December 5 marked a significant step forward for telecommunications. The United States presented $1.7 million in Open RAN test bed equipment to CPQD, a leading research and development hub. This equipment will allow CPQD to conduct field tests on supplier-provided equipment, support industry adoption of Open RAN, and contribute alongside other public and private sector actors. This milestone underscores our shared commitment with Brazil to innovation and supplier diversity in the telecommunications sector. Open RAN enables mobile network operators to use equipment from multiple vendors, fostering a flexible, resilient, and competitive ecosystem. CPQD will leverage this equipment to conduct field tests, support Open RAN adoption, and help establish a robust regulatory framework in Brazil. This initiative has the power to foster a diverse supplier ecosystem, and drive 5G innovation in Brazil. This initiative is a testament to the shared vision of the U.S. and Brazil for innovation and diversity in telecom. Together, we’re fostering a dynamic telecom landscape that drives innovation, enhances competition, and promotes secure, next-generation technologies. 📖 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gACBEdFm
