Intel at MWC: Panel Discusses “How is the O-RU reference architecture driving 5G Radio Development?”
Telecom operators need to reduce development time and while implementing new solutions to increase the performance and reliability of 5G networks in a cost-effective manner. Operators have already implemented open systems in their network cores and virtualizing functions, and now they want to achieve the same benefits with RANs including Radio Units (RUs). The Open RU (O-RU) roadmap covers both traditional macro radios and Massive MIMO and addresses key challenges including overall design cost reduction and accelerated time-to-market without sacrificing system-level power and performance. A 30-minute panel discussion about O-RU developments titled “How is the O-RU reference architecture driving 5G Radio Development?” in the Intel® Network & Edge Panel Series discusses the key digital, analog, RF technology, and business considerations that will enable radio ODMs, CMs, and System Integrators to offer flexible and scalable end-to-end RAN solutions. Panel participants include: Tero Kola, VP, System Product Management, Mobile Networks Business Group, Nokia Francisco (Paco) Martin, Group Head of OPEN RAN, Vodafone Rajesh Srinivasa, SVP and GM, Radio Business Unit, Mavenir Mike Fitton, VP, Intel Programmable Solutions Network Business Division, Intel Corporation Nitin Sharma, GM, Wireless Communications, Analog Devices, Inc (ADI) Moderator: Guy Daniels, Director of Content, TelecomTV Interested?

From the edge to the cloud, security challenges in the form of cyberattacks and data breaches loom ever larger as attacks on high-speed networks multiply. Massive amounts of data are at risk but so are physical resources including critical physical infrastructure. Cryptography and authentication represent potent countermeasures to these attacks. The latest members of the Intel® Agilex™ FPGA and SoC FPGA families (AGF023/AGF019 and AGI023/AGI019) now feature high-performance crypto blocks paired with MACsec soft IP to help mitigate the risks and limit the effects of these cyberattacks. Here’s a diagram showing the major features of these new Intel Agilex FPGAs with high-performance crypto blocks: A new White Paper titled “Intel® Agilex™ FPGAs target IPUs, SmartNICs, and 5G Networks” describes these Intel Agilex FPGAs with high-performance crypto blocks in more detail.
