The Open vRAN market in Australia is expected to grow at a CAGR of 24.6% from 2024 to 2030, driven by the country’s need for flexible, cost-efficient network expansion across vast geographies. Operators are exploring Open vRAN to overcome the logistical and economic challenges of deploying traditional RAN systems in rural and remote regions. A major driver is Australia’s focus on improving mobile coverage and spectrum efficiency through disaggregated and virtualized network functions. Nonetheless, a key restraint is the relatively slower pace of Open vRAN standardization among local vendors and limited domestic ecosystem maturity. Trends show a gradual shift toward hybrid RAN architectures and increased partnerships with global technology vendors and hyperscalers to fast-track innovation. Regulatory backing for 5G expansion and spectrum liberalization is creating opportunities for Open vRAN solutions, especially in enterprise and government-backed infrastructure projects. With growing interest in private 5G for mining, defense, and agriculture, Open vRAN adoption is expected to gain significant traction, positioning Australia as a strategic regional adopter of open and virtualized network infrastructure.
