Kyocera Teams Up with Six Telecom Partners to Launch ‘O-RU Alliance’
Kyocera Corporation today announced that it will establish the “O-RU Alliance” on March 3, 2025, in collaboration with the six telecommunications companies; Alpha Networks Inc. (Taiwan; Chairman/President/CEO: Wen Fang Huang), HFR, Inc. (Korea; CEO: Jong-Min Cheong), Microelectronics Technology Inc. (Taiwan; President and CEO: Eugene Wu), SOLiD Inc. (Korea; Vice Chairman and CEO: Seung Hee Lee), VVDN Technologies Pvt. Ltd (India; CEO: Puneet Agarwal), WNC (Wistron NeWeb Corporation) and (Taiwan; Director, President and CEO: Jeffrey Gau).
Kyocera will open its Central Unit/Distributed Unit platforms to promote the adoption of interoperable and flexible radio networks (Open RAN), the company said in a statement.
The O-RU Alliance’s Establishment
According to the company , current 5G wireless networks are made up of CUs (Central Units), DUs (Distributed Units), and RUs (Radio Units), installed either independently or partially integrated. Since the interfaces connecting these components are not publicly available, only devices from the same supplier or those with compatible interfaces can connect to the infrastructure. While procuring CU/DU/RU equipment from a single supplier may offer network operators certain benefits, it also limits system configuration freedom due to supplier-proprietary specifications and performance.
