31 companies join hands to hasten adoption of Open RAN
By MYBRANDBOOK
Thirty-one technology companies across globe launched the Open RAN (Radio Access Network) Policy Coalition. The coalition members include companies like Airspan, Altiostar, AWS, AT&T, Cisco, CommScope, Dell, DISH Network, Facebook, Fujitsu, Google, IBM, Intel, Juniper Networks, Mavenir, and others.
The Policy Coalition focuses on accelerating innovation, stimulate competition and expand the supply chain for advanced networks, like the 5G network.
The Coalition said it believes that the U.S. Federal Government has an important role to play in facilitating and fostering an open, diverse and secure supply chain for advanced wireless technologies, by means of funding R&D, and testing open and interoperable networks and solutions, and incentivizing supply chain diversity.
Diane Rinaldo, Executive Director, Open RAN Policy Coalition said that standardization and the development of open interfaces can ensure interoperability and security across players and can reduce entry barriers for new innovators.
In the old generation mobile networks, the networks were deployed using fully integrated cell sites, where components were provided by a single manufacturer as a proprietary solution.
However, the industry is transitioning towards standardizing the technical specifications that define open interfaces between radios, hardware, and software to ensure that networks can be deployed by multiple vendors.
Highlighting the benefits of multi-vendor deployments, Open RAN said such deployments can led to a competitive market and provide greater ability to operators so that they can harness the innovations of multiple suppliers to upgrade their infrastructure with the latest technology.
This arrangement also lets operators to mitigate network threats and enables them to replace or address vulnerable network equipment. They can also shift network capacity based on demand.
