Today, CoSPs want an open architecture, flexible deployment model and scaling which will provide better coverage, improved user experience and private networks for connected devices and users. ASOCS has been an early advocate and pioneer of opening and virtualizing the RAN and an active contributor to the work done by ORAN and TIP.

Eran Bello, General Manager for ASOCS Inc. joins Intel® Chip Chat Network Insights in this interview recorded as a virtual livecast in lieu of MWC Barcelona.

Eran highlights the commercial availability of its standalone 5G virtual RAN solution CYRUS 2.0, a 5G/4G single software stack for virtual base station target for LAN and WAN use cases. Eran explains why this 5G SA solution is ideal for private networks using advance 5G connected devices and where the market stands currently with vRAN solution deployments.
