US Cellular has become the latest company to join the Open RAN movement, with its official announcement that it is now a part of the Open RAN Policy Coalition, a group focused on policies that will support adoption of open and interoperable solutions in the RAN.
“We are a strong proponent of open and interoperable network systems,” said Narothum Saxena, vice president of advanced technology and systems planning at US Cellular, “and we are excited to work with industry partners on the advantages that an open Radio Access Network (RAN) can bring to 5G deployments and other emerging technologies. It fosters innovation and promotes healthy competition.”
