goRAN Ignition Kits can enable companies to quickly and easily deploy zero-configuration LTE-M/NB-IoT networks.
Ubiik Inc. along with Monogoto has announced goRAN Ignition Kits. These kits can enable companies to quickly and easily deploy cellular IoT solutions in the field. The tool can enable plug-and-play deployment of private LTE networks at any scale, it will reduce time and cost of deployment, thus, helping smaller companies to compete and grow in the field of telecommunication.
The goRAN kit is a full-software Release 15 Radio Access Network (RAN) designed for private networks. It supports multi-carrier standalone NB-IoT, standalone LTE-M in 1.4MHz and 3MHz bandwidth, as well as LTE Cat-1 and Cat-1bis up to 5MHz bandwidth. The kit comes along with all necessary tool needed to use it right out of the box. It enables customers to get started with deploying zero-configuration LTE-M/NB-IoT networks. The kit incorporates the world’s first Release 15 Cellular IoT (LTE-M/NB-IoT) Small Cell for private and hybrid LTE networks.
The company says that the goRAN Ignition Kits include everything needed to get started with deploying a complete LTE-M/NB-IoT network. The kit includes a fully-integrated LTE-M/NB-IoT Radio Access Network with a software-defined radio architecture. The architecture supports both the FDD and the TDD bands from 400MHz to 2.6GHz. The kit is benefits from Monogoto’s cloud-based platform which is a secure cloud-native Core Network and offers a provisioning and management interface.
The module can also support voice applications via VoLTE both for LTE-M and Cat-1. Furthermore, it can operate either as an eNodeB connecting securely to an external Evolved Packet Core (EPC) or as an all-in-one Access Point with built-in EPC and integrated Home Subscriber Server (HSS).
“We are thrilled to be partnering with Ubiik to offer our cloud-based platform, enabling plug-and-play deployment of private LTE networks at any scale,” said Maor Efrati, CTO of Monogoto. “We see the benefits from the cloud for private and hybrid LTE networks, and we are excited to offer it alongside Ubiik’s goRAN.”
