Spirent’s Octobox automated testbeds are now
specially configured with key use cases in mind
Spirent Communications plc (LSE:SPT), the leading provider of
test and assurance solutions for next-generation devices and
networks, today announced significant enhancements to its Octobox
Wi-Fi testing solutions, designed to address the evolving needs of
Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and equipment manufacturers. As
Wi-Fi continues its rapid evolution, driven by the increasing
number of connected devices and the rollout of Wi-Fi 7, Spirent's
advanced testing platforms are poised to ensure reliable and
high-performance connectivity for consumers and enterprises
alike.
A key enhancement to the Octobox portfolio is new pre-configured
automated testbeds specifically designed to comprehensively test
access points, devices, and mesh systems for Wi-Fi 7. Building upon
earlier customizable configurations, Octobox has developed the
world's first isolated-chamber testbed designed specifically for
testing, validating, and optimizing the performance of consumer
endpoint devices connected to Wi-Fi 7, which revolutionizes testing
for a range of devices from phones and VR goggles to refrigerators
and drones.
In addition, Spirent has designed a configuration specific to
testing mesh networks, an important trend in Wi-Fi technology. Mesh
backhaul testing is a specific area where the benefits of Wi-Fi 7,
such as faster backhaul links, can be particularly advantageous.
The testing solution ensures that as more devices connect and
operate within a mesh network, the overall performance remains
robust and reliable. This includes testing for throughput and
resilience, which are critical for ensuring that mesh networks can
handle the demands of multiple devices and provide seamless
coverage.
"With the rapid evolution of Wi-Fi technology, our advanced
testing solutions ensure that ISPs can deliver robust,
high-performance connectivity across complex mesh networks and a
growing number of end devices,” said James Kimery, Vice President
of Product Management with Spirent’s Test & Assurance business.
“By addressing the unique challenges of Wi-Fi 7 for each key focus
area, we empower ISPs to provide seamless, reliable service while
reducing support costs and enhancing customer satisfaction."
Octobox is the only platform that can comprehensively test
stringent Wi-Fi 7 standards by characterizing the unique
capabilities of Wi-Fi 7 now and in the future as the requirements
and related test cases evolve. With a modular design for easy
upgrades and the ability emulate multiple devices or stations,
Octobox provides a controlled environment to create real-world
conditions in a repeatable manner, combining high performance
instrumentation and analysis capabilities with the most
sophisticated automation software. Octobox simplifies Wi-Fi 7 test
set-up, reduces testing duration, and enhances repeatability,
resulting in actionable business outcomes.
