Open RAN is bridging developing markets and underserved areas with network access. For MNOs it is an opportunity to experiment with new vendors and architectures, open new business opportunities but also find a new purpose to Open RAN.
Watch as John Baker, SVP of Ecosystem Business Development, discusses how three models stand out regarding RAN transformation: the deployments of virtual, Cloud and Open RAN in different environments and the different locations of DU and CU will introduce multiple new use cases.
For operators, hosting radio workloads in cloud environments can facilitate a host of optimizations based on near-real-time network telemetry and the ability to act on that data. For enterprise customers focused not on technology but on use cases and attendant outcomes, Open RAN is the path forward—complex problems require tailored solutions.
