Marvell collaborates to deliver NTT DOCOMO OREX RAN solutions

Marvell Technology (MRLV) announced it has collaborated with leading companies to develop Open RAN solutions for use in NTT DOCOMO’s OREX RAN infrastructure. Together, Marvell, Dell Technologies (DELL), Fujitsu and Wind River have combined critical silicon, system and software expertise to create Open RAN offerings that are commercially available to NTT DOCOMO and other carriers. Open RAN is set to account for 20-30% of worldwide RAN revenues by 2028, up from 7%-10% in 2024, according to a February 2024 report by Dell’Oro Group. “By working in a collaborative ecosystem, Marvell is helping raise the performance of Open RAN systems, striving for power, functionality and features on par with traditional 5G RAN systems,” said Will Chu, senior vice president and general manager, Custom, Compute and Storage Group at Marvell. “The fourth generation of Marvell OCTEON 10 technology meets the demanding requirements of NTT DOCOMO’s OREX RAN specifications. We’re excited to move the Open RAN market forward alongside NTT DOCOMO, Dell Technologies, Fujitsu and Wind River.”
