E6704A EGPRS (EDGE) Lab Application

The Keysight E6704A is an extension to the E6701 lab application and provides EGPRS (EDGE) functionality. Using the E6704A with the E6701 on an 8960 (E5515C/E5515E) wireless test set creates a powerful Network in a Box -- a one-box test solution that supplies R&D engineers with a network emulator featuring RF measurement capability; comprehensive protocol analysis; and all the tools needed to accurately evaluate EGPRS wireless devices.

Use the E6704A to:

• Validate the interoperability between GSM/GPRS/EGPRS, data, SMS, voice services and demand for networks resources
• Find and resolve difficult signaling functionality and timing issues
• Verify throughput, robustness of radio link control and IP connectivity
• Reduce the cost of test
• Expedite transition from R&D to manufacturing

Note: The E6704A requires an E6701 GSM/GPRS lab application to operate. The E6704A provides a license that enables EGPRS testing within the E6701 lab application. Download the E6701 lab application to access the E6704A functionality.
