AMARI LTE Callbox
Packaged in a plug and play integrated PC,
AMARI Callbox Mini is an ideal solution for LTE
and NR testing of all types of user equipment
with advanced configuration.
It acts as a 3GPP compliant eNodeB, gNodeB,
EPC and 5GC allowing functional and
performance testing of NR (SA mode), LTE, LTE-A,
LTE-M and NB-IoT devices. The offer is completed
by an integrated IMS server as well as an eMBMS
gateway for VoLTE and eMBMs testing.
The Callbox is powered by a deployment quality
LTE and NR software suite offering the same level
of baseband functionality as an indoor/outdoor
network.
