. The announcement comes as the company's stock performance has surged 464% over the past year, with shares trading at $52.42 and a market capitalization reaching $12.84 billion1

1

. The launch signals VIAVI's strategic push into AI-powered tools that address mounting pressure on engineering teams to deliver faster results with greater precision.

Three AI Experts Target Field and Lab Environments

The initial AI Experts product line comprises three distinct offerings: OneAdvisor 800 Wireless AI Expert, TM500 AI Expert, and TeraVM AI Expert2

Automated Workflows Address Engineering Pressure

Ian Langley, Senior Vice President of VIAVI's Wireless, Security and Applications Business Unit, explained the rationale behind the launch: "At every stage of network validation, engineers are being asked to deliver more, faster and with greater precision. AI Experts put proven, product-specific intelligence directly into their workflows on the instrument in the field and inside the lab, helping shorten validation times and deliver outcomes faster"1

. The tools enable a reduction in manual effort during time-consuming tasks and help engineering teams meet increasingly aggressive development timelines2

2

. By providing answers specific to each situation directly on the instrument, the wireless testing solutions enable engineers to validate faster and with greater accuracy2

Incremental Adoption Strategy and Future Expansion

All three AI Experts are currently available, with VIAVI adopting an incremental rollout approach that allows teams to adopt and expand AI capabilities gradually2

2

. The company has signaled plans to introduce additional AI Experts for other products in its portfolio over time, suggesting a broader transformation of its test and measurement equipment lineup1

1

. This expansion strategy positions VIAVI to capture growing demand for automated diagnostics and intelligent testing solutions as 5G networks mature and next-generation wireless technologies emerge. The company, which provides test and measurement equipment and optical technologies for data centers, communication networks and various industrial applications, has posted revenue growth of 31% in the last twelve months1
