Testbed-as-a-Service
This comprehensive service equips companies with essential resources including hardware, software, and a dedicated 5G network configured specifically for experimentation, trials, and research. By operating within FCTLab's controlled environment, users can test their applications, devices, or services without being bound by predefined telco configurations. This eliminates the need for companies to invest in establishing their own testbed infrastructure, allowing them to seamlessly leverage FCTLab's resources.
What we offer:
Assist companies in the deployment and verification of the local 5G system.
Provide 5G testbed for the industry to test their applications or use cases.
Assist users to optimize use case application performance from network side through the analysis of the traffic and configuring the network.
5G Testbeds and Dedicated 50MHz R&D Bandwidth
FCTLab operates multiple 5G testbeds at the SIT Punggol Digital District campus, supporting a range of network architectures including traditional, Open RAN, and software-defined implementations. These diverse platforms provide a flexible and secure environment for customising, testing, and validating advanced 5G solutions. These testbeds are operating at n78 band (3400MHz-3450MHz). Refer to the coverage map below. Since the network is independent and dedicated, many network parameters can be adjusted depending on the use case.

5G Coverage Areas @ SIT Punggol
The 5G Standalone (SA) testbeds at the SIT Punggol Digital District (PDD) campus operate on the n78 band and provide dedicated indoor coverage across Level 3 of E2 building. Partners and researchers can make use of the indoor playground and project rooms, a controlled and restricted environment for safe testing and experimentation of 5G-enabled products and services. Please refer to the map below for more information.
