VIAV Solution Boosts Fiber Fault Detection Capabilities: Stock to Gain?
Viavi Solutions, Inc. VIAV recently announced that it is collaborating with 3-GIS, a prominent provider of fiber network design and management software, to enhance enterprises' fiber fault detection capabilities. Fiber networks now serve as the backbone of data communications. As the industry moves toward adopting advanced AI and cloud-native applications, the role of high-quality fiber connections has become paramount. Any minor issues can significantly impact service quality, affecting the end-user experience. However, maintaining the optimum functionality of the fiber infrastructure is an operational challenge. The use of manual processes makes it even more complex and time consuming. The Viavi and 3-GIS collaboration aims to address these issues. By combining the VIAVI ONMSi Remote Fiber Test System with 3-GIS' robust geospatial capabilities, Viavi aims to support technicians in quickly detecting and resolving any network issues across the infrastructure. The solution leverages the Geographic Information System investments of service providers, which shows their network infrastructure. Viavi and 3-GIS have deployed the solution at Windstream Wholesale's Intelligent Converged Optical Network. The solution gives greater visibility across the network layout, ensuring instant identification of any impairment. The system automates the error-prone manual processes, enhances network maintenance and minimizes downtime. Rapid deployment of fiber for transport networks, data centers, enterprises and home broadband to support AI workloads, high-performance computing and other advanced technologies is mounting pressure on service providers to deliver consistent and high-quality service. Even minor degradation impacting end-user experience can hinder the service provider's revenues. This is driving demand for intelligent, automated systems across the telecommunications industry. By integrating 3-GIS' geospatial intelligence with its diagnostic tools, Viavi intends to capitalize on the emerging market trend. This bodes well for long-term comprehensive product portfolio offers end-to-end network visibility and analytics, helping to build, test, certify, maintain and optimize complex physical and virtual networks. The company's strategy of expansion into various markets such as wireless & fiber, 3D sensing products, optical transport, ethernet, broadband access, video test and storage network testing is likely to bring long-term benefits. It is set to acquire the high-speed ethernet and network security business of Spirent Communications from Keysight Technologies. The buyout will significantly boost Viavi's commercial prospects in the fast-growing security, ethernet, data center, AI and digital infrastructure end markets. Shares of Viavi have gained 21.8% over the past year compared with the industry's growth of 35.4%.

VIAVI and 3-GIS Partnership Enables Faster, More Accurate Fiber Fault Location at Windstream Wholesale
CHANDLER, Ariz., May 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- VIAVI Solutions Inc. (VIAVI) (NASDAQ: VIAV) and 3-GIS, a market-leading fiber network design and management software provider, today announced a partnership to empower businesses with faster, more accurate fiber fault location capabilities, while also leveraging customers' existing Geographic Information System (GIS) investments. The combined solution, currently deployed at Windstream Wholesale, automates the current manual processes, offering significant advantages in improving network maintenance, minimizing downtime, increasing revenue and reducing cost. VIAVI, 3-GIS and Windstream will discuss this joint solution and its customer benefits in a webinar hosted by the Fiber Broadband Association on June 12, 2025. Fiber deployment is on the rise across transport networks, data centers, enterprises and home broadband. Demand is surging to support AI/ML, high-performance computing and other advanced technologies. Building out fiber networks is costly and time-consuming, and even slight degradations can have a significant effect on the end user's quality of experience, making fault identification and resolution critical to the network operator's financial performance. VIAVI and 3-GIS have integrated the VIAVI ONMSi Remote Fiber Test System (RFTS) with 3-GIS's robust geospatial capabilities, speeding up the network technician's work to identify and resolve issues during network operations and maintenance. The VIAVI and 3-GIS integrated solution has been successfully implemented at Windstream Wholesale, as part of Windstream Wholesale's Intelligent Converged Optical Network (ICON). Designed for rapid deployment on any existing fiber, the solution provides instant detection of full- or partial-cut impairments, allowing companies such as Windstream Wholesale to take action before their dark fiber customers identify a fiber issue. Significant reductions in repair times are also achieved by dispatching the right technician and test equipment the first time. Further, the integration allows Windstream Wholesale to correlate alarms directly to a specific client's service, enabling them to proactively notify the customer that action is already being taken before the customer calls in faults. This combination of ONMSi with 3-GIS streamlines maintenance and repair operations by providing a single source of information to a technician, eliminating any conflicting data from different sources and speeding fault resolution. "Fiber network technicians face immense pressure to deploy and maintain high-speed networks efficiently while minimizing downtime. Identifying and resolving faults quickly is critical to ensuring reliable service for end customers," said Russell Taws, Director, Fiber and Access Solutions, VIAVI. "We are excited to partner with a fellow industry leader in 3-GIS to deliver advanced fault identification and location, empowering technicians with precise, real-time insights to resolve issues faster, reduce unnecessary troubleshooting and ultimately deliver a seamless connectivity experience." "This partnership represents a powerful fusion of VIAVI's diagnostic precision and 3-GIS's geospatial intelligence," said Dustin Sutton, Chief Marketing Officer, 3-GIS. "For our customers, the result is transformative: faster, automated fault resolution that directly translates into minimized downtime, optimized field operations and stronger SLA performance. We're enabling service providers to not only maintain their networks more efficiently but also to solidify their reputation for reliability and maximize the strategic value of their 3-GIS platform." "This integration between VIAVI and 3-GIS systems automates what was a completely manual process," said Glen Grochowski, Director, Windstream Wholesale Engineering "It has allowed us to automate fiber fault detection, streamline fault response, and speed technician dispatch, reducing our operational costs and service downtime." Through this collaboration, service providers can maximize their current GIS investments while enhancing the speed and accuracy of fault location, ultimately improving network operations and customer satisfaction.
