"This is precisely the type of partnership we imagined for our innovation ecosystem," Richardson City Manager Don Magner said of the new lab, which is affiliated with UT Dallas' Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science under the leadership of AT&T and Verizon.
The Open RAN Testing, Evaluation and R&D Center will be located in the Dallas area with a satellite location near Washington, D.C. The center will test and evaluate Open RAN hardware and software—which could help lead to the adoption of a more flexible, interoperable wireless infrastructure.
"With this collaboration, we will open up radio access networks, drive innovation, spur competition, and connect more Americans with 5G and fiber," said AT&T's Chris Sambar.
As telcos around the world make the shift from hardware-based to software-based networks, Richardson-based Mavenir is leading the charge toward this major industry transformation. President and CEO Pardeep Kohli says the new capital “will allow us to accelerate our capabilities in automation, sustainability, and use of AI as we enable our customers to efficiently deploy and operate Open RAN based end-to-end cloud-native networks."
Mavenir—an early advocate for OpenRAN—wants to drive open innovation and security in 5G. The expansion will energize the Remote Radio Unit ecosystem, it says.
