The test was conducted in June.

“We’re delighted CATR is successfully using our N6430A to perform protocol conformance testing,” said Niels Faché, Agilent’s Mobile Broadband Operation general manager. “As the WiMAX Forum’s Designated Certification Laboratory in mainland China, CATR plays a leading role in enabling WiMAX products to reach world markets, especially in Asia.”
