Qualcomm pre-certification lab in Hyderabad

Posted on | October 27, 2005 |

Qualcomm plans to open a pre-certification lab for handset manufacturers in Hyderabad by this year-end. It will enable OEM’s to test their handsets in different environments to meet the CDMA providers’ requirements. At present OEMs normally test handsets on their own, which normally takes around six months. In Qualcomm’s pre-certification centre, OEMs would be able to do testing in a week.

The company is also planning to increase its headcount in Bangalore and Hyderabad design centers from the existing 200 to 350 by this year-end.
