How can you accelerate RAN deployments?

Perhaps the most critical aspect of preparing to deliver 5G services is building the Radio Access Network (RAN) itself. Far from being a plug and play exercise, this complex undertaking brings with it many challenges, including tight schedules and budgets to ensuring interoperability with multiple vendors. This fact sheet explores these and other challenges, and how to manage the many facets of RAN deployment:

• Multivendor laboratory testing
• Material logistics
• Total system quality and lifecycle management
• Installation and commissioning
• Provisioning and field testing
