DOCSIS and PacketCable device suppliers have consistently asked Kyrio to reduce the total amount of time a device spends in Certification in order to accelerate their sales cycle. With this in mind, we’ve created a pre-testing program that helps suppliers to save precious time and resources.
Pre-Testing for DOCSIS® and PacketCable™ 1.5 Certification
Accelerating DOCSIS Certification
Kyrio offers a Pre-testing program for DOCSIS Certification that rewards suppliers for submitting devices for Certification that test cleanly and quickly. This program will also help to:
-
- Ensure that future devices will test cleanly as well
-
- Debug an issue or verify a fix for an issue
-
- Test specific areas of a device:
- PHY compliance of new hardware
- Immunity against Wi-Fi or LTE
- Additional features: (Profile Management, LLD)
- Upcoming 4.0 Features
- Test specific areas of a device:
Pre-Testing for PacketCable Certification
Full Pre-Testing executes the complete suite of PC 1.5 Certification tests. The differences between Full Pre-testing and normal Certification testing are:
- Full Pre-testing results are returned only to the manufacturer, whereas Certification results are reported to the Certification Board for a Certification decision
- Full Pre-testing results may be requested independently of DOCSIS Certification testing, whereas PacketCable Certification testing must always be conducted in tandem with DOCSIS Certification testing
Reduced Pre-Testing is a comprehensive subset of tests from each PacketCable 1.5 Specification test plan, plus short duration system test scenarios:
Reduced Pre-Testing executes core protocol tests from:
-
- Network-based Call Signaling (NCS)
- Management Event MIB (MEM)
- Dynamic Quality of Service (DQoS)
- Security
- Provisioning (PROV)
- CODEC
Reduced Pre-Testing System testing scenarios include one hour runs for:
-
- On-net voice
- On-net Fax
- On-net DTMF
