RAN Connect

Portfolio

Ericsson RAN Connect allows CSPs to aggregate radio traffic to a high-capacity fronthaul interface, unlocking the full potential of modern RAN Compute capabilities.

The RAN evolution will create new fronthaul opportunities. This is why we’re introducing the new RAN Connect portfolio. A canvas to create efficiency and openness.

  • To create greater radio site scalability and performance to fully leverage the compute power in RAN Compute
  • To utilize the bandwidth efficiencies and operational opportunities that come with packetization in fronthaul
  • To allow for increased observability and manageability for open fronthaul
OUR KEY BENEFITS

Efficiency

Unleash the full potential of RAN Compute
through improved utilization of the compute power. 
It enables up to 33% more radios per RAN Compute

Resilience

Industry leading sync solution with RAN centric sync 
features and simultaneous fronthaul and backhaul 
sync support. Up to 15x longer hold-over for TDD radios

Ready for the future

Enables an easy evolution to Cloud RAN deployments as well as Centralized RAN by taking the first step aggregating to a common fronthaul interface. With this first step, all possibilities are open for new network architectures and increased traffic.

Accelerate your journey to high performance with RAN Connect

Ericsson RAN Connect introduces a unified high-capacity fronthaul solution that aggregates several of your radios or radio sites to a single AI-powered platform – giving you scalable performance on-demand, enhanced RAN compute power and significantly lower operational costs through new remote radio rehoming possibilities.
