## Stop Paying the 20% Re-Test Tax

For decades, RF professionals accepted a harsh reality: 1 in 5 walk and drive tests requires a re-test due to equipment failure, data corruption, or unreliable performance. Each re-walk costs $5K-$15K, and each re-drive costs $20K-$50K in wasted labor, travel, and venue access fees. CERNO's 99% reliability eliminates this industry-accepted tax on your time and budget.

## Built for Reliability, Simplicity, and Performance

Three core advantages that eliminate the re-test tax and accelerate your testing workflows and time-to-deliverables

### 99% Reliability. Zero Re-Tests.

Engineered for 99% reliability, CERNO prevents data loss from thermal throttling, power failure, or corruption. Eliminate costly re-tests and ensure your data is always secure.

- 99% reliability vs 80% industry standard
- Eliminate $5K-$50K re-testing costs per incident
- True 5G testing with no heat-induced throttling or fallback to 4G

### Unmatched Speed and Efficiency

Start testing in 10 minutes, not hours. Our intuitive drag-and-drop script builder and automated channel scanning eliminate complex setup. If you can use a smartphone, you can use CERNO.

- Configure and start testing in 10 minutes vs hours with legacy tools
- Never lose more than 3 seconds of measurement data, even if you run out of power mid-test
- Automated channel scanning eliminates programming errors

### Test More, Faster

Test up to 3x more networks at once than legacy tools. CERNO handles 24 networks on a walk test and 72 on a drive test, completing a week's work in a single day.

- From boot-up to test completion of up to 24 networks to walk test reports in a day
- From boot-up to test completion of up to 72 networks to comprehensive drive test maps & queries in a day
- Comprehensive, industry-standard QMDL log files

## One Device for Every Testing Scenario

One versatile device for every testing scenario - reducing CAPEX and OPEX by eliminating multiple single-purpose tools. Use the same unit in a backpack for walk testing or mounted in a vehicle for drive testing. One device. Every scenario.

#### Walk Testing

Lightweight backpack rig (12.1kg / 25lb for a 24 UE configuration) with even weight distribution reduces physical strain and risk of injury.

#### Drive Testing

Automatically convert to drive testing mode by connecting the GPS Puck. Roof-mounted setup eliminates vehicle-induced attenuation for true, accurate data.

#### Auto Identify Bands & Channels

Auto scan before testing to accurately identify all deployed bands & channels - ensuring that tests are complete and eliminating errors.

#### Fast Start Feature

Pre-configure tests in the office. On-site, the user simply powers on the device to start testing automatically.

#### Test Every Band on a Single Walk/Drive

Scalability that allows you to test every operator-technology-band combination on a single pass for complete insight into service quality, and elimination of the need for scanners.

#### Simultaneous Testing of Voice & Data With Each UE

Increase productivity by running separate voice call and data throughput test scripts on each of the inbuilt UEs at the same time.
