Keysight’s 5G UEE solutions validate end-to-end
performance of virtualized radio access and cloud-native core
networks
Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS), a leading technology
company that helps enterprises, service providers and governments
accelerate innovation to connect and secure the world, and Mavenir,
the industry's only end-to-end cloud-native network software
provider for 4G/5G networks, announced that Mavenir has selected
Keysight’s 5G user equipment emulation (UEE) solutions to
accelerate the development of software for 5G radio access network
(RAN) and 5G core (5GC) platforms.
The mobile industry is transitioning towards virtualized RAN
(vRAN) architectures using standard open RAN interfaces in order to
flexibly and cost-effectively address a diverse set of demands
driven by both consumers and vertical industries. Mavenir is part
of an expanding ecosystem of software and wireless equipment
vendors that offers solutions with open standard interfaces in
support of disaggregated network architectures.
“Mavenir and Keysight support an industry in transformation that
needs flexible tools for validating the performance of virtualized
5G radio access and core network functionalities,” said Giampaolo
Tardioli, vice president and general manager of Keysight’s network
access test group. “Keysight’s 5G UEE platforms enable Mavenir to
validate the end-to-end performance of cloud-native RAN and 5GC
software solutions, critical in the delivery of agile solutions
that support more than twenty-five communications service providers
(CSPs) committed to deploying O-RAN compliant networks.”
Mavenir uses Keysight's automated and scalable 5G UEE solutions
to emulate a massive number of subscribers and numerous use
scenarios. These solutions support conformance validation of O-RAN
distributed units (O-DU) and radio units (O-RU), ensuring that 5G
network elements comply to the latest specifications set by both
3GPP and O-RAN standards organizations. Keysight’s UEE solutions
deliver real-world scenarios for protocol and load testing with
integrated sophisticated channel emulation capabilities that allow
users to verify the performance of a RAN deployed in a complex
radio environment.
"Keysight’s cutting-edge tools, developer support and leading 5G
expertise, enable Mavenir to effectively validate our radio access
network solutions,” said Mikael Rylander, general manager of the
Radio Access BU at Mavenir. “Keysight’s solutions improve our
ability to flexibly deliver high quality software to our telco
customer base and better support the OpenRAN ecosystem”.
