Operators need to deploy
more bandwidth while
minimizing CAPEX & OPEX
C-RAN IS THE MOBILE OPERATOR SOLUTION
Operators WW evolving
RADIO ACCESS NETWORKS
to Centralized Baseband to
minimize CAPEX and OPEX
“Solving the mobile fronthaul networking challenge is the key to
enabling C-RAN. As the standard protocol for carrier-grade transport,
OTN is a very compelling option, and we’re excited to see ecosystem
partners like PMC innovating to deliver solutions.”
Dr. Chih-Lin I, Chief Scientist of Wireless Technologies,
China Mobile Research Institute, CMCC
