Microamp is proud to announce its access to Small Cell Forum, a worldwide organization that pushes forward the acceleration of small cell adoption, in order to change the shape of mobile networks and maximize the potential of mobile services.
On 26 July 2022, Microamp officially became a member of the Small Cell Forum, joining global communication leaders in the common effort to bring a new generation of industrial networks closer to businesses worldwide.
Small Cell Forum's goal is to establish ‘industry standard’ offerings that address the operational and commercial requirements of enterprise and industry, supporting the development of agile, low-cost mobile infrastructure that meets the needs of all deployers, including MNOs, neutral hosts, private network operators, and systems integrators.
We are really delighted that Microamp has joined SCF at a very busy and exciting time for the Forum. We look forward to the Microamp team getting involved in our various work item areas, especially around Open RAN solutions, and bringing their expertise to our programme. SCF has an active work plan covering many key industry areas, including FAPI/nFAPI specifications & Transport solutions for Open RAN, neutral host requirements, private network blueprints, and emerging areas such as CV2X & 6G, so there is a lot to get involved in as well as participate in our calendar of global events and meetings.

Within the organization, Microamp will focus on promoting and developing 5G mmWave-based industrial networks with a special focus on the oil & gas and energy industry.
mmWave technology and openRAN are the future of industrial connectivity. We are excited to see these technology standards being recognized by industry-leading organizations, such as SCF. For Microamp, it is yet another proof that mmWave-based solutions can and will greatly impact the way companies are building their networks. We are dedicated to bringing out technological expertise to the table, pushing forward the new standards of building efficient, low-cost networks for industries worldwide.”
