i14y Lab Services - Making Open RAN ready for market

Through testing, validation, and certification we want to accelerate time to market for your network disaggregation components.

We want to help get your O-RU, O-DU, O-CU or RIC ready for showtime and put you in a position to market your great product.

i14y Lab Services - Making Open RAN ready for market

Know what to test

Standardized testing for valid open RAN certification through collaboration.

At the i14y Lab we are leveraging O-RAN-ALLIANCE OTIC badges and certificates and Telecom Infrastructure Project (TIP) exchange and badging to provide testing, badging, and certification that makes open RAN components ready for market. 

 

We see ourselves as part of an ecosystem that must work together to improve the testing standards through building on real-world, market-validated, and operator-centric requirements. Through our consortium partners Deutsche Telekom, Telefonica, and Vodafone we are involved in the MoU-Group also including Orange and TIM. The group collaborates to accelerate the development of competitive open RAN solutions.

 

And through our partners O-RAN Alliance, Telecom Infra Project, Open Networking Foundation (ONF), and ONAP we are contributing to the creation of blueprints that are the foundation of badges and certificates relevant to the market.

Benefits of Open RAN testing and certification at the i14y Lab

On-Site or remote

We have you covered: Our services are available for both on-site and remote testing.

For the entire Open RAN ecosystem

We are a vendor neutral, open lab that is accessible to all Open RAN ecosystem players

Addressing Open RAN testing needs

Covering the testing needs from early development to pre-certification / -badging and finally badging and certification, our services are addressing all the relevant steps to help get your open RAN component from prototype to market ready.

Open and neutral

As a vendor neutral OTIC we are closely collaborating with the O-RAN Alliance as well as with TIP, and have many cooperations with labs worldwide, making us your open and neutral partner for valid testing, badging, and certification.

Minimize Upfront Investment

With our Test as a Service we offer you our lab test bed and our expertise. That is everything you need to develop your Open RAN component to certification and market readiness while minimizing your upfront investment in building out O-RAN testing capabilities.

Certification and Badging for Open RAN

Badging and certification will serve as essential enablers towards the success of open RAN, accelerating time to market and unlocking the full potential of disaggregated network architectures. By fostering interoperability, standardization, and quality assurance, these mechanisms empower operators with greater agility, flexibility, and innovation. 

 

As the telecommunications industry continues to embrace the principles of openness and disaggregation, we believe the role of badging and certification will remain paramount in driving forward the evolution of network infrastructure.

Professional Services

You are leading the way in developing next-generation Open RAN equipment. We at the i14y Lab have the people and the knowledge to make badging and certification easier for faster Open RAN deployments.

We conduct to verify and certify compliance of your O-RU or O-DU/O-CU to O-RAN Alliance specifications.

With Open RAN interoperability tests and badging we prove the interoperability of a pair connected via an O-RAN interface or a profiled O-RAN-3GPP interface, another important step towards getting open RAN on the road.

Our end-to-end tests and badging close the circle, validating a component from the user terminal to an application in the network and back. This minimizes the effort required for your Open RAN implementations. We are confident in our ability to provide comprehensive testing solutions for your Open RAN implementations. Refer to the test specifications for further information.
