CAT-iq Certification Program

CAT-iq is a synonym for excellent features with respect to audio quality, interoperability and wideband transmission abilities.

The DECT-Forum, which has taken over the provision of relevant DECT standards, has set up the CAT-iq requirements as well as the related test and certification standards. CAT-iq – a trademark of the DECT-Forum – is the quality mark showing evidence that the relevant product has borne exhaustive testing for audio quality, RF interface compliance, protocol correctness and interoperability.

The CAT-iq mark is now available through the testing and certification services at CETECOM, who can provide all respective services which are required to launch a CAT-iq product on the various world markets. Besides excellent quality the CAT-iq Certification will give you the additional benefit of ensuring the interoperability with many devices of different manufacturers for a wide range of functions.
