Keysight (NYSE: KEYS) enabled SK hynix to earn its first OCP S.A.F.E. recognition for an SSD solution on October 21, 2025. Keysight, an approved OCP S.A.F.E. Security Review Provider, performed a Scope 1 firmware and hardware interaction assessment using a proprietary code security framework that integrates industry standards like CVSS with Keysight-developed criteria.

SK hynix’s PEB110 E1.S device received a high rating, reflecting Keysight’s methodology and SK hynix engineering practices; the engagement highlights supply-chain security emphasis for hyperscale data centers and firmware-level protections.

Keysight (NYSE: KEYS) completed the acquisition of Synopsys' Optical Solutions Group and Ansys' PowerArtist on October 17, 2025. The deals add optical design and photonics tools (including CODE V, LightTools, LucidShape, ImSym, and RSoft) and an RTL pre-synthesis power-analysis platform (PowerArtist).

These additions expand Keysight’s design engineering software and multi-physics simulation capabilities, aiming to enable earlier, more accurate optical and power design decisions and faster time-to-market across RF, analog, digital, photonics, and optics in a vendor-agnostic ecosystem.

Keysight Technologies (NYSE: KEYS) completed its acquisition of Spirent Communications (LSE: SPT) on October 15, 2025, for an aggregate consideration of approximately £1.16 billion (≈US $1.46 billion) on a fully diluted basis.

Spirent shareholders receive 202.5 pence per share (199 pence cash plus a 3.5 pence special dividend). Spirent will be delisted from the London Stock Exchange effective October 17, 2025, and its operations will be integrated into Keysight’s Communications Solutions Group.

All regulatory clearances were satisfied, and in line with DOJ consent decree and SAMR undertakings, Keysight and Spirent agreed to divest Spirent’s high-speed Ethernet, network security, and channel emulation business lines, with the divestiture expected to complete on October 16, 2025.

Keysight (NYSE: KEYS) introduced the AE6980T nGBASE-AU Optical Automotive Ethernet Transmitter Test Solution on October 14, 2025, the company says is the industry’s first platform to qualify optical automotive Ethernet PHYs to IEEE 802.3cz (Amendment 7, 2023).

The AE6980T, built on Keysight’s FlexDCA platform, adds a TDFOM-assisted measurement suite (TDFOM OMA, ER, AOP, OAR), automated compliance workflows, and HTML reporting to validate 2.5G–50G multimode-fiber links for software-defined and autonomous vehicle architectures. Keysight notes support for DCA-M oscilloscopes N1092A/N1092C with clock recovery via N1077B, and a development collaboration with KD that produced a software-based TDFOM reference receiver aligned to the standard.

Keysight (NYSE: KEYS) launched the D90203UAC UALink 1.0 transmitter compliance test solution to automate 200 Gb/s PAM4 transmitter validation for AI data-center interconnects. Used with Infiniium UXR real-time oscilloscopes, the application performs critical transmitter tests in minutes instead of hours, automates complex procedures for UALink, backplane, and cable Ethernet channels, and aims to accelerate product validation for the open UALink 1.0 standard. Keysight will demonstrate the solution at the OCP Global Summit, Oct 13–16, 2025.

Keysight (NYSE: KEYS) announced that 6G@UT at University of Texas at Austin selected Keysight’s 6G solutions to support digital twin research for wireless and autonomous systems on October 7, 2025.

Keysight tools will help 6G@UT integrate ray-tracing, telco configs, open datasets, lab measurements and live telemetry; calibrate and validate digital twins with real-time measurements; and simulate terrestrial and non-terrestrial networks including LEO, vehicular, smart city and factory scenarios.

The collaboration aims to accelerate 6G innovation, enable simulation-driven design, and support ML and generative AI model training and validation in realistic environments.

Keysight Technologies (NYSE: KEYS) has expanded its end-of-line (EOL) test portfolio with two new platforms: the EV2020B EV Manufacturing Functional Test Platform and the EV2020BE EV Manufacturing Functional Test Platform for EVSE. These solutions aim to help automakers and electric vehicle supply equipment manufacturers streamline production testing.

The platforms address key industry challenges including fragmented system architectures, standardization issues, and high testing costs. According to IEA forecasts cited in the release, electric car sales are expected to exceed 20 million units in 2025 (over 25% of global car sales) and account for more than 40% of all car sales globally by 2030.

The new platforms offer customizable configurations for testing DC-DC converters and on-board chargers, while supporting both AC and DC charging standards with dynamic power sharing capabilities for dual-gun EVSE simulation.

Keysight Technologies (NYSE: KEYS) has launched WirelessPro 3GPP AI Simulation Platform, a next-generation software solution for wireless communication system engineers. The platform integrates modeling, prototyping, and validation capabilities with built-in AI/ML features and 3GPP standards alignment.

WirelessPro offers key features including seamless AI/ML model integration, unified simulation workflows, hybrid system modeling, developer APIs, and 3GPP standards alignment. The platform supports both link-level and system-level simulations, enabling engineers to simulate beam management, channel prediction, and mobility enhancement within a standards-aligned environment.
