Time Synchronization for O-RAN Networks Demo - EANTC Multi-Vendor Interop Showcase at MPLS SDN 2024

Nine leading vendors participated in the interoperability demonstration of time synchronization for Open RAN Fronthaul: Arista, Calnex, Ciena, Cisco, Ericsson, Huawei, Juniper, Keysight, and Microchip.
For the first time, these vendors demonstrated new solutions for passive monitoring of synchronization quality, which enables operators to keep network-wide control of the time synchronization without requiring extra probes. Additionally, the interworking of synchronization profiles was focused. More details of the interworking aspects are shown in a separate video.
The speakers in this session include:
Dennis Hagarty, Cisco
Bjørnar Forthun, Juniper
Neil Jackson, Calnex
