The latest from Valid8

In emergencies, it is critical that first responders have reliable technology to ensure seamless, efficient communication. The compliance assessment program (CAP) was created to ensure that first responders are able to react and coordinate with each other no matter what type of equipment make or model they are using to communicate. Valid8 delivers efficient, proven, cost-effective ISSI & CSSI testing in support of the P25 CAP.

The new collaboration allows customers of the UNH-IOL to use the Valid8 4G Network Emulator, which enables the lab to run IPv6 testing over 4G, to perform their IPv6 testing. The addition of Valid8’s solution expands the types of devices customers can test at the UNH-IOL for the IPv6 testing programs.

Valid8 is proud to continue its support of Freely in Hope, a faith-based nonprofit organization focused on programs that equip survivors to lead in ending sexual violence in Kenya, Zambia and South Africa.

Valid8 will be closed on New Years day January 1. We will resume normal hours on January 2. For tech support please email support@valid8.com. Check out the December newsletter featuring articles on our eNodeB Tester and 5G Emulator.

eNodeB's are a critical component of mobile network architecture. The eNodeB element on the base station is the point of connection between the network and mobile devices (UEs). Valid8's single solution for base station testing makes it easier than ever to make sure your network is prepared.

Mission critical push to talk (MCPTT) represents those capabilities that align with the requirements of public safety organizations as part of their rapid-response programs, specifically voice communication. Valid8 has delivered the first testing capability that combines LTE MCPTT and P25 ISSI load and conformance suites in a single solution.

Fixed lines are not going away, but, for many, the testing tools are. Valid8 can test POTS, SIP and T1 with a clear path to new technologies such as 5G

With CBRS becoming an available spectrum, new technologies will need to be tested for performance, conformance and security in preparation for required certifications

We are pleased to announce the roll-out of our updated website, Valid8.com.
