Keysight, ZTE collaborate on 5G commercial predeployment

Feb. 21, 2017

Santa Rosa, CA. Keysight Technologies has announced that it is collaborating with ZTE to assist in the test and measurement of critical 5G key technologies, including mmWave communications, massive MIMO, and BTS (base transceiver station) beam-forming prototypes. Keysight will help ZTE accelerate 5G product time to market by providing industry-leading products and solutions—for example, UXA mmWave signal analyzers, AXIe modular ultrabroad-bandwidth signal generation and analysis systems, and system-level prototype solutions.

ZTE is a comprehensive telecommunication solution provider who is a participant and contributor of 5G communications. ZTE is one of the first group of companies that completed the China 5G Experimental Trials in phase I, and accredited by IMT2020(5G) Promotion Group with the official certificate of 5G technologies experiments. ZTE’s mmWave 5G BTS prototype is now under test in the China 5G Experimental Trials phase II.

“We are very glad to cooperate with ZTE, an industry leader in communication industry, on 5G commercial pre-deployment project,” said Scott Bryden, vice president of Keysight’s Internet Infrastructure Network Access Solution Group. “Keysight continues to drive innovative industry solutions to next-generation mobile communications design and test challenges through these close collaborations with our customers and partners.”

“5G is an open ecosystem,” said Gang BAI, ZTE 5G product general manager. “ZTE is keen to collaborate with industry partners in the commercialization process of 5G for a better tomorrow.”
