NEC has created a North American 5G “innovation unit” in New Providence, New Jersey, with the aim of expanding product development.
In a release, NEC also said that the new facility will enable the company to cater to the growing global demand for Open RAN solutions. The new entity, dubbed NEC Advanced Networks, was born out of the company’s acquisition of Blue Danube Systems earlier this year and “provides a critical base of operations for the company’s product innovations and solutions delivery activities,” the company said.
