5G Service Assurance

At MWC 2019, Steve Douglas, discusses service assurance for 5G network slicing, monetization and the business case for 5G, and the use of automation in current networks to cut costs, as well as active emulation for security and the use of emulated digital twins for network testing and planning. An RCR Wireless News interview.

NFV Service Assurance In a Virtual World—TIA NOW

Performance is critical for virtual networks. But how will NFV maintain service levels that propel 5G networks efficiently? Dave Stehlin, General Manager of the Lifecycle Assurance Business Unit at Spirent Communications, shares his insights with TIA NOW.

5G a new dawn for connected devices

Global provider of testing, assurance, analytics, and security solutions, Spirent and National Instruments the leaders in automated test and measurement systems, describe how their partnership is a breakthrough approach to 5G device performance testing.

Safely Accelerating to 5G

Last year at Mobile World Congress Americas, the industry was talking about getting to 5G by 2020. At MWCA18, the message was clear: 5G is coming much faster! But are key stakeholders ready for what comes next? Spirent has spent the past year working closely with operators, device makers and network equipment manufacturers to shore up next-gen network strategies. Spirent’s Stephen Douglas shares more insight from MWCA18 in Los Angeles.

Assuring the Evolution to 5G

Most providers plan to take an evolutionary approach to 5G, starting with 4G evolved pack core (EPC) control / user plane separation (CUPS), then migrating to 5G non-standalone (NSA) and finally deploying full native 5G. To learn more about what it takes to assure a successful journey from 4G to native 5G, download or request a printed copy of our poster, Assuring the Evolution to 5G.
