I'll believe OpenRAN when I see the interop party. Telco suppliers loath open standards - in practice they are usually only implemented as far as necessary to tick a RFP checkbox. Better than nothing though.
- tpmx 6y agoYeah, I'll tend to agree. I think this is Germany being Germany. As a Swede: I've long thought that EU will split up in northern/southern parts. Germany is in the middle - this is a stab in the back of Sweden. Before this I thought Germany might end up in the northern part. Now they have forged an alliance with Finland/Nokia.
- bilekas 6y agoStab in the back of Sweden ? How so? Because of lower barrier for entry that might hurt Ericsson's bottom line ? Ericsson will still be at the forefront of EU infrastructure, they have the money to do it and will earn from that, their reputation too is already favoured in the EU over Huwawei.. Which is the whole point. But sure.. Swexit, lets 'extrapolate' that out then, Ericsson will then be under increased tarrifs and excluded from initial EU contract proposals. They have not forged an alliance with anyone, they are leveling the market to allow for other competitors and not have a bottleneck on suppliers.
