Open RAN updates to CommScope portfolio enable
all-digital network connectivity and offer greater speed,
flexibility, and sustainability in 5G enterprise installations
CommScope (NASDAQ: COMM), a global leader in network
connectivity, has announced three industry-leading Open RAN (Radio
Access Network) advances to its network portfolio—facilitating
open, sustainable, and converged 5G indoor networks.
CommScope is introducing support for third-party Open RAN
Distributed Units (O-DUs) on its flagship all-digital ERA® DAS
(distributed antenna system) as well as the award-winning Open
RAN-compliant ONECELL® small cell. Additionally, CommScope is
seamlessly supporting Open RAN on its in-building radios.
“CommScope is taking an important step for the industry in
driving the indoor adoption of Open RAN technology,” stated Upendra
Pingle, Senior Vice President, Intelligent Cellular Networks,
CommScope. “Traditionally, Open RAN has focused on enhancing macro
and outdoor networks, but we’ve extended these benefits to indoor
networks to offer unprecedented flexibility in delivering
on-premises 5G coverage, capacity, and control for both public and
private networks. These innovations are a testament to CommScope's
commitment to advancing 5G and underscore our ongoing investment in
our partner ecosystem.”
CommScope is adding native Open RAN interface support for ERA
systems, extending current support for third-party
interoperability. This allows venues to adopt open 5G connectivity
that is completely digital—not only for the DAS, but also for MNO
(mobile network operator) and private network connectivity. The ERA
platform’s O-DU support enables new deployment models with
zero-touch configuration, leading-edge performance, and minimal in
venue MNO footprints that can reduce the environmental impact
associated with traditional DAS deployments by nearly 90%.
For the ONECELL platform, CommScope is extending its current
virtualized open fronthaul access to support third-party O-DUs—an
industry first. This enables MNOs to leverage both native small
cell and new Open RAN integration options while accelerating
multi-operator 5G adoption for enterprises.
CommScope’s extension of Open RAN support to its
software-defined radios—across both the ERA and ONECELL
platforms—converges and simplifies radio selection, making it
easier for customers to adapt to evolving technologies while
benefitting from seamless, high-quality cellular coverage.
Kyung Mun, Principal Analyst at Mobile Experts, noted, “We have
predicted the convergence of DAS and small cell technology for
enabling flexible coverage and capacity network solutions in indoor
venues for some time. CommScope’s adoption of Open RAN for the ERA
and ONECELL platforms is an excellent example of this convergence
as operators and enterprises seek flexible indoor networks to
extend 5G services into public and private venues.”
