Spirent and Telescent forge new path in lab automation

Spirent partners with Telescent to innovate lab automation solutions, enhancing AI/ML connectivity and resource optimisation.

Spirent Communications plc, renowned for its test and assurance solutions, has embarked on a strategic partnership with Telescent. Known for manufacturing Optical Circuit Switches (OCS) and automated fibre patch-panels for network operators, Telescent's collaboration with Spirent promises to refine lab automation solutions significantly.

This global alliance will integrate Telescent's advanced optical circuit switch and smart patch panel offerings with Spirent's Velocity test lab automation suite. The resulting combination is aimed at enhancing AI and machine learning resource connectivity while automating test infrastructure more efficiently.

The synergy of Spirent's automation expertise and Telescent's cutting-edge fibre management systems offers a refined approach to mitigating connectivity issues inherent in AI and ML workloads.

Telescent's robotic systems, which provide remote fibre provisioning, entirely eliminate manual patch panel handling, thus reducing potential human error.

Anil Kollipara, VP of Product Management at Spirent, highlighted the partnership as a testament to Spirent's pursuit of innovative automated test solutions. The convergence of Telescent's optical technology with Spirent's Velocity portfolio promises a transformative impact on lab automation and AI/ML resource strategies.

Further extending its market impact, Spirent will serve as the exclusive worldwide value-added reseller for Telescent's solutions, enhancing their reach in lab automation. Integrated with Velocity, these innovations cater to enterprise labs, AI centres, and manufacturer validation facilities aiming for efficiency through automation.

"Partnering with Spirent represents a significant milestone in expanding the reach of our automated fiber management solutions," said Anthony Kewitsch, CEO of Telescent. "Spirent's extensive global presence and deep industry relationships will accelerate adoption of our technology across markets worldwide. Together, we're enabling the next generation of network automation and flexibility."
