(NYSE: KEYS), a leading technology company that helps enterprises, service providers and governments accelerate innovation to connect and secure the world, announced that the company's 5G conformance test solutions have been selected by Korea Testing Laboratory (KTL) for global 5G new radio (NR) device certification.
KTL, an internationally renowned certification body, selected Keysight's 5G solutions for 5G NR device testing related to 5G radio frequency (RF) and protocol conformance validation as specified by 3GPP. Keysight's 5G solutions offer early access to a leading number of 5G NR conformance protocol and RF test cases validated by the Global Certification Forum (GCF) and PTCRB. This enables KTL to speed performance verification of new 5G devices for customers based in Korea and abroad.
KTL is the first test house in Korea to address 5G radio frequency (RF) and protocol conformance test requirements in both sub-6GHz (FR1) and mmWave (FR2) frequencies using Keysight solutions. These solutions deliver a wide range of protocol, RF transmission and reception, RF demodulation and radio resource management (RRM) test cases on a common platform for cost-effective 5G NR device certification.
"Keysight's 5G test solutions allow KTL, Korea's only public testing and certification organization, to efficiently support our customers with holistic services," said Tae-seung Song, director at KTL. "Strategic collaborations, such as the one we've successfully established with Keysight, enable us to improve the nation's industrial competitiveness and enhance the quality of communications through testing certification and technical support."
