U.K. telco Vodafone confirmed it has officially started the installation of Open RAN (O-RAN) equipment for 2,500 sites in Wales and in certain regions of England, the telco said in a release.
The telco noted that O-RAN technology will be used to replace legacy Huawei technology across 2,500 mobile sites in Wales and the south west of England. Vodafone said that this multi-year phased delivery will enable the company to remove all High-Risk Vendor (HRV) technology from the Radio Access Network (RAN) within Government timelines.
