"This cooperation with Ericsson, as one of the largest mobile technology providers in the world, is an important further development of our previous wireless / IoT services for our company. This is especially true with regard to the mobile telecommunications industry and all related industries. This includes, for example, companies in the field of Connected Vehicles, Industry 4.0, and those dealing with the topic of Smart City. With reference to the new telecommunications standard 5G and the increasing spread of this technology in all areas of life and industries, this cooperation perfectly complements our wireless /IoT offering," says Sven Sellmann, Regional Sales Manager Europe, Business Stream Products at TÜV Rheinland.

Leandro Montesdeoca-Henriquez, Head of Device and Network Testing, Ericsson: “We are pleased about the good cooperation with the certification experts from TüV Rheinland to bring together the best of two worlds. The Ericsson Device Hub is a one-stop shop for mobile broadband communication-based devices across the ecosystem. The ecosystem goes far beyond smartphones. It also includes devices for mission critical and for industry 4.00, as Ericsson will show at Hannover Messe next week.”
