Antenna Verification and Uplink Testing
Accelerates Commissioning Process
PCTEL, Inc. (NASDAQ:PCTI), a leader in Performance
Critical Telecom solutions, announced today the new
release of its SeeHawk® Touch Android-based network testing
software. Features included in SeeHawk Touch 1.4 will simplify
commissioning for DAS and small cell networks. These networks
provide high-speed wireless coverage for in-building venues,
educational or office campuses, and crowded city centers.
“In-building networks often require time intensive manual
commissioning procedures,” said David Neumann, PCTEL’s Senior Vice
President and General Manager, RF Solutions. “SeeHawk Touch cuts
through this complexity by automating many of the required
measurements. It can reduce the time to commission a system by 50
percent,” added Neumann.
New SeeHawk Touch features include the antenna verification tool
and uplink testing for the Signal Analyzer. These features save
engineers time while ensuring proper installation and configuration
of network equipment. The antenna verification tool identifies
malfunctioning or missing antennas in real time. SeeHawk Touch
collects data from PCTEL’s industry-leading IBflex® scanning
receiver. Utilizing the antenna verification feature, SeeHawk Touch
checks antenna signals in the IBflex data against the network
design, available via iBwave Mobile Planner and iBwave Mobile Note.
The uplink testing feature enhances PCTEL’s IBflex Signal Analyzer
option. The Signal Analyzer option connects the IBflex to the
radio-head end and quickly identifies issues such as high noise
floors without additional, expensive equipment.
SeeHawk Touch enables PCTEL customers to leverage their IBflex
investment. SeeWave®, SeeHawk Engage™, and the Signal Analyzer
option all utilize the IBflex platform to deliver comprehensive
benchmarking, optimization, and interference management services.
SeeHawk Touch and SeeHawk Analytics transform IBflex data into
graphic visualizations of network performance that inform
engineering decisions.
