Mavenir deploys cloud-hosted Open RAN 4G/5G campus network in Dallas

Cloud-native telco software provider Mavenir Thursday said it has deployed a 4G/5G campus network in Dallas, Texas, with Open Virtualized Radio Access Network (Open vRAN) Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) capability as part of OnGo Private Network deployments.

To begin with, Mavenir’s CBRS/OnGo product offering addresses macro, enterprise, and industry 4.0 use cases while the private network solution offering– MAVedge includes radio and core for the CBRS/OnGo connectivity across various applications.

These applications include MAVair, a full-suite of 4G/5G FCC and OnGo based Citizen Broadband Service Devices (CBSD) for both indoor and outdoor applications, zero-touch provisioning, and analytics; and smart poles, CBRS/OnGo Open vRAN, and MAVcore 4G/5G Evolved Packet Core (EPC), that delivered on-premise, hybrid and cloud-hosted CBRS/OnGo as a service.

The company said it has completed interoperability testing with third-party solution providers, including multiple Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) to demonstrate an Open vRAN-based private network, as per an official statement.

Additionally, the campus demonstrates throughput, handover, and full carrier aggregation across both General Authorized Access (GAA) and Priority Access License (PAL) spectrum.

The campus will also cover 5G sub-6GHz and 5G millimeter wave (mmWave) network testing capabilities in the coming months, the statement added.

“The Mavenir 4G/5G Campus offers a network showcase Open vRAN and demonstrates open interoperability, test, and implementation of end-to-end user applications, including IoT sensor and device connectivity. Putting Mavenir on the map for municipalities, enterprises, and Communication Service Providers (CSP) looking to explore the possibilities available by operating a private network,” said Mavenir’s Aniruddho Basu, SVP and GM of Emerging Business.
