The One Open WiMAX initiative has accelerated the availability of WiMAX
Forum-compliant infrastructure equipment; ensuring service providers
have the option to combine best-of-breed equipment to build their
networks. WiChorus is making the goal of an open ecosystem a reality
through its participation in the WiMAX Forum and its industry-leading
One Open WiMAX initiative. The goal of this initiative is to ensure
fully open WiMAX standards, including the adoption of a single open R6
interface, and to demonstrate multi-vendor interoperability across the
entire mobile ecosystem. With a standard, open R6 interface, mobile
operators have the flexibility to choose from a large ecosystem of
best-of-breed equipment, including base stations and ASN gateways.
