Global Coalition on Telecommunications: Open RAN certification principles

HTML

Details

The UK, Australia, Canada, Japan and United States of America, as the Global Coalition on Telecommunications (GCOT), have published voluntary principles aimed at supporting the creation of an industry-led certification programme for Open RAN products.

Open RAN aims to increase the number of market entrants in telecoms supply chains, but there are currently barriers preventing widespread deployment.

GCOT members will not develop the certification programme. Instead, these principles set a framework for how the industry could create it.
