CommAgility and GENEViSiO Partner to Deliver 5G O-RAN DU Products
February 22 2022 - 8:00AM
Wireless Telecom Group, Inc. (NYSE American: WTT), announced
today that its CommAgility brand is partnering with GENEViSiO, an
advanced open network pioneer in telecom infrastructure, to deliver
5G Open RAN (O-RAN) Distributed Unit (DU) products to system
integrators, operators and value-added resellers. The Open RAN
sector is growing rapidly, with more than 300 members (including
CommAgility) of the O-RAN ALLIANCE.
CommAgility and GENEViSiO have created a
cost-effective, high-performance solution for mobile operators
seeking the flexibility and cost efficiency of Open RAN networks.
The solution uses CommAgility's 5G New Radio (NR) software for NXP
Layerscape® and Layerscape Access devices, running on GENEViSiO's
PAC-010 DU Inline Accelerator card. By using the industry-standard
PCIe form factor, the PAC-010 offers 'plug and play' capabilities,
saving time in development and deployment.
Edward Young, Senior Vice President and Managing
Director at CommAgility, said: “GENEViSiO’s PAC-010 combines
efficient design with the convenient PCIe form factor, based around
the industry-leading performance of the NXP devices. This enables
us to re-use CommAgility's investment in 5G NR PHY and protocol
stack software for small cells, to create a flexible, powerful
Open-RAN solution.”
Byron Lin, CEO at GENEViSiO, said: “We’re
excited to partner with a strong developer such as CommAgility,
whose proven software can bring out the maximum performance of the
NXP processors.”
The O-RAN architecture defines several key
functional blocks, including the Distributed Unit (DU), Radio Unit
(RU) and Central Unit (CU). The physical layer (PHY) is split
across the DU and RU, with the DU hosting the PHY-high (and
other software layers). CommAgility's PHY-high software with
optional layer 2 protocol stack offers customers the flexibility
for a full DU board, or to put the entire L2/L3 functionality on
general purpose hardware.
The PAC-01x series is the world's first
ASIC-based PCIe DU solution, and leverages NXP's Layerscape Access
family of programmable baseband processors providing multiple 25GbE
eCPRI interfaces and maximum support for four 4T4R 100MHz RRH/RU.
For higher bandwidth Open RAN applications, full L1 processing
offload may be required, and in this case, an inline hardware
accelerator such as the PAC-010 is likely to deliver the best
results with lowest latency and minimum cores required.
At MWC Barcelona 2022, CommAgility will be at
Hall 7, Booth 7B20. It will be showcasing its hardware, software,
and integrated, pre-tested reference designs. The company’s
solutions are targeted at specialized, high-performance 5G and LTE
global applications, including private networks, and satellite and
air-to-ground communications.
