The WiMAX Forume has selected its standardisation test lab and announces a certification roadmap that marks July 2005 for the launch of the WiMAX Forum Certifiede program.
The WiMAX Forum selected Cetecom Spain as its official certification laboratory, achieving a critical milestone toward enabling the commercial availability of WiMAX Forum Certifiede products. Acting as an independent body, Cetecom will test and certify WiMAX Forum member companies' products to ensure they meet WiMAX Forum conformance and interoperability standards.
“Since January 2003, the WiMAX Forum has been committed to driving growth and innovation in broadband wireless access through industry standards,” said WiMAX Forum President Ron Resnick. “Preparation of the test lab is the last step in the process before we begin accepting equipment for certification. The lion's share of work has been done – we are in the home stretch.”
The selection of Cetecom is the culmination of a rigorous 12-month review process by the WiMAX Forum. Cetecom was chosen for its extensive range of testing and compliance services, which includes experience in wireless technologies such as GSM/ GPRS, EDGE, W-CDMA, Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth®. Headquartered in Spain, Cetecom has affiliate regional labs, which will allow WiMAX Forum members worldwide to easily access the testing facilities.
