Using Nemo Invex II? Upgrade options to 5G

Many Keysight customers still use their Nemo Invex II test systems for 4G benchmarking but are now looking to upgrade their systems to 5G and to include the latest 5G terminals for verifying the experience and service quality of new 5G networks. For these customers, Keysight offers three cost-effective, Nemo Network Benchmarking Solution (NBM) based options.

Keysight offers three cost-effective, Nemo Network Benchmarking Solution (NBM) based options for upgrading Nemo Invex II systems to 5G.

Upgrade option 1 – Nemo Invex II with NBM

The first option to introduce 5G capabilities into Nemo Invex II is to continue using existing Nemo Invex II hardware and software licenses and extend the system with the NBM control unit. The existing Nemo Invex II chasses are connected to the control unit with a LAN cable, and the 5G test phones are mounted to a table stand and also connected to the control unit. The 5G devices are powered by Nemo Device Interface (NDI) units providing self-healing capabilities which means that Nemo Outdoor can reset unresponsive phones individually. The maximum device count with this setup is 48.

Upgrade option 2 – Nemo Invex II with NBM and Nemo Backpack Pro

The second option is similar to option 1 but instead of a table stand, the 5G devices are mounted to Nemo Backpack Pro units. The NBM control unit can power up and connect multiple Nemo Backpack Pro units into one test system together with Nemo Invex II hardware. Nemo Backpack Pro can be installed in a car with ISOFIX mounts. The maximum device count with this setup is 48.

Upgrade option 3 – Full migration from Nemo Invex II to NBM

The third option is to trade in your Nemo Invex II equipment and SW licenses and fully migrate to NBM. This way you will take full advantage of NBM’s innovative modularity and unique, future-proof design and ensure the competitiveness of your network.
