FCC Shouldn't Pick ORAN 'Winners and Losers,' Says TIA

The FCC shouldn’t impose mandates on any program that funds deployment of open radio access networks, said the Telecommunications Industry Association. Replies were due Friday on an FCC notice of inquiry in docket 21-63. “We have been a longstanding proponent of government maintaining a technology neutral approach when it comes to adopting policies involving emerging and existing technologies and solutions,” TIA said: “The FCC should not put itself in a position where it is picking winners and losers in this market.”
