Center Testing International is pleased to announce that it has signed an agreement with MET Laboratories.The agreement allows for a close co-operation supporting telecom manufacturers in China to get local NEBS testing covering Telcordia standards GR-63 & GR 1089. With many telecom manufacturers setting up R&D and manufacturing facilities in China, this would provide NEBS testing closer to these facilities. CTI and MET will work closely in the next several weeks to prepare the testing facilities and commence testing services by end of Q2.

Partnering with MET Laboratories, a leader in electrical product safety for more than 50 years, will expand the scope of CTI’s electrical testing and certification services. Key industry sectors benefiting from this partnership include major telecom and wireless infrastructure equipment manufacturers. This partnership will provide Chinese manufacturers a cost and time effective way to access the North American telecom market.
