Spirent Communications announced its extensive work with Rakuten Mobile in support of the operator's current LTE services, planned 5G Non-Standalone and Standalone rollout in Japan for its world-first fully virtualized cloud native mobile network.

Rakuten Mobile required groundbreaking testing capabilities to assure the performance of new services and selected Spirent Landslide for core network testing.

With LTE services now live and deployment of its 5G NSA network planned for later in the year, Spirent will work with Rakuten Mobile to ensure a solid customer experience.

"We are excited to collaborate with Spirent for core network testing," said Tareq Amin, representative director, executive vice president and CTO of Rakuten Mobile.

As new services are tested for deployment to subscribers, Rakuten Mobile is also using the Spirent iTest network automation and verification solution for regression testing to speed validation timeframes, allowing Rakuten Mobile's engineering teams to remain focused on new service creation for subscribers.
