TeraVM Core Emulator

Product Overview

The TM500 Family of products are used for functional, system integration, capacity and stress testing in the lab and emulate up 1000s of mobile devices, across multiple cells to set-up and test 4G and 5G Base Stations. The VIAVI TeraVM Core Emulator adds to the capabilities of industry-standard TM500 test mobile to provide a full wrap-around test of a 5G gNB for both non-standalone (NSA) and standalone (SA) modes. One of the biggest challenges facing NEMs and mobile operators as they launch 5G is developing products against constantly changing and maturing 3GPP specs. TeraVM Core Emulator can remove the pain of Core Network dependencies by giving RAN engineers a controllable and repeatable test environment that helps implement 3GPP standards rapidly and simplify the development lifecycle of 5G gNBs and the introduction of 5G services to the market. The TM500 has been the de facto industry standard for base station testing with its use with virtually all Network Equipment Manufacturers worldwide and now boasts capability up to, 4G, 5G including O-RAN. TM500 delivers real voice, data, realistic mobility models and 4G/5G core emulation, providing the most comprehensive lab validation portfolio. The TM500 Family offers the right test tools, expertise, and support across the entire development lifecycle.

Highlights: Alignment and compatibility with gNB 3GPP specifications, making it easier to identify and pinpoint issues, reducing time-to-market via agile releases (bi-weekly) with common configuration and remote software upgrades. Controllable: a single shared Core Network may not be set up in line with a particular set of RAN test requirements, and the TeraVM Core Emulator can be configured to match specific RAN test needs. Repeatable: engineers managing real licenses need to make constant changes and updates to keep them up to date. But when debugging a gNB problem or trying to optimize performance, a constant/repeatable environment is required.
