With cloud-native applications and technology innovation in the software space for mobile communications, consistent with Mavenir’s DNA, these solutions support the ongoing cloudification of the mobile networks, to enable CSPs to meet the growing data demands on their networks.
The convergence of an Open RAN framework and the ongoing ascent of cloud computing in network infrastructure and services puts hyperscalers at the forefront of mobile network operations, according to John Baker, SVP of business development at Mavenir.
Today Mavenir announced a new business unit that will develop hardware and software designs for open RAN radios to create an ecosystem of radio vendors that will build open RAN radios for the specific needs of operators around the world.
Vilicom’s infrastructure has been developed in partnership with Mavenir using its Cloud RAN technology aligned to the JOTS Neutral Host In-Building connectivity model. O2 said it plans to connect the pilot rollout to its live network next year.
Vilicom, in partnership with cloud networking provider Mavenir, offers a virtualised, Open RAN-based connectivity-as-a-service (CaaS) platform.
Virtyt Koshi, general manager for EMEA at Mavenir, talks 5G, network flexibility and the power of Open RAN to usher in a new era of telecommunications.
Mavenir is now one of the world’s five largest providers of mobile core network technology, according to Dell’Oro Group. The core is essentially the “brain” that runs operators’ 4G and 5G networks.
In addition to using Mavenir software in its radio access network (RAN), Dish Network is tapping the Texas-based vendor’s cloud-native messaging platform for customer support services.
In summer 2020, the O-RAN ALLIANCE successfully conducted its second worldwide plugfest and proof of concept to demonstrate the functionality as well as the multi-vendor interoperability of O-RAN based network equipment.
