NEC Corporation has introduced its open virtualized RAN software suite to the international market. This new vCU/vDU software suite guarantees seamless migration from 4G to 5G and beyond. It also ensures standards-based interfaces for integration with ORAN Radio Units and other components of the multi-vendor ecosystem.
The virtualized CU/DU features pre-integrated NEC radio units, core, and transport blueprints, and is also certified with a range of third-party RUs, allowing quick time to market. NEC’s cloud-native vCU/vDU software suite is fully open and automated for deployment and consolidated operation, supporting 3GPP and O-RAN interfaces on private and public cloud infrastructure.
It leverages the benefits of cloud-native architecture, including horizontal and vertical scaling, auto-healing, and redundancy and is architected for mobile network evolution, including the next-generation radio technologies (i.e., 5G-Advanced and 6G).
NEC Open Networks is an ecosystem that provides operators with choice in every category with best-of-breed solutions and services from both NEC and its partners in Open RAN radio units, software, open transport, converged packet core, automation, and orchestration.
Patrick Lopez, NEC’s Vice President of Product Management for 5G, said, “We’re giving our customers another option of a pre-integrated, automated vCU/vDU solution to define their RAN blueprints while benefiting from a virtualized Open RAN compliant system. The NEC OvRAN vCU/vDU software suite is built to bring operators into the cloud native world with no compromise on performance or quality.”
