Date:   Sunday , September 05, 2010

Now, the IT services major Wipro Technologies has another achievement to its credit. The IT bellwether has set up Bluetooth qualification test facility, the first of its kind in India. The recognition by the Bluetooth Trade Association makes Wipro competent to perform Bluetooth qualification conformance or compliance tests. “We will test products submitted by members of Bluetooth special interest group at our test lab in the Electronics City campus, Bangalore,” says Wipro Vice-President C.P. Gangadharaiah.

To conduct the Bluetooth Protocol Conformance Testing, Wipro has launched a test lab on the premises of its testing facilities at the Wipro Campus in Electronic City, Bangalore, where it will independently test submitted products from Bluetooth SIG members around the world. Trained engineers from Wipro will test submitted products for conformance to Bluetooth Qualification tests’, using the well-defined and focused testing procedures created by the SIG.

In 2009 alone, more than 1,000 new Bluetooth enabled product designs were evolved and over 3,000 Bluetooth enabled products were tested and certified.

In the light of such burgeoning market opportunities, the new facility promises to bring great opportunities to Wipro.
