OCUDU Ecosystem Developer Summit

As OCUDU matures into a carrier-grade open-source 5G stack, operators and integrators need vendor-neutral, reproducible evidence of how O-RU hardware behaves in a real OCUDU deployment—not just vendor-reported claims.

ITRI Lab, an OCUDU Lab partner in the APAC region, is building a neutral validation platform that benchmarks multiple RU architectures on OCUDU, using a methodology covering Open Fronthaul interoperability, throughput/latency KPIs, multi-UE scenarios, and long-duration testing—referenced where applicable against TIP baseline configurations.

This session covers the platform and methodology, selected multi-vendor observations, and a deep-dive validation case: an 8T8R Category B O-RU from LIONS Technology integrated with OCUDU, including Open Fronthaul behavior and beamforming performance. This APAC lab also validates contributions from Taiwan's broader Open RAN ecosystem—LIONS extending into CBRS-compliant PAL/GAA deployments, and G-Reigns on CU/DU integration—into OCUDU, with further cases to follow.

Attendees leave with a reusable framework for OCUDU RU validation, a reference against common baselines, and concrete multi-vendor benchmark results on OCUDU.
