CHANDLER, Ariz.
, June 24, 2025  /PRNewswire/ — VIAVI Solutions Inc. (VIAVI) (NASDAQ: VIAV) today announced that alternative network (Alt-Net) operator Netomnia has chosen VIAVI’s ONMSi Remote Fiber Test System (RFTS) to simplify and accelerate network installation and ongoing maintenance as the company rapidly expands its business in the UK.

Netomnia, UK’s second-largest Alt-Net, together with YouFibre and brsk, now has 2.5 million premises serviceable and 325,000 premises connected. With an annual build rate of one million premises, the group is poised to reach three million premises serviceable by end of 2025 with a new target of five million premises serviceable by the end of 2027.

VIAVI’s field-proven ONMSi will play a key role in supporting business growth by enhancing network rollout efficiencies and governance while optimizing maintenance and operation throughout the lifecycle. Netomnia will use a mobile app to leverage the ONMSi remote test-on-demand capability to perform end-to-end certification testing during the build stages. In addition, using reflector-less features, network health and performance will be monitored all the way through the premises’ optical network terminals (ONTs).

“The VIAVI OMNSi test system provides a platform on which we can construct a gold standard network,” said Jeremy Chelot, Group CEO, Netomnia, YouFibre and brsk. “The remote fiber test system is a critical element in enabling us to reach our ambitious goal to deploy a high-quality network covering five million premises and over 150 exchanges by the end of 2027.”
