1 SGS E&E wireless telecommuicatios testig & certificatio worldwide WIRELESS TESTING AT ITS BEST

2 HISTORY A PROOF OF COMPETENCE global leader & iovator Recogized as a bechmark for quality ad itegrity, SGS Wireless is a leadig global supplier of complete solutios for wireless testig ad certificatio services. With competece cetres i key coutries i Europe, North America ad Asia, SGS operates a highly-experieced ad kowledgeable etwork committed to iovatio ad improvemet. Our capabilities are expadig costatly to give our cliets the competitive edge they eed i a icreasigly regulated world. wireless team & laboratories SGS started buildig its etwork of GSM/UMTS competece cetres for wireless telecommuicatio i Asia with four wireless test laboratories i Taiwa, Chia, Japa ad Korea. SGS became the North America leader i CDMA testig by acquirig Wireless Test Systems Ic. ad reiforced its market positio i Europe by purchasig the former 7 Layers UK. The expasio by SGS of the Cambridge, UK-based test laboratory added Applicatio Eablers, used i may of the media rich termials of today, alog with testig services for Geeric Access Network (GAN) ad Assisted-Global Positioig System (A-GPS) specific Applicatio Eablers. Accredited by the Uited Kigdom Accreditatio Service (UKAS) to ISO 17025, SGS Wireless is the oly Europea facility to offer all these testig services uder oe roof. The lab is accredited for GCF ad PTCRB testig, ad the testig is performed o multiple platforms for both 2G ad 3G techologies, which eables devices to meet the requiremets laid out i 3GPP, OMA ad IMTC specificatios. The combiatio of services offered by the established Durham laboratory ad the Europea offerig i 2008 with Safety, EMC ad Notified Body for the R&TTE EU Directive are ow icluded withi the services portfolio. Techology road maps for 2010 will esure that wireless laboratories ca supply their customer base with the latest testig techology for wireless termials ad devices. To eable the Wireless group laboratories to operate efficietly, SGS ivested i the itroductio of LabSURE, a project ad laboratory maagemet software program. It has bee developed to allow laboratories worldwide to ru customer projects across multiple laboratories ad esure the precise maagemet of hardware ad software of the validated test systems. 2

4 A GLOBAL PARTNER... the global certificatio forum (GCF) Lauched by the GSM Associatio i April, 2000, GCF is a idepedet program that operates i partership with global maufacturers to verify ad moitor a global volutary certificatio process for testig GSM hadsets ad termial devices. Today the GCF cotiues to work verifyig devices agaist the Forum s techical requiremets. These requiremets have expaded by over 250% sice 2000, with global recogitio ad acceptace of results, avoidace of multiple testig ad added cost efficiecies. The program icludes at a miimum, the GSM frequecy bads ad multi- mode devices as well as several selected applicatio eablers (e.g. OMA MMS ad 3GPP CS Video Telephoy). It is complemetary to all regulatory regimes with participatio o a volutary basis. sgs wireless - your GCF testig parter As a active observer member of GCF, SGS Wireless is ivolved i the techical represetatio of GSM, UMTS ad LTE stadards, as well as the validatio of test platforms ad test cases. For the maufacturer, SGS ca offer full guidace from itroductio to membership, ad fulfilmet of test requiremets withi GCF s global etwork of accredited wireless laboratories. Testig Services iclude: GSM, GPRS, EDGE UMTS (3G) HSPA Applicatio Eablers Field Trials OTA-Atea Performace Measuremet Test Platform Validatio 4

5 ...FOR GSM/UMTS CERTIFICATION the ptcrb certificatio forum PTCRB (PCS Type Certificatio Review Board) is the North America equivalet of the GCF, verifyig stadards compliace for frequecy bads i North America. Formed i 1997 to represet global carriers usig 850/1900 MHz GERAN ad FDD II ad V UTRA bads, PTRCB certificatio esures devices will work efficietly o their etworks.»ptcrb was formed i March 1997 by GSM carriers to create a certificatio program for mobile/ user equipmet utilizig third-party testig. Sice 2004, there has bee a 214% icrease i the umber of certificatios by the PTCRB. This certificatio esures the certified devices meet a miimum set of requiremets givig cofidece to member operators ad their roamig parters that these devices will work efficietly o their etworks. Qualified idepedet laboratories are authorized by the PTCRB to coduct this testig o their behalf. SGS Wireless laboratories have demostrated that they meet the specific set of requiremets by havig the kowledge ad test platforms to test devices to PTCRB test requiremets.«gle scales, ptcrb chairma Further iformatio may be obtaied from the PTCRB website sgs wireless - your ptcrb testig parter SGS Wireless laboratories offer a global service to maufacturers requirig certificatio for PTCRB. Specialists i termial ad modular certificatio, SGS experts have bee coductig this type of certificatio for over 10 years. Our ISO/IEC laboratories are ptcrb authorized to coduct testig FOR: GSM, GPRS, EDGE UMTS (3G) HSPA OTA Performace Coverged Devices Applicatio Eablers gb.wireless@sgs.com 55

8 CDMA device testig... CDMA Code Divisio Multiple Access is a geeral type of digital wireless techology commoly used to refer to oe specific family of techologies (IS-95 ad EVDO - CDMA2000) that competes with techologies such as GSM. It is a iovative form of multiplexig for secod-geeratio (2G) ad third geeratio (3G) wireless commuicatios. Desiged by Qualcomm i the Uited States, CDMA is a proprietary stadard ad it is curretly the domiat etwork stadard for North America ad parts of Asia. As a spread spectrum techology, spreadig the iformatio cotaied i a particular sigal of iterest over a much greater badwidth tha the origial sigal, CDMA is takig the world ito a future with lightig fast access to iformatio, high-performace video at the user s figertips, ad a virtual office that ca travel aywhere. Replacig the already outdated Wi- Fi techologies, emergig CDMA techologies are truly a drivig force i the globalizatio of today s society, brigig a ew excitemet to wireless techology. The first devices lauched have bee data cards, makig it very coveiet for busiess travellers requirig fast access to work, aywhere, aytime. The secod wave of devices (EVDO Rev A) itroduced the features which excited the tech-savvy cosumer, icludig faster data cards, smartphoes ad PDA s. CDMA certificatio forum CDMA Certificatio Forum (CCF) is a iteratioal o-profit partership betwee CDMA operators ad CDMA device vedors to establish ad maitai a core global device certificatio process. This process helps improve quality through cosistet etwork iteroperability, product coformace ad essetial performace testig dictated by iteratioal stadards bodies across the globe. CCF offers the core device certificatio specificatios that other existig certificatio programs ca build upo to satisfy market, operator ad device specific processes. It ca beefit service providers, device maufacturers, test equipmet vedors & ifrastructure maufacturers. sgs - your CDMA testig parter Playig a big factor i the bright future of CDMA is 1xEVDO (Evolutio Data Optimized) Revisio A. This emergig techology boasts a dowload speed of 3.1 Mbps ad a upload speed of 1.8 Mbps which is about 30% faster (etwork to mobile) ad 400% faster (mobile to etwork) tha the curret 1xEVDO Rev. 0 techology. 8
