(NASDAQ: AMPG, AMPGR, AMPGZ) (the “Company” or “AmpliTech”), a designer, developer, and manufacturer of advanced radio frequency (RF) microwave components, 5G communication systems, and quantum computing low-noise amplifiers (LNAs), today announced that its O-RAN CAT B 64T64R Massive MIMO radio unit was featured in live demonstrations at VIAVI Solutions’ VALOR Lab during a recent facility tour for AI-RAN Alliance members and attendees. The tour, held in conjunction with the AI-RAN Alliance Annual Meeting, brought approximately 120 attendees through VIAVI’s Automated Lab-as-a-Service for Open RAN (VALOR™) facility in Chandler, Arizona. VALOR is a purpose-built, AI-enabled testing environment combining a 600 plus automated test case library, a 25-by-35-foot RF anechoic chamber, with GPU infrastructure from a prominent AI player in the industry, and on-site multi-vendor O-RAN reference configurations. Funded in part by the NTIA’s Public Wireless Supply Chain Innovation Fund, VALOR is recognized as the industry’s first AI-RAN Alliance-endorsed lab. AmpliTech’s 64T64R radio was used in live demonstrations during the tour, giving attendees a firsthand look at the radio’s performance within a multi-vendor O-RAN reference environment, the kind of real-world validation that operators and integrators increasingly require before committing to large-scale deployment. Independent Validation in a Multi-Vendor Environment VALOR’s role in the Open RAN ecosystem is to provide rigorous, independent validation of AI-powered RAN technology before it reaches live commercial networks. Since opening in 2024, the lab has executed more than 2,100 test runs across 377 test cases and has maintained an average occupancy rate of 75%, reflecting strong demand from across the industry for the kind of testing infrastructure most companies cannot replicate in-house. AmpliTech’s inclusion in VALOR’s demonstration environment, alongside other leading O-RAN vendors, reflects the radio’s continued validation across an expanding set of independent testing venues, including the Open6G OTIC at Northeastern University and the O-RAN ALLIANCE Global PlugFest Spring 2026, in which AmpliTech’s 64T64R was the only radio of its configuration to participate. Executive Commentary “Every independent evaluation adds another layer of credibility to our technology. It is one of the strongest indicators of technology leadership,” says said Fawad Maqbool, Founder, Chairman, President, and CEO of AmpliTech Group. “VALOR is exactly the kind of environment where that matters, a rigorous, multi-vendor, AI-enabled testing infrastructure that the industry is using to separate what works from what is still theoretical. We’re glad to be part of it.” About VIAVI Solutions’ VALOR Lab VIAVI’s Automated Lab-as-a-Service for Open RAN (VALOR™) is a purpose-built, AI-enabled testing facility located in Chandler, Arizona, offering a comprehensive automated test case library, large-scale RF anechoic chamber testing, with a prominent industry player GPU’s infrastructure, and multi-vendor O-RAN reference configurations.
