To address the increasing demand for 5G and O-RAN validation, Capgemini and VIAVI have collaborated on optimizing network integration in 5G open environments. VIAVI’s test tools address the entire network lifecycle, providing functional, system integration and performance testing of gNBs, core networks, core network components, and O-RAN subsystems, delivering true end-user QoE visibility.

VIAVI Solutions and Capgemini, working together through Capgemini Engineering in Portugal, can now deliver an industry-leading 5G and O-RAN lab test capability, powered by VIAVI’s O-RAN lab as a service (LaaS). In this TechXchange Talks, we speak to Ian Langley at VIAVI Solutions and Shamik Mishra at Capgemini Engineering about the ramifications.
