Transforming RAN Connectivity
5G vRAN connectivity resource center.
Changing RAN Deployments Offer Transformation for vRAN
Communications Service Providers are transitioning from closed proprietary RAN systems to open, disaggregated solutions with off-the-shelf components that provide greater flexibility and simplicity and lower TCO.
Intel® Ethernet Network Adapters with hardware-enhanced timing synchronization enable service providers to build vRAN solutions to meet unique customer needs, including system size and budget.
