Enhancell announced today that it had successfully integrated
PCTEL’s (NASDAQ: PCTI) IBflex® with its ECHO™ handheld and
tablet-based tools. These tools are optimized for remote, low-cost,
in-building data collection by technicians. They have strong
applications in field-deployed networks for military or SCADA
applications. Cloud-based or in-vehicle based servers handle all
sophisticated control, processing and analysis. The integration of
IBflex enhances the data and network characterization. Enhancell is
commercially available and deployed in cellular operator and
military applications. PCTEL’s IBflex has been commercially
available for over two years and is the dominant scanning receiver
solution for in-building applications. It has been deployed
globally for benchmarking and optimizing both indoor and outdoor
networks.
Carriers, infrastructure OEMs, and engineering firms can access
the Enhancell cloud-based server on a subscription basis or opt for
a hosted service. The tablets and handheld test tools are available
in single or multi-technology versions. Separately, Enhancell is
disclosing its file format to PCTEL so that all ECHO and Enhancell
data will be available for cloud-based Meridian™ processing.
“We have long recognized PCTEL as the industry leader in
developing and providing flexible and high performance scanning
receivers,” said Pasi Niemi, Enhancell’s founder and CEO. “The
combination of high-quality scanning receiver data and handheld
acquired subscriber data will support network performance
engineering. The ability to utilize cloud-based servers to process
the data will revolutionize the value proposition for test and
measurement solutions,” added Niemi.
“PCTEL encourages test and measurement OEM vendors to integrate
its industry-leading IBflex® as part of their overall solution,”
said Marty Singer, PCTEL’s Chairman and CEO. “Now, with Meridian,
we can offer a hosted, cloud-based analysis of acquired data.
Network information can be stored over long periods of time and
analyzed across geographic and network boundaries. We believe that
cloud-based, crowd-based big data analysis represents the future of
network performance engineering,” added Singer.
