JMA Wireless and the Italian mobile network operators are reducing operating costs through a smaller footprint, lower consumption, and greater simplicity of installation compared to traditional RAN equipment.  The existing platform is addressing the emerging demand to move RAN assets toward software virtualization and continuing to drive intelligence to the edge of the network.  “Implementing JMA’s XRAN software directly aligns with our goal to become the most innovative digital Telco with the largest mobile network in Italy,” said Benoit Hanssen, Chief Technology in Wind Tre.
