RANsemi Limited has collaborated with TechPhosis Private Limited, an Indian 5G central unit (CU)/distributed unit (DU) stack solution providers and open radio access network (O-RAN) integration specialists, to deliver an integrated small cell (ISC) starter kit. The partnership reflects the shared ambition of both companies to expand cross-border cooperation in the development of next-generation mobile infrastructure.

Commenting on the collaboraton, co-founder and chief operating officer, TechPhosis, said, “Our collaboration with RANsemi brings together cutting-edge hardware innovation from the UK and advanced RAN software integration expertise from India. Together, we are enabling a fast-track route for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to accelerate integrated small-cell development and strengthen the O-RAN ecosystem. This partnership delivers a carrier-grade 5G solution built on a low-power consumption system-on-chip (SoC), offering an ultra-cost-optimised design with significantly reduced time-to-market.”

Meanwhile, chief executive officer, RANsemi, said, “RANsemi and TechPhosis are aligned in enabling new entrants and innovators to move faster in the evolution of small cell and O-RAN technologies. By bringing together RANsemi’s PHY with TechPhosis’ Layer 2/3 expertise, we are delivering a foundation that supports experimentation, rapid prototyping and product realisation.”

The partnership brings together RANsemi’s software-defined baseband PHY with TechPhosis’ Layer 2/3 software stack to create a flexible and powerful development platform for 5G integrated small cell innovation. Designed to accelerate design and integration cycles for OEMs, system integrators, and research partners, the ISC Starter Kit will provide a practical foundation for exploring new performance, interoperability, and deployment models for 5G small cells.
