The Dell’Oro Group published a recent report that the firm said shows that the Open RAN movement has “come a long way in just a few years” and is accelerating faster than initially expected. In fact, the group has revised Open RAN expectations upward to reflect the higher baseline, and now projects that Open RAN will account for 15% to 20% of global RAN by 2027. Dell’Oro also expects Open RAN revenue to top $1 billion by that same year, with macros accounting for roughly 90% of O-RAN capex.
