S8710A Device Benchmarking Toolset

The S8710A Device Benchmarking Toolset enables device makers and mobile operators to automate testing and reporting across different device builds and models.

This automated solution offers standardized scoring of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), allowing normalized comparison of the overall performance of different software and hardware builds, or the evaluation of your device’s performance compared to competitor devices.

The solution offers:

• Fully automated end-to-end test environment for benchmarking devices produced by any manufacturer or devices built using modems from any chipset maker
• Automated benchmark report generation for the device under test
• User-definable ranking of individual KPIs to determine the device’s overall score
• Comparison reports showing the rank, scores and KPIs from a range of devices
• Pre-defined test cases to obtain KPI measurements
• High-volume testing and repeatability

With S8710A Device Benchmarking Toolset, you will gain objective insight into comparable 5G device features and selected KPIs. The toolset comes with advanced test automation capabilities that enable high-volume testing and repeatability – directly improving product quality and minimizing the risk of human error.

With the S8710A Device Benchmarking Toolset, you can objectively benchmark and compare the performance of devices and software and hardware builds with one single tool. The toolset may be used to ensure the high quality of 5G devices and increase customer satisfaction, or to evaluate, compare and select the best devices in the market. The toolset automatically creates a benchmark report for each device under test, along with an overall score and rank for each tested device. Advanced test automation capabilities enable you to optimize the performance of your new 5G devices and accelerate their time-to-market.

The toolset combines Keysight’s UXM 5G Wireless Test Platform and Nemo Outdoor with the new Nemo 5G Device Analytics software. This software may also be used to enable device troubleshooting, via the correlation of logs from the device under test with logs from the network emulator, providing an end-to-end view of the communication exchanges to enable in-depth analysis and pinpointing of device issues.
