EMITE and Rohde & Schwarz Partnership Elevates OTA Measurements for Wi-Fi 7 and 5G RedCap Technology
EMITE and Rohde & Schwarz are working together to improve EMITE's Over-the-Air (OTA) measurement solutions by incorporating the advanced test features of the R&S CMX500 multi-technology, multi-channel signaling tester. This integration not only supports LTE, FR1, and FR2, but also ensures compliance with the latest WLAN standard IEEE 802.11be and 5G RedCap.
EMITE's advanced over-the-air chambers can now be integrated with the cutting-edge testing capabilities of the R&S CMX500 one-box signaling tester from Rohde & Schwarz. This radio communication tester can test a wide range of devices, including those using LTE, 5G NR FR1 up to 8 GHz, and FR2 millimeter wave up to 50 GHz, along with the latest 5G RedCap technology. It also supports non-cellular technologies like Wi-Fi 7, all within a single instrument. Through this partnership, EMITE's customers can accurately evaluate the performance of Wi-Fi 7 and 5G Red Cap devices in a comprehensive testing environment.
EMITE's upgraded OTA chambers are completely prepared to meet the demanding testing needs of both current and upcoming wireless technologies. The next phase of the partnership involves exploring the incorporation of test functionalities for NB-IoT NTN and NR NTN, which are already supported by the R&S CMW500 and R&S CMX500 devices.
Wi-Fi 7, also known as IEEE 802.11be standard, is the upcoming Wi-Fi technology that is designed to provide even faster data speeds than its predecessor, Wi-Fi 6/6E (IEEE 802.11ax). With the capability to handle tens of gigabits of data per second and minimal delay, Wi-Fi 7 is ideal for meeting the increasing need for high-quality video streaming, virtual reality experiences, and augmented reality applications.
RedCap is a type of 5G technology that is outlined in 3GPP Release 17. It is a simplified version of 5G that is more affordable than 5G eMBB. RedCap is known for its moderate data speeds, energy efficiency, simplicity, and capacity to connect numerous devices, making it ideal for Internet of Things (IoT) uses.
The CEO of EMITE, David A. Sánchez-Hernández, expressed the company's dedication to providing high-quality products and satisfying customers. EMITE is thrilled to enhance their testing chambers with the R&S CMX500, which will allow customers to incorporate the IEEE 802.11be standard and Red Cap devices. This collaboration highlights EMITE's commitment to delivering advanced testing solutions that meet the changing needs of the telecommunications industry.
Christoph Pointner, who holds the position of Senior Vice President of Mobile Radio Testers at Rohde & Schwarz, expressed satisfaction in enhancing the partnership with EMITE. This collaboration allows EMITE's clients to confidently use their devices for cutting-edge technologies, as their products undergo thorough testing to ensure they meet strict standards of reliability and efficiency. This is made possible by integrating Rohde & Schwarz's R&S CMX500 one-box signaling tester into EMITE's OTA chambers portfolio.
