Radcom and Comarco team on 3G testing
November 23, 2004
RADCOM, a network test and service monitoring solutions provider and Comarco, a provider of wireless test solutions, announced a partnership agreement. The collaboration will allow development of a next-generation testing solution that integrates both companies' core technologies for service monitoring of 2.5G and 3G networks including GPRS, UMTS and CDMA2000.
The next-generation solution will allow service providers and vendors to improve efficiency and end-to-end analysis of cellular networks. The solution will correlate network abnormalities by combining Comarco's Seven.Five radio frequency (RF) technology with RADCOM's Cellular Expert solution, which relies on hardware probes for its network data. This will enable service providers to validate the end-users' quality of service by performance monitoring of the entire network from the RF through to radio access, core signaling and IP. Furthermore, the combined solution will simplify troubleshooting of jitter, packet loss, jerkiness, noise and audio/video synchronization problems across data, voice and video telephony. It will help mobile device vendors and network operators to build and maintain networks that consistently provision high quality services such as video telephony, video streaming, and E-mail.
"We are confident that combining forces with a market leader such as Comarco will produce a sophisticated and comprehensive solution for service providers and vendors," said David Ripstein General Manager of products and technologies at RADCOM.
"As competition amongst service providers worldwide grows, the demand for quality of service test and optimization solutions increases," said Greg Maton, Senior Vice President of Comarco. "We are certain that with RADCOM's technological advantages, this next-generation testing tool will be a powerful solution, offering service providers and vendors an array of benefits."
