Viavi Solutions Inc. announced that it will be showcasing its Lab to Live test and optimization solutions across Fiber, 5G and Cloud at MWC Barcelona, February 27-March 2, 2023.
“Service providers are facing a myriad of technology and field deployment challenges as they upgrade their networks to the next generation,” said Oleg Khaykin, President and CEO, VIAVI. “They have to manage new architecture complexities and security concerns, while optimizing costs and addressing workforce skill gaps. At MWC Barcelona this year, we will be presenting solutions to help our customers address and manage these multi-faceted challenges.”
At VIAVI Stand #5A18, the company will showcase its industry-leading portfolio of Lab to Live test and optimization solutions. Many of the displayed solutions are enabled by the Network Integrated Test, Real-Time Analytics and Optimization (NITRO) platform and are available today directly and through partners.

- Digital network transformation. VIAVI Cloud RANtoCore solutions enable individual node or end-to-end conformance, performance and interoperability testing – in the lab, through the cloud or as a service. NITRO AI Network Operations, based on the company’s acquisition of CanGo Networks, support communications service providers in harnessing cloud platforms, open control interfaces and automation, by providing cloud-native Asset Discovery, Inventory and Topology, Assurance and Analytics, and Fault Management.
- Evolved network deployment for 5G and beyond. The VIAVI OneAdvisor 800 Wireless equips field technicians and contractors with a compact instrument to install, activate and maintain all elements of the RAN, including RF and fiber. OneAdvisor 800 addresses current deployment scenarios – from millimeter wave networks, to mitigating uplink interference, to network timing and synchronization, and X-haul testing – with automated test processes that help close workforce skill gaps.
- 5G non-terrestrial network (NTN) validation. With 3GPP Release 17 introducing satellite networks, and the rapid growth of commercial constellations, the VIAVI TM500 Network Tester enables effective and scalable validation of NTN communications.
- Private network intelligence. NITRO Private Network Intelligence enables enterprises to rapidly plan, deploy and manage Private 5G and LTE networks while creating an Intelligent Edge. A small, hand-sized XEdge device enables sensor-based ML-powered situational awareness, facilitating digital transformation use cases.
- Energy-saving solutions. The NITRO Location Intelligence xApp and rApp provide a commercial RAN Intelligent Controller (RIC) with foundational subscriber-centric geolocation capability that can be used by other apps to enable autonomous decisions, while the VIAVI TeraVM RIC Test applies artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to train apps, resulting in more energy-efficient network operation.
- Resilient positioning, navigation and timing (PNT). The VIAVI PNT-6200 Series, based on the company’s acquisition of Jackson Labs Technologies, provides maximum resiliency for critical infrastructure dependent on positioning and timing, by supplementing or even replacing GPS signals with connectivity to the broadest range of timing sources on the market.
Sameh Yamany, Chief Technology Officer, VIAVI, commented: “Collaboration is vital to an open, cloud-native network, and vendors who go it alone in a complex environment are unlikely to deliver the positive impact that operators need. We have partnered with the leaders and innovative players in the market, so that operators can gain the benefits of an ecosystem driving them forward.”
