06/01/2021

Anritsu Corporation is pleased to announce availability of a new solution for evaluating video quality of 5G devices. This lab-based solution was developed in partnership with Spirent Communications plc and leverages the strengths of Anritsu’s SmartStudio NR Network Simulator and Spirent’s Umetrix Video software, providing the world’s first integrated 5G video quality system.
