Fibocom has selected Keysight’s 5G RF DVT Toolset, part of Keysight’s suite of 5G network emulation solutions, to support its strategic goal of delivering connected mobile ecosystems with commercial 5G-powered Internet of Things (IoT) modules. These ecosystems—comprising mobile operators, device manufacturers, and lab testing—are built with leading modem manufacturers such as Qualcomm in mind and utilize Keysight’s 5G network emulation solutions to address 5G design challenges across key markets, including the US, Japan, South Korea, Europe, and China. By using similar testing tools and test cases across the entire ecosystem, users can achieve rapid device performance validation and consistent results.
“Our collaboration with Keysight allows us to address various global spectrum requirements for the efficient development and validation of evolving 5G standards,” said Jianguo Zhang, Director of 5G Testing and R&D Projects at Fibocom. “As a global supplier of wireless communication modules for the consumer electronics and IoT segments, we highly value Keysight’s significant contributions to 5G NR standards and its continued support for the latest standards in its 5G solutions.”.

“We are very excited to help another leading 5G module provider realize the next generation of commercial IoT modules for the PC market,” said Peng Cao, Senior Director of the Commercial Communications Group at Keysight Technologies. “Our 5G common platform design and testing solutions enable device manufacturers like Fibocom to accelerate the validation of 5G NR multi-mode designs in the FR1 and FR2 frequency ranges. This allows mobile operators to quickly track 5G NR deployments across all important 3GPP frequency bands.”
Keysight combines its 5G network emulation solutions with a wide range of purpose-built and proven cameras to provide comprehensive mobile device performance validation capabilities in over-the-air (OTA) test environments. The high levels of flexibility and control contribute to accelerated test case creation and analysis processes.
