Product experts from Valid8 will be on hand at the conference to answer questions about our industry-leading technology and the application of Valid8 Virtual Labs to address a range of critical communications challenges.
Valid8 Virtual Labs provides an all-in-one, cost-effective and ultra-portable network for demonstration, testing and training purposes. This enables a self-contained, end-to-end environment.
In critical communications, this means a digital twin playground for testing P25, MCX IWF, or MCX for conformance, security or load.
Reliable And Secure Testing Solutions for the MCX Community from Valid8
With the continuous advancement of communications, comes the need for more than voice in MCX critical communication situations. Mission Critical Video and Data are growing in acceptance along with Push-to-Talk (PTT). Testing MCX services and interfaces is important. Valid8 delivers a comprehensive range of solutions to meet mission critical testing needs. The Valid8 MCX tester enables operators to test SIP, Diameter, MBMS GTP and RTP/RTCP with Floor Control on the 4G/5G mobile networks, up to 3GPP Rel 17.
