The WiMax Forum has approved Runcom’s Pico and Base Station product. It completed the WiMax Forum Wave-2 Certification process. The base station is heavy duty and able to withstand outdoor conditions. It is upgradeable and can go from 2×2 MIMO to 4×4. It can also upgrade to support LTE, multi-frequency band support, and up to 20MHz [...]

Rohde & Schwarz’s communication tester is the ideal solution for extended end-to-end performance tests and enables throughput measurements up to the physical limit of 31.6 Mbit/s in DL, 2X2 MIMO. The signaling stack of the R&S CMW270 WiMax communication tester, made up of PHY and protocol (MAC) layer, supports maximum data rates in downlink and uplink. A [...]
