E6703I W-CDMA/HSPA Lab Application

Industry leading W-CDMA/HSPA/HSPA+ one-box network emulator for mobile data analysis, RF, and functional test

The Keysight E6703I lab application software runs on the industry-standard 8960 Series 10 (E5515C/E) wireless communications test set providing network emulation and mobile device design, integration, and validation test tools designed specifically for the needs of wireless developers. This test solution offers the highest sustained packet-switched data rates, the most 3GPP standards-compliant RF measurements, real-time protocol logging, optional digital fading, and useful analysis tools.

With the latest support for RF, functional, and baseband fading testing for HSDPA MIMO and DB-DC-HSDPA, E6703I provides the industry’s leading HSPA+ evolution testing solution. It also supports the complete inter-RAT capabilities with LTE (requires the Keysight E6621A PXT wireless communications test set for LTE).

Stay current! Get early access to the latest lab application features with the Keysight E6720A annual contract. The annual contract provides a permanent license for any lab application releases occurring within the term of the contract as well as automatic notification when new subscription releases are available. Subscription releases provide early access to new features and are only available to E6720A lab application annual contract owners.
