R&S®CMW500 Protocol Test

• Speed up your development by using the R&S®CMW500 - Production Test tester in all stages of R&D up to certification of handset lifecycle
• Save hardware investments by reusing the R&S®CMW500 - Production Test tester in several fields of application from RF test to protocol test
• Rely on mature and proven 3GPP and 3GPP2 reference implementations of a widely accepted test platform in the mobile eco system
• Combine several R&S®CMW500 - Production Test testers into multi-CMW setups to test mobile devices within complex radio environment simulations
• Covers pure protocol stack signaling verification or functional tests as well as performance tests in a single tester

Create wireless signaling tests on the R&S®CMW500 - Production Test wideband radio communication tester just by setting up a hand of cards – no programming required

Revolutionary card wizards and unique game rules guide you through setting up test sequences that fully comply with test specifications.
