The Alcatel-Lucent Global Product Compliance Laboratory (GPCL) offers a full complement of vibration, shock, and other dynamic tests to Commercial, Military, and International requirements in its Dynamic Test Laboratory. Dynamic Testing is necessary to ensure products will function as designed during transportation, installation, and throughout the product’s life when installed in its intended environment. Products typically evaluated include integrated circuits, circuit packs, shelves, indoor type frames and cabinets, and outdoor type cabinets.
The GPCL Dynamic Test Laboratory equipment capabilities are as follows:
Other capabilities include: fixture design and fabrication, assistance in data analysis, test plan and report generation, scheduling, and support throughout the test program.
