Make a Clear Call
The team looks to you: will a new chipset or UE pass the crucial tests? Clarity comes
from accumulated insights, and that's the idea behind the Keysight Technologies Inc.
UXM wireless test set. The UXM is the most highly integrated signaling test set created
for functional and RF design validation in the 4G era and beyond. It provides the capa-
bilities you need to test the newest designs, delivering LTE-Advanced category 7 now
and handling increasingly complex test cases in the future. When the team counts on
you, count on the UXM to help you assess design readiness with greater conidence and
make a clear call.




Overview
This coniguration guide contains a step-by-step process to help you conigure your
E7515A UXM wireless test set with hardware, software, accessories, and services to
meet your speciic test requirements, or to upgrade your existing UXM.

1. Select LTE/LTE-Advanced Test Application or
Lab Application
The "ixed" licenses shown below are tied to a speciic UXM host instrument. "Transportable"
licenses are also offered and allow licenses to be moved between different UXMs. For trans-
portable licensing simply substitute -*TP instead of -*FP in the license part number.

1.1 E7530A LTE/LTE-Advanced test application (TA)
The TA was created to meet the needs of RF design validation, with lexible receiver test,
trusted X-Series transmitter measurement science, and basic network emulation.

Choose the FDD or TDD base option (or both) and desired feature options for additional
functionality.

Feature license Description
E7530A-1FP-FDD FDD, ixed perpetual license
E7530A-1FP-TDD TDD, ixed perpetual license

For details visit www.keysight.com/find/E7530A


1.2 E7630A LTE/LTE-Advanced lab application (LA)
The LA is targeted at overall device design validation, including both functional and RF per-
formance. It includes the receiver and transmitter test functionality of the TA, plus IP data-
based capabilities such as end-to-end IP data throughput and advanced network emulation
such as complex handover scenarios required for VoLTE 1 and battery drain 1 testing.

Additionally, each LA version license adds new capabilities, building on the previous version 2.
Choose the LA version that includes the functionality required for your particular testing
needs.

Feature license Description
