About This Webinar
Open RAN, or O-RAN, takes a totally disaggregated approach to deploy open mobile fronthaul and midhaul 5G networks. O-RAN will be built on virtualized networks elements, white box hardware and standardized open interfaces enabling a new mobile network eco-system reducing time to market, lower deployment costs and proving true vendor interoperability. This webinar will provide a detailed overview of O-RAN, network equipment elements, summarize requirements and introduce Silicon Labs timing solutions for 5G O-RAN systems.
