CETECOM’s FACTSware product portfolio will be continuously enhanced as technologies and standards evolve.
