VIAVI Solutions (NASDAQ: VIAV) has expanded its VALOR™ (VIAVI Automated Lab-as-a-Service for Open RAN) testing facility in Chandler, Arizona. The expansion includes an RF-shielded anechoic chamber and two additional customer labs, funded by the NTIA Public Wireless Supply Chain Innovation Fund.

The new RF Chamber represents the industry's first test-as-a-service offering for Massive MIMO and beamforming over-the-air (OTA) validation, supporting system-level testing for up to 16 parallel spatial layers. The facility now offers over 500 test cases compliant with O-RAN and 3GPP specifications.

As the first AI-RAN Alliance-endorsed lab, VALOR serves as a hub for AI-powered telecommunications innovation. The lab is also authorized by the Telecom Infra Project (TIP) for system performance certification and collaborates with AT&T and Verizon to accelerate Open RAN testing.

Viavi Solutions (NASDAQ: VIAV) has announced enhanced capabilities for its ONE LabPro ONE-1600, the world's first electrical 212G/lane, 1.6Tb/s testing solution. The platform, which leverages Broadcom's SerDes and DSP technology, provides advanced testing for physical layer silicon and supports high-bandwidth network switching devices for AI infrastructure.

The ONE-1600, available in 2-port and 4-port rack mount configurations, received honors from 2025 Lightwave+BTR Innovation Reviews. The platform can scale to 102Tb/s of test bandwidth, supporting up to 64 x 1.6Tb/s test ports or 128 x 800Gb/s test ports, managed by a single controller.

First launched in September 2024, the ONE-1600 has demonstrated successful interoperability with multiple 1.6Tb/s module vendors, showing faster adoption rates compared to previous data rate generations. The system features a web-based interface and Python-based automation framework for advanced traffic generation and analysis.

Inertial Labs, a VIAVI Solutions company (NASDAQ: VIAV), has introduced the M-AJ-QUATRO anti-jamming antenna system, featuring advanced Controlled Reception Pattern Antenna (CRPA) technology. The system ensures reliable navigation in GPS/GNSS-challenged environments across military and commercial aviation sectors.

Key features include:

• Operation across L1, L2, and L5 GNSS bands
• 34dB+ interference suppression (export-free) and 45dB+ (export-controlled)
• Multi-constellation support (GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, BEIDOU, QZSS)
• Dual FPGA-based encryption and anti-spoofing technology
• Compliance with MIL-STD-810G and MIL-STD-461F standards

The launch aligns with accelerated FAA and Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division efforts to approve CRPA technology for enhanced aviation safety and GPS interference mitigation.

The new module offers comprehensive testing capabilities for networks up to 800G, featuring built-in guidance and automatic configuration. It supports both traditional AOC/DAC cable tests and new AEC/ACC tests in a single unit, along with QSFP and OSFP form factors. The solution is designed with superior battery life and heat dissipation, making it ideal for field technicians working in metro/core, data center interconnect, and business services environments.

This addition complements VIAVI's existing OneAdvisor 800 platform, introduced in 2020, which supports transport, wireless/RF, and fiber optic testing environments. The platform can be integrated with the INX 760 Probe Microscope and FiberComplete PRO for comprehensive network testing capabilities.

VIAVI Solutions (NASDAQ: VIAV) has announced its participation in NASA's SPHEREx mission, which launched on March 11, 2025. The mission represents the first all-sky spectral survey in the near-infrared range, designed to map hundreds of millions of galaxies and over 100 million stars.

VIAVI's contribution includes advanced optical components for the SPHEREx spectrometer, specifically Linear Variable Filters that split light wavelengths from 0.75-5.0µm, and a dichroic beamsplitter that reflects 0.75-2.6µm while transmitting 2.6-5.0µm. These components are important for capturing and analyzing infrared signals to develop a comprehensive spectral map.

This project builds upon VIAVI's previous space mission contributions, including technology for the LEISA instrument on New Horizons, the OVIRS instrument for OSIRIS-REx, and the MISE instrument on Europa Clipper.

VIAVI Solutions Inc. (NASDAQ: VIAV) has unveiled the CX200 infrastructure field tester, a new handheld instrument designed for testing, maintaining, and troubleshooting mission-critical radio networks. The device will be showcased at IWCE 2025 (March 19-20).
