Guide to 5G: Distributed Antenna Systems (5G DAS)
Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) are one of the most popular in-building solutions. But what will be 5G's impact on DAS? Our guide to 5G DAS: Learn more about DAS, how it works, its benefits and challenges, and its role in 5G deployment.
The Shared Lab Challenge
The constantly evolving communication networks require development of new Ethernet network devices, being either traditional hardware implementations or virtual, software based implementations – Virtual Network Functions (VNF). In both cases the devices need to be tested during development to troubleshoot and validate the functioning of the new devices.
Product Re-Design in Two Weeks: A Customer Success Story

Setting the Bar for Layer 1 Switches: Why ColdFusion?
Lepton’s ColdFusion Layer 1 test automation switch enables the automation of 100% of lab infrastructure. With ColdFusion, network topology changes can be performed with the click of a button, or by integrating QA test scripts with ColdFusion APIs.
5G Basics: Non-Standalone vs Standalone (NSA vs SA)
5G is the fifth generation of mobile communication technology; revolutionary with an achievable downlink speed of 1000Mbps under ideal conditions. The deployment of 5G is consequential, but complicated with one contributing factor to the complexity being the two difference 5G network modes.
5G Fronthaul Network Testing Considerations
5G networks offer lower latency, greater flexibility, and increased bandwidth compared to 4G technology. To deliver these improvements, 5G fronthaul networks use different hardware and networking protocols to those found in previous generation networks.
