Pico5G Lite
Compact single-cell 4G and 5G SA test network with NTN support, for IoT and device validation.
- LTE + 5G SA
- 3GPP Rel 19
- NTN support
- 200 Mbps DL
- Up to 500 UEs
Overview
The Pico5G Lite is a compact, portable 4G and 5G test platform that runs a 3GPP Release 19 eNB/gNB with EPC/5GC in one box. It runs one cell at a time on LTE, LTE-M, NB-IoT or 5G SA, and compared with the IoT model it adds 5G SA, (e)RedCap, satellite NTN, VoNR and VoWiFi. It has no built-in screen and is run from an external monitor or remotely.
Built for
- IoT device connectivity validation
- Power and battery profiling
- 5G SA and RedCap device tests
- Satellite NTN device testing
Key features
4G and 5G SA
Supports LTE, LTE-M, NB-IoT, 5G SA and 5G (e)RedCap in a single-cell setup.
NTN testing
Supports NR-NTN and NB-IoT-NTN in regenerative and transparent modes, with GEO, MEO and LEO channel simulation.
Voice services
Embedded IMS and N3IWF allow VoLTE, VoNR, VoWiFi, SMS and emergency call tests.
Channel simulation
Simulates DL channel models per 3GPP 36.101 and 38.141.
Pico5G Copilot
Can run Nutaq's on-box AI test assistant under the Copilot license tier.
Automation interfaces
Tests can be driven from the GUI, CLI, REST/WebSocket API or MCP, so lab runs can move into CI.
