The 3100 mobile fault finder is a novel communication test set for the testing of wireless devices on the shop floor at the point of sale, point of return, for incoming inspection in repair centres and final testing after repair and calibration.
The new instrument initially supports GSM, Edge and UMTS (WCDMA) and will be upgradable to CDMA2000 and future technologies.
Together with the 4916 antenna coupler, the 4920 RF shield box and an up-to-date list for supported phones that is downloadable from the Internet, Willtek provides a complete solution to support go/no-go testing of the latest wireless devices like mobile phones, wireless PDAs and Edge/UMTS data cards.
'With the 3100 and associated products and solutions, Willtek provides continued support to first-level service centres at the same high level as for the previous well-known products like the 4100 Series and 4350Series Mobile Fault Finders', explained Cyrille Damany, CEO of Willtek Communications.
He continued: 'The 3100 is the first wireless device tester for GSM, Edge and UMTS at a price level affordable to low and mid-level service centres'.
'Taking our free customer support into account, Willtek offers a complete solution at an unmatched price-performance ratio, especially considering the total cost of ownership over the whole lifecycle'.
The Willtek 3100 is a go/no-go tester for wireless devices designed for GSM and UMTS (WCDMA).
When a customer returns a seemingly malfunctioning mobile phone, the shop assistant can easily determine if the phone is indeed defective.
The test only takes a minute and helps the shop save money it would have spent on handset replacement, shipping and repair.
Three levels of results provide comprehensive information: a pass/fail indication, a simple test report indicating the module that is likely to be defective, or the detailed test report with complete measurement results.
Although easy to use by non-technical personnel, the 3100 provides highly reliable test results.
Willtek offers a complete testing solution for the point of sale or return and for service centres.
The 3100 is complemented by the 4916 antenna coupler and the 4920 RF shield box.
The antenna coupler easily connects the wireless device to the tester with a highly stable RF coupling characteristic.
By using the additional 4920RF shield box with its unmatched shielding of 80dB, the user avoids that other mobile phones and nearby basestations affect the test results.
Conversely, the RF shield box also prevents the mobile phone's radiation from interfering with nearby Basestation signals.
These Willtek products are readily available and supported, as Willtek provides an always up-to-date list of RF coupling factors for all common mobile phones on the Internet for easy download into the test set, for tests both with or without the RF shield box.
