Neutral Host, Private Networks and More: Open RAN and open spectrum create new opportunities

New vendors are bringing interoperable, software-defined solutions to the radio access network market, enabling enterprises and infrastructure owners to develop creative new business models to deliver connectivity. At the same time, CBRS spectrum is giving enterprises and public sector entities a way to own and operate their own wireless networks. So far, most of these have not been interoperable with public networks. Will mobile network operators eventually connect to CBRS neutral host networks? Will open RAN reduce costs and increase opportunities for private networks, or will it add more complexity than enterprise customers want? This panel will explore these questions.
