eCPRI O-RU Split 7.2
Overview
Comcores eCPRI core is a highly scalable and silicon agnostic implementation of the eCPRI standard targeting any ASIC, FPGA or ASSP technologies. The eCPRI implementation builds on long-time experience designing CPRI and Radio-Over-Ethernet solutions for fronthaul and delivers a flexible engine that is prepared for tight integration with software applications.
The solution is prepared to support the novel O-RAN IF and may optionally be used in tandem with Comcores’ Lower PHY IP.
The IP is designed to meet or exceed the requirements of radio systems, base band systems, fronthaul switches or advanced test systems.
The speed optimized core can handle any solutions reaching from the “small footprint” to the most complex applications running 25 Gbps. The IP can dynamically be configured to handle wireless multimode radio systems enabling high-performance throughputs required by 4G and 5G wireless solutions. With the availability of demo platforms, Comcores offers a fast track approach to eCPRI bring-up.
