As a one-stop shop of uniquely vetted solutions, the Mosaic Alliance will save network operators the time and resources required to assess and substantiate vendors and offerings best suited for their open network demands, while reducing introduction risks posed to the operator’s business.
Mosaic Alliance members will have access ADTRAN expertise and to one another for information exchange as well as mutual assistance for the development of new open SD-Access projects.

The Mosaic Alliance offers two levels of engagement: Integration Members and Collaboration Members.
