Xilinx, Inc. (NASDAQ: XLNX), the leader in adaptive and
intelligent computing, today announced it has joined the Open RAN
Policy Coalition to support the development and deployment of Open
RAN 5G technologies. The Open RAN Policy Coalition membership
promotes Open RAN as the solution of choice for greater
interoperability and security among a multi-vendor ecosystem.
Xilinx has been an active member of the O-RAN alliance and a
contributor to the 3GPP specifications for 5G mobile networks.
Under the Open RAN Policy Coalition, Xilinx will continue to
collaborate with members and key stakeholders to ensure 5G and
future networks will be openly developed, interoperable, and
adaptable.
“The Open RAN 5G infrastructure rollout represents a significant
opportunity as Xilinx is well positioned with the most
comprehensive range of devices and platforms for 5G radio,
fronthaul and hardware acceleration solutions on the market today,”
said Liam Madden, executive vice president and general manager,
Wired and Wireless Group, Xilinx. “We are proud to join the Open
RAN Policy Coalition and collaborate with its members to deliver to
the coalition’s vision of highly interoperable, secure, and open
networks.”
“Altiostar is pleased to see Xilinx join the Open RAN Policy
Coalition and continue collaborating together toward open 5G

Mavenir senior vice president. “Xilinx is a leader in the wireless
industry and its adaptable technology brings strong value with
performance and cost benefits that align with the goals of the Open
