The world’s second largest mobile operator, Vodafone, has been testing their latest OpenRAN in laboratories in South Africa and deployed it in Turkey delivering 2G and 4G in both rural and urban areas.

The OpenRAN technology, developed in a partnership with Intel, standardises the design of hardware and software in the infrastructure, masts and antennae that make up the radio access network that carries mobile calls and data. This type of tech and equipment is dominated by Ericsson, Nokia and China’s Huawei.

The US trade war against China has seen Huawei as a major casualty as it been blacklisted over allegedly security issues. As a result Washington has been pushing Europe to to do the same.

According to Vodafone’s CEO Nick Read, “OpenRAN improves the network economics enabling us to reach more people in rural communities and that supports our goal to build digital societies in which no one is left behind,”

OpenRAN is due to launch today in some 120 rural areas in Britain, and announced that the next trials will take place in Mozambique and Democratic Republic of Congo.

    We are seeking TIC partners for a major project in mozambique: There are many challenges to agricultural and rural development in Africa. Operationalization of the Agreement on investment, trade facilitation, services, technical barriers to trade, sanitary and phytosanitary measures and rules of origin, can contribute to agricultural development in the following four major ways: by creating larger markets for small farmers.

    The present project fits in the African perspective that we want for the year 2063 and has with objective the following ones:
    1. Provide access to information on the value chain of cash crops through the use of information and communication technology.
    2. Increase connectivity between producers in the rural family sector and consumers, national and regional through the use of communication and information technology.
    3. Stimulate trade in agricultural products among Africans in order to improve their living conditions
    4. Establish a model of information sharing on the value chain of food crops, as well as provide a database of the national agrarian sector
    5. Provide “omnichannel retailing”
