Two-node O-Cloud, one O-RU, fronthaul and synchronization fabric, MX-PDK software license, and one year of updates and support

MX-PDK O-RAN gives telecom R&D and engineering teams a complete, licensed, and validated multi-vendor end-to-end 5G O-RAN testbed with O-RAN 7.2 fronthaul. It combines cloud-native infrastructure, commercial radio hardware, programmable RAN control, automation, and observability in one reproducible environment.

It is an industry-grade, O-RAN-compliant platform supporting R1, A1, E2, O1, and O-RAN Open Fronthaul 7.2 interfaces. It comes with a two-node O-Cloud, an industrial O-RU, PTP-synchronized fronthaul, five commercial 5G UE modules, near-RT and non-RT RICs, xApp and rApp DevKits, reusable catalogs, and agentic observability. Adopted by 100+ telecom and research teams worldwide, MX-PDK O-RAN is your all-in-one 5G/6G O-RAN Platform & DevKit for development, integration, validation, PoCs, and field trials.

What makes MX-PDK O-RAN different

1. O-RAN: Use the SMO/OAM, near-RT RIC, non-RT RIC, xApp SDK, rApp SDK, and CDK, with support for E2, A1, O1, and R1.
2. End-to-end: Combine OpenAirInterface, OCUDU, Open5GS, O-RAN radio hardware, commercial UEs, and reusable BubbleRAN blueprints in a common environment.
3. Experiment: Run terrestrial and supported non-terrestrial experimentation scenarios.
4. Observe: Use the included agentic observability capabilities to investigate network state, cluster health, logs, and metrics through natural-language queries.
5. Scale: Reuse your blueprints, xApps, rApps, and agents as your needs evolve.

What can you do with MX-PDK O-RAN?

1. Develop and validate xApps and rApps for RAN control, automation, performance management, and optimization.
2. Test multi-vendor O-RAN interoperability across the O-Cloud, O-CU/O-DU, O-RU, RIC, SMO/OAM, and commercial UE domains.
3. Experiment with advanced 5G/6G use cases, including slicing, mobility, QoS/QoE optimization, SLA assurance, ISAC, sensing, localization, V2X, IoT, drones, and robotics.
4. Run TN and supported NTN experiments using repeatable network blueprints and common operational workflows.
5. Build PoCs and prototypes for field validation on a platform designed to carry the same software artifacts into larger MX-PDK deployments.

What arrives in the box?

MX-PDK O-RAN hardware

1. 2x pre-installed O-Cloud workstation nodes, running the BubbleRAN O-Cloud with optimized Kubernetes, device discovery, Cilium networking, Multus, and eBPF-based observability.
2. 1x industrial O-RAN 7.2 Radio Unit, with LITEON FlexFi as the default indoor O-RU and Benetel RAN550 available as an alternative, supporting up to 100 MHz of bandwidth and 4x4 MIMO in FR1.
3. 1x FibroLAN µFalcon-RX fronthaul and synchronization switch, with an IEEE 1588v2 PTP grandmaster, GPS and local synchronization, PTP switching, QoS, and VLAN support.
4. 5x Quectel RM500Q 5G Release 16 modules with SIM cards, providing a commercial multi-UE fleet for traffic generation, scheduling, load testing, mobility experiments, and per-UE measurements.
5. Required accessories, including antennas, RF, Ethernet, and SFP cables, power supplies, adapters, and connectivity accessories.

The hardware can be extended with additional O-Cloud nodes, indoor or outdoor O-RUs, SDRs such as USRP B2xx/N3xx, UEs and CPEs, GPUs, and multi-cell or multi-site configurations.

MX-PDK O-RAN software

MX-PDK O-RAN support and software updates

The MX-PDK software license includes one year of software updates and technical support. Hardware, radio, and support scope can be extended and configured to your project requirements.

Your day-one blueprint

MX-PDK O-RAN ships pre-installed, pre-configured, and validated with deployment blueprints ranging from end-to-end 5G SA emulation to operational over-the-air O-RAN deployments. The default blueprint brings up a standards-compliant 5G SA O-RAN 7.2 split using the two-node O-Cloud, O-CU/O-DU, synchronized fronthaul, industrial O-RU, near-RT RIC, xApp, 5G core, and commercial UEs.

bash$ git clone https://github.com/bubbleran/blueprints && cd blueprints
bash$ brc install network network/OAI/liteon/04-liteon-cu-du-oran-xapp.yaml
bash$ brc install terminal network/Terminals/terminal_quectel.yaml
bash$ brc install aifabric observability.yaml   # deploy the observability agents
bash$ brc observe network                      # watch the E2 nodes register with the RIC
bash$ brc extract dataset kpm                  # export per-UE over-the-air measurements

Or start from any blueprint in the TelcoFabric portal and deploy it from the dashboard or the command line.

The non-RT RIC and rApp capabilities are also included in MX-PDK O-RAN and can be enabled in the relevant blueprints for A1/R1 experimentation, policy workflows, intent-driven automation, and rApp development.

MX-UI gives you an immediate view of your O-RAN environment, including cluster health, active networks, radio and terminal state, RIC components, workloads, and observability data in one place.

The included Observability Blueprint adds agentic investigation on top of the platform data. It is deployed as an AIFabric resource composed of agents, model endpoints, and MCP servers declared in YAML. The Observability Planner delegates queries to specialized cluster, logs, and metrics agents, with the live network remaining the source of truth.

Ask questions such as “Why did throughput drop?” and use the agent workflow to correlate KPM counters, logs, alerts, and infrastructure metrics. This gives R&D teams a faster path from network symptoms to evidence-based investigation, while keeping the underlying measurements accessible for direct inspection and reproducible analysis.

From O-RAN to AI-RAN

Scale the same software foundation as your experiments move from single-cell O-RAN validation to multi-cell AI-RAN and campus-scale infrastructure.
