- The Telecommunication Engineering Centre has commissioned a Lab for measurement of Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) for the mobile handsets. SAR is closely related to electric field strengths produced inside human body tissues while making calls. Lower the value of SAR, safer the mobile handset for the human use.
- The TEC SAR Lab is one of its kind as it is the first lab in India for independent audit of SAR value, self-certified by mobile handset manufacturers and importers in India.
- This Lab is capable of making SAR measurement for CDMA, GSM 2G and 3G mobile handsets in the frequency band of 800 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz and 2100 MHz.
Next Generation Network
- The Next Generation Network (NGN) lab in TEC is a unique test infrastructure in the country which is capable of subjecting Internet Protocol (IP) based equipment for Conformance and Interoperability testing.
- NGN lab has the capability to test both IPv4 and IPv6 and the migration scenarios. The lab also supports the NGN based Interconnection and Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP).
- The lab is upgradable from the present 1G/10G Electrical/Optical Interfaces to 40G/100G optical interfaces. The test facility can also be augmented to take care of testing of Cloud Computing based implementations.
