By offering, the services segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
The services segment is expected to hold a higher growth rate in the open RAN market due to several compelling factors. There has been an increase in demand for network planning & optimization, deployment and integration, support and maintenance services by companies adopting open RAN solutions as these services assist them in facilitating deployment and optimization of these solutions. The growing emphasis on virtualization and cloud-native architectures within the telecom industry is expected to fuel demand for services related to virtualized network functions and cloud integration.
Greenfield is expected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period. In the open RAN market, greenfield deployments provide unmatched flexibility, the potential for innovation, and cost savings to operators. Such deployments enable the selection of best-in-class vendors for diverse network components such as the Radio Unit (RU), Distributed Unit (DU), and Central Unit (CU) from an array of suppliers, avoiding the limitations imposed by single vendor proprietary systems. The open vendor setup boosts innovation and quickly brings new features and technologies allowing new vendors to join. Despite these obstacles, greenfield deployments represent a substantial opportunity for operators to construct adaptable, future-oriented networks that leverage the competitive and innovative advantages of the open RAN market.
North America is estimated to have the second-largest market size during the forecast period.
North America's high-speed connectivity, coverage, and modern telecom ecosystem support the adoption and integration of Open RAN systems. Government programs foster innovation and competitiveness in the telecom industry. Furthermore, a number of top companies are actively funding R&D in North America to enhance the functionality and scalability of Open RAN systems. The adoption is further boosted by the rollout of 5G networks across the area which is motivated by growing consumer demand for high-speed data services and emerging applications.
