WHAT IS OPEN RAN?
Open Radio Access Networks (RAN) is a new approach to building the mobile networks that are needed to connect smartphones and other devices to the internet and other users. Traditional RAN solutions generally require telecommunications operators to work with single suppliers across an entire mobile site. This approach can be a barrier to entry for smaller suppliers that might not have the financial requirements or the resources to build and manage solutions across the entire RAN ecosystem (e.g. radio antenna, baseband units, CU/DU servers, management and orchestration software, etc.). Open RAN technology enables the creation of all software and hardware components of the RAN to be built to industry-wide specifications, ensuring interoperability between each component. This means telecommunications operations can choose the best solution providers for each component, safe in the knowledge that components will work together and the rest of the network (i.e. able to exchange data and information).

The modular design of Ku:l Extreme is highly configurable to enable rapid scalability across all types of deployments. From a single server at a cellular base station, to a ruggedized solution for the Far Edge, to an enterprise-grade data center, each Ku:l Extreme unit easily can be dropped into place at any location. The solution supports both high-performance liquid and air-cooled devices while optimizing serviceability and simplifying maintenance across the data center estate. Ku:l Extreme is bringing data-center class compute to the extreme Far Edge while helping customers achieve their sustainability and net-zero targets.
