IoTAS and the GCF - Certified Test Solutions

The GCF is an independent certification scheme for mobile phones and wireless devices that are based on 3GPP standards. 

The GCF states:

All device testing associated with GCF certification must be undertaken by an ISO qualified GCF Recognised Test Organisations (RTO). RTOs are GCF members who have demonstrated they possess the experience, qualifications, and systems to assess wireless mobile and IoT devices against GCF’s Certification Criteria.

The role of an Assessment Capable Entities (ACE) is to assist Associate Manufacturer members with the certification of their connected products. This is a mandatory requirement. ACEs are ISO qualified organisations who can determine the range of tests required to certify a device and assess the test results to ensure the product satisfies GCF’s certification criteria.
