Marvell announced to join the Open RAN Policy Alliance

On September 1st, Marvell officially announced that it joined the Open RAN Policy Coalition to provide hardware and software support for the development and deployment of Open RAN 5G technology. Before, Marvell has been an active participant in the O-RAN Alliance.


Raj Singh, Executive Vice President of Marvell’s Business Unit, said: “The combination of technological innovation, open standards and forward-looking policy coordination is the basic element for establishing the Open RAN Policy Alliance for a diversified competitive market. We hope to join the alliance and jointly innovate for 5G. make a contribution."

Oguz Sunay, Vice President of Research and Development of the Open Network Foundation, said: "A few years ago, the Marvell team worked with a major US telecom operator. The two parties jointly explored the possibility of an open virtual RAN solution. Marvell is the first virtual RAN. The main participants of the project."

With the rapid emergence of new protocols (such as 5G NR) and innovative methods of network topology (such as RAN decomposition and virtualization), the experience of wireless mobile communication networks is constantly evolving. The key to the future success of these emerging technologies is the openness of the interface and the ability of market participants to continue to innovate. By promoting network virtualization and software-defined networking centered on open source code architecture, O-RAN proponents assert that 5G standards that promote open, transparent and interoperable networks will help build a supply chain ecosystem to maximize To reduce concerns about technological fragmentation under the current increasingly prominent geopolitics. Marvell believes that their RAN solution can enable existing suppliers and new market participants to make breakthroughs in the deployment of next-generation wireless communication technologies.

Both Nokia and Samsung have expressed their welcome to Marvell joining the Open RAN policy alliance at the official level, and it is expected that more semiconductor companies will join the policy alliance.

The development of Marvell has been focusing on the development of the mobile communication industry. In 2006, Marvell invested 600 million US dollars to acquire Intel's mobile communication chip business and established its own mobile phone business unit on this basis. In 2013, when China's 4G license was issued, Marvell also led its rivals MediaTek and Spreadtrum to launch the first 4G chip for a thousand-yuan smartphone.

After 2016, Marvell gradually sold its mobile communications department and further reduced its product line, but the company still maintained its core competitiveness in communications networks and various wireless connection technologies.
