TestCenter B3 800G delivers deterministic, real-world validation for hyperscale data centers, AI clusters, and high-performance Ethernet fabrics, giving engineering, validation, and operations teams a confident path to design, deploy, and scale at 800G.
As AI workloads drive unprecedented east-west traffic and bandwidth demand, 800G Ethernet introduces new challenges in signal integrity, FEC, latency, and fabric resiliency. The B3 makes UEC 1.0 support a core part of VIAVI's TestCenter offering, with Transport Layer validation available today and a rapidly expanding UEC feature set built for quickly evolving demands.
By emulating real-world traffic and failure conditions, B3 exposes issues traditional testing often misses, long before mission-critical networks go into production.

Award Winning Design
Recognized in the 2025 Lightwave Innovation Reviews, the TestCenter B3 800G 8-Port Appliances were built from the ground up for high-capacity traffic generation and analysis across 100G to 800G Ethernet architectures. The solution validates performance, interoperability, and reliability for AI-scale data center deployments.
Use Cases
AI Data Center and GPU Cluster Validation
-
AI workloads generate bursty traffic that can overwhelm network fabrics with congestion and latency spikes. TestCenter B3 800G solutions emulate AI-scale traffic and validate lossless Ethernet performance, ensuring networks can support demanding GPU clusters and AI training environments.
800G Switch and Router Validation
-
Next-generation switches and routers must deliver predictable performance at extreme speeds. TestCenter B3 validates forwarding, buffering, and resiliency at full 800G line rate, helping uncover bottlenecks and scaling limits before deployment. Autonomous Flow Tracking adds visibility into complex scenarios like BGP route import, at scale.
Multi-Vendor and Interoperability Validation
-
Modern data centers rely on complex multi-vendor ecosystems. Integration issues can delay deployments and increase risk. TestCenter B3 provides a neutral platform to validate interoperability across switches, NICs, optics, and software stacks, accelerating integration and deployment.
AI-Driven Test Automation
-
Building and orchestrating complex 800G test scenarios traditionally requires deep scripting expertise. TestCenter B3 supports Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration, letting teams create, execute, and manage tests through natural-language prompts — reducing setup time and expanding access to automation beyond specialized scripting teams.
