Dish Tells FCC Open Networks Better
Dish Network representatives told FCC staff that open radio access networks offer vendor flexibility, will enhance spectrum utilization and network slicing, and mean a more secure network. “DISH is well underway in its construction of a first-of-its-kind, cloud native, virtualized O-RAN 5G network,” said a filing posted Wednesday in docket 21-63: “Because DISH is building a greenfield network, we have the flexibility to choose the best technology to enter the market.”
