The Telco Project is open to the public and we welcome anyone who is interested to become involved.
This Project is open to the public and we welcome all those who would like to be involved.


The Telecom Industry would like to apply the Open Compute Project (OCP) model to create Telecom optimized hardware. Telecommunication Service providers are seeking more than simply datacenter solutions, they are looking for solutions that encompass the entire Telco service delivery from the Datacenter to the Network edge.
There is an industry desire to apply the open hardware OCP model to the creation of open telecom optimized hardware. The OCP Telco Project enlists participants from Communication Service Provider (CSP) and carriers as well as software, board, sub systems, and semiconductor suppliers who are seeking to use open designs and data center infrastructure to deliver Telecom services.


The OCP Telco Project will enable participants from telecom companies and carriers as well as subsystems, software, board, and semiconductor suppliers to transition from existing proprietary solutions to OCP solutions which provide open systems free of proprietary, single supplier lock-in.
As technologists across industries participate in this community, we are creating and refining OCP design specifications, making it possible for more companies to transition from their existing proprietary solutions to Open Compute Project (OCP) solutions gear, and interoperable, multi-vendor supplier support.
 
As telecom services move to the cloud, handle more data, and bring connectivity to the world, it must be done in an efficient, economical, and sustainable way. The solution designs must be created in an open, transparent and collaborative environment to create an evolving set of commoditized products optimized to meet telecom environments, including edge specific deployment requirements.
 
In response to Telecommunications Service Providers and carriers needs, the global hardware and software suppliers are working together to create products and solutions that can provide innovations to meet new and challenging requirements.
