The results of the 2023 NTIA (National Telecommunications and Information Administration) 5G Challenge are in! We are excited for the progress that has been made toward achieving the goal of multi-vendor interoperability of Open RAN architecture. As the host lab for the challenge and the first Open Testing and Integration Centre (OTIC), CableLabs, in partnership…
Today, Kyrio, a subsidiary of CableLabs focused on software and testing solutions for the broadband industry, is the first vendor test lab in the Americas, authorized to test OpenSync integrated hardware. As an authorized vendor lab, Kyrio certifies OpenSync implementations on Wi-Fi equipment. “With our full ecosystem of testing capabilities and world-class lab equipment, Kyrio is…
As broadband consumption grows and consumer expectations evolve, the cable industry is becoming increasingly reliant on Wi-Fi technology to support both business and residential customer needs. Along with massive device growth, this urgent demand requires increasingly complex test capabilities to support the needs of customers and communications service providers (CSPs). To meet the evolving demand,…
Video streaming, gaming, video conferencing, virtual reality: these online experiences are shaping consumer expectations for their broadband service both now and in the future. As technology advances, reliable, seamless connectivity has become a standard expectation for residential and business applications. A recent Ernst & Young consumer survey found that more than half of American broadband consumers…

Exciting advancements in Wi-Fi technology are paving the way for applications that will change the way we connect and interact online. Virtual reality, hyper-realistic gaming, AI, and real-time streaming are now part of our digital landscape. Underlying all of those technologies, however, is an equally critical need: seamless connectivity. According to Gartner, a single minute…
Smart offices. Online gaming. Virtual reality. Today’s Wi-Fi and network applications must deliver seamless, quality user experiences that extend beyond speed alone. Traditionally, operators have relied on throughput values to measure network performance. But throughput can’t tell us much about what users actually experience when they interact with an application. Latency is a different category…
In a world where seamless connectivity is no longer a nice-to-have but a necessity, Kyrio is pleased to welcome Chetan Hebbalae as our new Vice President of Software Products and Network Technology. With his wealth of industry experience and forward-thinking approach, Chetan is ideally suited to further Kyrio’s mission of solving key industry challenges and…
Fiber has been an integral part of broadband network architectures for decades. For much of that time, however, it wasn’t feasible to use fiber for the “last mile” connection to the premises. As technology has continued to evolve, we’ve seen exciting advancements in Passive Optical Networks (PON) that have brought fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) within reach. Current…
The future of the telecommunications industry hinges on interoperability. As technology becomes more infused into our daily lives, the necessity of network standardization, supplier-agnostic applications, and plug-and-play performance can’t be overstated. This year, CableLabs was again selected as the host lab for the Challenge in partnership with Kyrio. As the first O-RAN Alliance Open Testing…
