Significant enhancements to Spirent Communications’ Octobox Wi-Fi testing solutions were recently released. These improvements are meant to meet the changing needs of equipment manufacturers and Internet service providers (ISPs).
With the introduction of Wi-Fi 7 and the growing number of connected devices, Wi-Fi is continuing to evolve quickly, and Spirent’s cutting-edge testing platforms are ready to guarantee reliable, high-performance connectivity for both enterprises and consumers.
Automated Testbed in the New Octobox Portfolio
New pre-configured automated testbeds created especially to thoroughly test access points, devices, and mesh systems for Wi-Fi 7 are a significant addition to the Octobox portfolio.
The world’s first isolated-chamber testbed created especially for testing, validating, and optimizing the performance of consumer endpoint devices connected to Wi-Fi 7 has been developed by Octobox, building on previous configurable configurations.
This testbed is known to revolutionize testing for a variety of devices, from phones and VR goggles to refrigerators and drones.
Mesh Backhaul Testing
Furthermore, Spirent has created a setup especially for testing mesh networks, a significant development in Wi-Fi technology.
Faster backhaul lines are one particular area where Wi-Fi 7’s benefits can be especially helpful: mesh backhaul testing. The testing method makes sure that overall performance in a mesh network stays stable and reliable even as more devices join and function inside it.
To make sure mesh networks can manage the demands of numerous devices and offer seamless coverage, testing for throughput and resilience is essential.
Capable of Testing Evolving Wi-Fi 7 Standards
In its official release, Spirent reaffirms that Octobox is the only platform capable of thoroughly testing the demanding Wi-Fi 7 standards by describing the special features of Wi-Fi 7 both today and in the future as the test cases and requirements change.
Octobox combines the most advanced automation software with high performance instrumentation and analysis capabilities to create a controlled environment that replicates real-world conditions.
Its modular design allows for easy upgrades and the ability to emulate multiple devices or stations. With Octobox, setting up Wi-Fi 7 tests is made easier, testing takes less time, and it is more repeatable, all of which can result in useful business results.
