首席执行官Pardeep Kohli表示，Mavenir已经在RAN开发上投入了5亿美元，预计2023年将是机会之年
Mavenir表示，大多数商用5G网络依赖于4G核心网络，这就是为什么5G尚未以可持续和有意义的方式实现新服务、用例和提高每用户平均收入(ARPU)的承诺。
“我们已经在RAN开发上投入了近5亿美元，并将继续追加投资。我们在2022年得到了投资者的大力支持，并将继续得到所需的支持。”
这位高管表示，该公司是第三大非中国公司，拥有完整的端到端移动网络软件，包括无线电、基带、分组核心、语音和消息应用程序。
2022年10月，Mavenir完成了1.55亿美元的融资，寻求将其战略加倍，成为棕地的端到端系统集成商(SI)开跑部署。此前，该公司已于2021年8月完成了9500万美元的融资。
根据移动世界直播的报告，该公司寻求在2023年产生超过10亿美元的收入，高于2021年的6.36亿美元。
Kohli表示，几个国家的运营商正在努力为积极的5G推广建立商业案例，并声称云原生灵活性是第五代网络成功的基础。
“但目前部署的5G网络无法提供与4G截然不同的体验，更不用说未来的元宇宙应用或其他尚未设想的高级用例了。这只是将流量从4G迁移到5G，收入更少，但现在运营成本增加了。”

Icra:为了推动“有意义的”5G推出，基站光纤需要30万亿卢比的资本支出
该公司表示，在印度全面部署5G将需要网络的密集化，反过来，通过光纤对回程基础设施进行大规模投资，因为目前只有35%的电信塔进行了光纤化。
“新的商业模式尚未实现，主要是因为大多数网络还不具备云原生独立(SA) 5G的全部功能。他们没有看到额外的收入潜力。只有积极的5G部署和摆脱供应商锁定的单一网络才能降低资本支出和运营成本。创新和开放竞争将使这成为可能。”
他补充说，固定无线接入是唯一能带来新收入的5G应用，并指出，电信公司要想在这项业务上取得成功，网络成本必须下降。
在第一季度至第三季度期间，收入排名前4的Open RAN供应商包括三星根据Dell 'Oro集团，富士通、NEC和Mavenir。
然而，该研究公司警告说，到目前为止，Open RAN的崛起对更广泛的RAN市场(包括专有和开放RAN)的影响有限。“数据显示，排名前5位的RAN供应商(华为从2021年第一季度至第三季度，爱立信、诺基亚、中兴和三星等公司的销量下降了不到一个百分点。”

\u201cWe have spent close to $500 million in RAN development, and will continue additional investments. We got good support from our investors in 2022 and continue to get the needed support,\u201d Kohli said in a Linkedin post.
The top executive said that the company is the third-largest non-Chinese company with complete software for end-to-end mobile networks that include radio, baseband, packet core, voice, and messaging applications.

In October 2022, Mavenir closed a $155 million funding round as it seeks to double down on its strategy to become an end-to-end systems integrator (SI) for brownfield Open RAN<\/a> deployments. This followed a $95 million funding round that it had closed in August 2021.
The company seeks to generate revenue of more than $1 billion in 2023, up from $636 million in 2021, as per a Mobile World Live report.
Kohli said that operators in several countries are struggling to build business case for aggressive 5G roll outs, claiming that cloud-native flexibility is fundamental to the success of fifth-generation networks.
\u201cBut 5G networks, as deployed today, cannot deliver experiences that are very different from 4G, let alone future metaverse applications or other advanced use cases not yet conceived. It is simply a migration of traffic from 4G to 5G with less and at best same revenue but now additional Opex cost,\u201d Kohli said.
According to Mavenir, most commercial 5G networks rely on 4G core network which is why 5G is yet to deliver on the promise for new services, use cases, and an uplift in the average revenue per user (ARPU) in a sustainable and meaningful manner.
