The MD8475A Signaling Tester simulates 2G, 3G, LTE, and mixed-generation wireless networks and conducts end-to-end testing of applications that run on these networks. An enhanced wireless network simulator GUI enables multimode, dual-cell capability including handovers. Server applications can be installed for one-instrument, end-to-end application testing, and up to eight external servers can be linked to the tester through the Ethernet connection.
The MD8475A tests devices including GSM/GPRS/E-GPRS, 1xRTT, 1xEV-DO, W-CDMA/HSPA, TD-SCDMA, and FDD-LTE. Category 3 LTE devices can be evaluated using a downlink IP-layer throughput to 100 MB/s (including 2 x 2 MIMO) and uplink throughput to 50 MB/s. It also accommodates mobile device applications such as SMS/MMS, browsing, and streaming plus the effect of advanced applications on a device’s battery performance.
