TRaC reaffirms relationship with Motorola

TRaC has announced it is to continue its long-standing relationship with Motorola.

Motorola's NBBS remote device software device management platform is used by TRaC - whose testing services include telecommunications, DSL and radio - to test Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) that utilizes the Broadband Forum's TR-069 specification and ensure interoperability.

Alan Lefkof, corporate vice president and general manager of Motorola Mobile Devices and Home, commented: "We are pleased that TRaC continues to rely on our NBBS software platform to perform industry leading interoperability testing - TRaC's reputation, dedication and expertise in the testing and compliance industry are excellent."

TRaC completes testing programs with Realtek

Less than a year after moving its US test operation to its UK headquarters, TRaC has completed a comprehensive testing program for Realtek Semiconductor.

TRaC is accredited by the USA's two largest broadband service providers to carry out DSL testing. This latest set of testing demonstrates that a Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) containing Realtek's ADSL2+ chipset has successfully completed the TR-067 and TR-100 test program requirements for the multiple DSLAMs deployed in North America.

Jessy Chen, vice president from Realtek Semiconductor Corp, commented: "Passing these TRaC testing programs and receiving this accreditation has proved valuable for our business. By successfully completing these tests, our devices may be qualified by major telco carriers to further expand our broadband business in North America. We have worked with TRaC for a number of years and have always had a quick and efficient service from them."

TRaC opened its expanded flagship DSL test facility at its Hull, UK headquarters in November last year following a re-location from its Santa Clara operation. The laboratory is now the most advanced and comprehensive independent DSL testing facility anywhere in the world.
