Published as part of the Forbes Technology Council series. Open RAN (ORAN) has been a key area of innovation in the telecommunications industry in recent years. Open RAN disaggregates the radio access network (RAN) and enables a modular architecture with open interfaces. RAN disaggregation permits faster innovation, lower operating expenses for operators and unique ways to optimize…
Nothing spells celebration like a cake cutting ceremony and that is just what Turkcell officials hosted in their headquarters in Istanbul, Turkey – a celebration to mark the achievement of a milestone in Voice digitization. Turkcell embarked on a network transformation journey with Mavenir to virtualize its LTE voice network. By the end of…
Today, a focus on sustainability is foundational to a company’s corporate citizenship. As countries and companies work to build better networks, they must also ensure that they are sustainable.
FWA can help accelerate broadband adoption in rural areas and enable real competition in sub-urban areas by allowing MNOs to offer speeds and latency that match those of cable.
Why did Mavenir partner with Northeastern University? Mavenir was excited to work with Northeastern University largely due to their wireless IoT initiative called Colosseum, which has focused on the Open RAN compliant network simulator. Mavenir is engaging with other universities as well globally. Many of these universities are working on similar applications and concepts as…
A cloud-native network opens several new possibilities for the service providers to deliver a differentiated experience and accelerate the launch of new services even as they bring down the total cost of ownership of running the network.
Communication Service Providers (CSPs) are transitioning from physical to cloud networks to improve operational efficiency and network resiliency while also reducing operating costs.
Mavenir’s Ashok Khuntia, President of Core Networks, discusses the recent announcement by customer Deutsche Telekom of their deployment of Mavenir’s Converged Packet Core to power their 5G standalone (SA) network
The journey towards full cloud-native networks needs to be meticulously planned and executed so service providers are able to reap the promised benefits. In a recent interview with TelecomTV, Mavenir’s Bejoy Pankajakshan, EVP Chief Technology and Strategy Officer, elaborates on the key milestones for building a fully cloud-native network.
The real key to unlocking the value of the O-RAN RIC is having CU/DUs support both the O- and E2- interface capabilities. Without both, CSPs get nothing more than a variant of legacy SON, instead of true near-RT RAN optimization and cost advantages.
