VNPT Corporation has officially become a member of the Open-RAN Radio Alliance (O-RAN Alliance) - an international organization promoting and enforcing the standardization and deployment of open radio access technology (Open RAN) in the world.

RAN is a part of a telecommunications system that connects devices to other parts of a network through a wireless radio connection. With Open-RAN, 5G infrastructure can no longer be dependent on the need for expensive proprietary hardware. Open-RAN technology has certain potential in the deployment of radio access networks, so it has attracted many organizations and manufacturers to participate in research, manufacturing and testing.

Becoming a member of O-RAN Alliance will help VNPT Group to gain the opportunity to access and exploit the knowledge and results developed by the Alliance with Open RAN technology to serve research and development of VNPT’s products. This will be the premise for VNPT Group to cooperate in testing, getting ready for the Open RAN ecosystem as well as expand its brand image through its presence at major technology organizations in the world. Moreover, the Group also has the opportunity to cooperate and test with equipment manufacturers that are members of the alliance, deploy and evaluate the Open RAN solution on VNPT's wireless network infrastructure, participate in the research series, develop Open RAN solution products, move towards mastering Open RAN solution equipment and technology on the basis of virtualization of radio network structure and on the basis of inheritance of knowledge systems and standards developed by the League.
