Skylo non-terrestrial network certification program
- Solution supports test cases for the Skylo non-terrestrial
certification program
Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) announces that its
RF/RRM Carrier Acceptance Toolset (RCAT) has enabled SGS to become
a facilitator for the Skylo Technologies non-terrestrial network
(NTN) device certification program.
With the goal of extending secure and reliable connectivity
across their entire geographical footprint, mobile operators are
exploring the adoption of the hybrid satellite-terrestrial network
architecture of NTN. Chipset and device makers need tools that can
validate and certify their products for these new networks.
Recognizing this need, SGS added narrowband (NB) NTN
certification to its portfolio. They chose the Keysight RCAT
solution because it offers robust support for the validated Skylo
test cases. Based, in part, on the strength of RCAT and the close
collaboration among all three companies, SGS was made Skylo’s first
authorized third-party test lab. This supports the continued growth
of Skylo’s device certification program and confidence in the
larger NTN ecosystem.
The use of the RCAT solution by SGS further strengthens
Keysight’s position as the leading test equipment vendor for the
Skylo certification program and NTN testing. Keysight and Skylo are
continuing to collaborate on supplementary tests for future
releases of Skylo's NTN certification program. This ongoing
commitment to innovation underscores Keysight’s dedication to the
long-term success of NTN development since the initial test case
release in September 2023.
Fred Yang, Vice President of SGS Connectivity & Products,
said: “Our collaboration with Keysight and Skylo
empowers SGS to provide high-quality products and services that
align with the evolving needs of our clients. As the first test lab
to receive Skylo approval, SGS is now well-positioned to offer
timely certification services to a wide range of device
manufacturers.”
Dr. Andrew Nuttall, Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder
at Skylo Technologies, said: “This partnership expedites the
device certification process through validated Skylo test cases,
ensuring strict compliance with Skylo and industry standards
through Keysight solutions. This significant milestone enables
devices to be fully compatible and seamlessly integrated with the
Skylo satellite network ensuring the best performance.”
Lucas Hansen, Vice President of Keysight’s Wireless Devices
and Operators, said: “As an NTN pioneer that has developed and
prioritized certification testing, Keysight is pleased to support
SGS in enhancing its testing services through the Skylo NTN
certification program. The inclusion of accredited labs marks a
crucial step toward accelerating the deployment of the NTN devices
to digitally connect all parts of the world.”
