Open RAN Update

The Open Radio Access Networks (RAN) industry is dynamically evolving, transitioning from closed, monolithic architectures to open architectures that are based on the decomposition of physical and virtual functions, supporting interoperable interfaces that enable multi-vendor deployments.

While encouraging competition among vendors, open RAN simultaneously drives supply chain diversification. This same broadening of the RAN ecosystem opens up innovation opportunities. Simultaneously, Open RAN delivers both a simplified network management, that is now standardized across multiple vendors, as well as being highly scalable through the use of cloud-native operations.
