Keysight Technologies, Inc. has announced the industry's first cloud-native software for distributed network security and performance testing – CyPerf – which helps organizations characterize user experience and validate the performance limits of hybrid networks, security appliances, and services for confident deployments.

Keysight Technologies, Inc. has introduced PathWave Design 2020, which includes Keysight’s latest electronic design automation software releases dedicated to accelerating design workflows for design engineers in radio frequency (RF) and microwave, 5G, and automotive applications. The
PathWave Design 2020 Software Suite includes new flagship product releases: PathWave Advanced Design System (ADS) 2020, PathWave RFIC Design (GoldenGate) 2020, PathWave System Design (SystemVue) 2020, and PathWave RF Synthesis (Genesys) 2020.

Anritsu introduces software for measuring PIM on CPRI, designed for its BTS Master™ MT8220T and MT822xB portable base station analyzers, enabling passive intermodulation (PIM) measurements at ground level. This eliminates the need for network operator and contractor installation and maintenance teams to climb the tower to check PIM.

Keysight Technologies Inc. has introduced PathWave, the industry's first software platform that integrates design, testing, measurement, and analytics. PathWave enables customers to accelerate product innovation and development from concept to manufacturing and deployment.

EXFO Inc. introduces Universal Virtual Sync, a software-based solution that enables communications service providers (CSPs) to accurately and cost-effectively measure network latency (delay). This real-time visibility into latency behavior allows operators to deliver exceptional service, anytime, anywhere, for applications such as video, VoIP, and interactive services.

NI announces updates to its Wireless Test System (WTS), NI's solution for automated, multi-site testing of wireless devices. The latest version 1.3 of WTS includes support for 8x8 multi-channel configurations and custom 802.11ax test steps with DUT (Device Under Test) control for efficient parallel testing of new devices with IEEE 802.11ax (Draft 1.1)-based connectivity. 

NI announces the release of WLAN Test Toolkit 17.0, compatible with the IEEE 802.11ax Draft 1.1 standard. Combined with NI's second-generation Vector Signal Transceiver (VST), WLAN Test Toolkit 17.0 supports 802.11ax waveform generation and analysis for characterization, validation, and production testing of products such as RF front-end components, wireless modules, and user devices that implement the IEEE 802.11ax Draft 1.1 standard.
