What is ORAN?

O-RAN (Open Radio Access Network) is a set of standards promoting openness and virtualization in radio access networks. It aims to disaggregate hardware and software components, enabling greater flexibility, innovation, and competition among vendors. O-RAN architectures typically involve virtualized baseband units (BBUs) and remote radio units (RRUs) connected via open interfaces, allowing operators to mix and match components from different vendors and deploy network functions in a more agile and cost-effective manner. It is commonly used to improve network performance, reduce costs, and foster innovation in 5G and future mobile networks.
