VIAVI Solutions has announced its demonstration lineup for Mobile World Congress (MWC) Barcelona 2026, which takes place March 2-5, 2026. VIAVI will showcase its latest network testing, automation and intelligence solutions, with technology demonstrations across security and quantum-safe communications, mission-critical communications, AIOps, artificial intelligence (AI) data centre, and 6G / AI-RAN.
Commenting on the announcement, chief technology officer, VIAVI, said, “Networks, AI, security, wireless, photonics and sensing have all previously been separate domains, but they are now converging into a single, tightly coupled system. This convergence is redefining how networks and critical infrastructure must be designed, validated and protected in these AI-first environments. At MWC, we reflect this new reality. Testing is shifting from components to validating and optimizing behavior, trust and resilience at scale.”
More than 30 demonstrations across five core solution areas will be featured at the VIAVI booth. These include deep dives into the digital twin technologies required to train AI-RAN algorithms for 6G, AI data centre scale up / scale out validation, assured position, navigation and timing (APNT), non-terrestrial network (NTN) testing and performance verification, and optimization for PQC/QKD. VIAVI’s new ePRTC360+, the only non-Cesium holdover clock to maintain 100 ns accuracy in GNSS-denied environments, will also be on display.
As technology domains converge, partnerships become even more critical. In collaboration with more than 20 partner organizations, VIAVI will highlight additional demonstrations, including Agentic AI-RAN digital twins, ray-tracing-based lab testing of real-world UE behavior and ISAC applications for disaster monitoring. These collaborators include the AI-RAN Alliance, Amphenol, AWS, Calnex, Ericsson, GlobalLogic, Infosys, ITRI, Nokia, NVIDIA, R Systems, Rohde & Schwarz and more.
