"The telecom industry is at a tipping point. ORAN is creating a multitude of new opportunities as leading mobile operators seek to disaggregate their networks and reap the benefits of ORAN" said Darron Enright, Director of Business Development at BMI. "With Intel's Agilex silicon components embedded, BMI ORUs will assist operators to meet their ORAN objectives in reducing the overall TCO of their networks as well as those for environmental sustainability. As mobile networks are considered a critical part of every national infrastructure, BMI has set up its radio manufacturing in the greater Toronto area and is acquiring partners like Intel as part of its strategy to create a robust, resilient and secure North American ORAN supply chain."

"Intel's new stand-alone business is thrilled to be at the forefront of Open Radio Access Network technologies through our cutting-edge Agilex FPGA products and investment in O-RAN enablement solutions. Intel's commitment to innovation aligns perfectly with BMI's vision for a more connected and energy efficient world" said Christian Lanzani, Director of Wireless Networking within Intel's Programmable Solution's group. "Together, Intel and BMI create real radio solutions based on Open RAN, enabling operators to achieve their goals of reduced operational and capital expenses. Our joint effort underscores the importance of resilient and secure supply chains, especially in critical national infrastructure sectors."

A demonstration of BMI and Intel technology is featured in the partner section at the INTEL booth in Hall 3 Stand 3E31 at Mobile World Congress Barcelona 2024. To meet BMI at the MWC Barcelona 2024, please contact us at [email protected].
