An Innovative Design and Production Test
Solution Designed for Real-World Testing of Cellular Voice,
Internet Browsing, Streaming Videos and Other Services
LitePoint, a leading provider of wireless test solutions, today
announced the LitePoint IQcell™ multi-device cellular signaling
test solution which enables user experience testing of LTE cellular
devices.
The IQcell is designed for mobile device original equipment
manufacturers (OEMs) to test performance of popular device uses
such as mobile hotspot functionality, voice-over-LTE (VoLTE)
calling, internet browsing and streaming videos. Testing for each
of these applications is done via an over-the-air connection that
mimics true user experience scenarios. User experience is critical
for testing today’s incredibly complex devices and ensures that the
device will work in customer hands as designed, under every day
usage.
IQcell provides a fast, efficient method to pinpoint the root
cause of failures reported by a user so device repair service
centers can use IQcell and IQservice software to perform RF
parametric testing on phones returned by customers. This enables
device makers and carriers to repair faulty phones and reduce the
cost of replacing easily repaired phones with new ones.
“User experience is key to a device’s success and the IQcell
helps OEMs and service centers see what a user sees instead of
trying to translate some parametric measurements into a user’s
actual experience with the product,” said Adam Smith, Director of
Product Marketing at LitePoint. “We are constantly seeking to
improve the testing experience making it faster and less expensive
so that more devices can be cost effectively tested. With IQcell,
we’ve reduced the time and cost of test so that device makers don’t
have to risk product quality because they can quickly and
efficiently complete a variety of signaling tests on multiple
devices simultaneously.”
Technical Highlights
Available in 2-port and 8-port configurations, IQcell supports
LTE-FDD, LTE-TDD, WCDMA/HSPA and GSM. The IQcell 2-port
configuration enables rapid diagnostic of IoT device cellular radio
quality and the automated test system detects the cellular radio
capability by running a pre-defined set of test cases.
The IQcell 8-port configuration increases test capacity with up
to four devices running concurrently on four separate cells and
each cell has a dedicated measurement system for high speed, high
accuracy, technology specific parametric measurements.
IQcell is available today. For more information, visit
