Communicating in a statement, the company says that the product provides a “self-contained, end-to-end” MCX IWF testing environment, incorporating standards including TETRA ISI, P25 ISSI/CSSI, and GSM-R FRMCS.
Valid8 describes Virtual Labs as a “pioneering new toolset for all stages of the product lifecycle.” It is intended to “provide businesses across industries with flexible, cost-effective solutions for a full suite of simulation and testing applications.”
The statement continues: “As industries make the transition from traditional data transmission to broadband for mission critical communications, it becomes vital that legacy technologies integrate seamlessly with newer technologies.
“TETRA-MCX interworking is essential to ensuring the reliability of communication across voice and data. The Valid8 MCX IWF Virtual Lab enables the emulation of IWF, MCX, and TETRA ISI, along with other standards such as P25 and GSM-R.
“Valid8 Virtual Labs offers unique solutions across mobile communications, mission critical landscapes plus 5G, 4G, IoT, V2X, VoIP, and IMS among other industry applications.
“Businesses can accelerate their development efforts or use the end-to-end emulation for training or demonstration purposes. [And] with an intuitive, browser-based interface and RESTful API, organisations can now enjoy quick implementation and easy customisation of testing processes.”
