Learn about timing and synchronization considerations for 5G Open RAN Networks to deliver the full range of enhanced capabilities available with 5G New Radio.

As operators move to Open RAN networks and the promise of 5G New Radio, there is still a fundamental need for the network to deliver highly accurate synchronization remains.

Spirent conducted a study on mobile video streaming across different carriers, devices and services in two US cities. The results showed that having the latest smartphone, the most popular streaming service and excellent network coverage doesn't always equate to high quality. This infographic reveals some of what we found, a look at what motivates consumers to look elsewhere, and how Spirent can help you to keep your customers happy.

Study on Buffering & Mobile Video Streaming

Mobile Video Streaming: Buffering…

Adoption of Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) and Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN) is on an upward spiral. Both are attractive alternatives to provisioned Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) architectures, providing improved performance and application policy enforcement, better network visibility, and lower costs. A closer look reveals additional advantages of using each—and the synergies of combining SASE & SD-WAN.


SD-WAN is perfect for those needing high performance WAN connectivity and security services.

The Spirent 2020 5G Report

Every day, operators make a promise to deliver high quality mobile services to their customers. 5G raises expectations of consumers—and the bar for service providers. 5G business cases call for dense wireless coverage for millions of connections and low latency. The only way to assure that millions of small cells and backhaul links will meet service level agreements (SLAs) at turn-up and during live operation afterwards is to perform continuous active testing of the links via an automated approach. Traditional manual testing methods are simply impractical for current and future needs.



Thought leadership share challenges faced by a tier-1 service providers and how to deliver speed of deployment and operational cost savings.

Cloud Services whether SaaS, IaaS, CaaS, VDI, or PaaS are adding incredible diversity in both the number of providers and services offered. Most of this ecosystem is running on a handful of virtual platforms—or Hypervisors—from vendors such as VMware, Amazon, and Microsoft, or from an open source platform like KVM. Compared to traditional server-client applications running over traditional IP networking products, virtualization platforms are comparatively new. They are also considerably less tested in terms of network application performance as they run over standard x86 based server hardware, opposed to purpose built proprietary hardware from networking equipment vendors.



Spirent discusses why testing hypervisor performance for Cloud and NFV use cases is critical, especially in a live cloud and virtual environment.

Umetrix Voice 

As subscriber expectations for unbounded mobility, seamless availability, no-wait response, and unlimited options for applications and content rise – a legacy network limits the ability of a service provider to react quickly to these market needs with new service offering.  Service Providers need standardized appliances that can serve any required network function (NF) and these appliances should be able to run multiple instances of the network functions in virtual machines (VMs).



Learn more about the concept of network functions virtualization (NFV) and software-defined networking (SDN).
