Open projects, open methods and open templates this community builds on, with the licence of every source carried through.

Reference design, drawn to scale · drag to turn

1. Telecom · Open

   Towers that compute, sense and connect

   AI-RAN and edge compute at the tower, private 5G for enterprises, timing and spectrum monitoring, satellite backhaul and ground segment, and towers that host observing instruments as a second tenant. Needs: spectrum occupancy and interference, timing accuracy, site power and cooling, backhaul for remote sites and tower capacity for hosted instruments.

2. Open · Connectivity

   Open with Connectivity

   Band tables and sources, Country guides and Coverage methods: free to use and build on. The enterprise layer adds private Wireless as a Service, AI-RAN deployment and Spectrum route support, delivered under contract by Nexus Observatory Inc. Open methods let anyone check how a product was made.

3. Open · Edge compute & AI

   Open with Edge compute & AI

   Class assumptions and Power and thermal methods: free to use and build on. The enterprise layer adds MEC deployment and Edge AI sites, delivered under contract by Nexus Observatory Inc. Open methods let anyone check how a product was made.

4. Open · Field services

   Open with Field services

   Guides, Templates and Lifecycle: free to use and build on. The enterprise layer adds eight services and Government buyers, delivered under contract by Nexus Observatory Inc. Open methods let anyone check how a product was made. Every reading and every change leaves a record that can be checked later.

5. Open · Hardware & power

   Open with Hardware & power

   Device classes with 3D models and Reference designs (licence pending): free to use and build on. The enterprise layer adds kit supply, Bills of materials and deployment plans and OEM co-engineering, delivered under contract by Nexus Observatory Inc. Open methods let anyone check how a product was made.

6. Open · Sensors & instruments

   Open with Sensors & instruments

   Metadata and quality rules and Open networks on the grid: free to use and build on. The enterprise layer adds sensing as a Service, Calibration programmes and Qualification, delivered under contract by Nexus Observatory Inc. Open methods let anyone check how a product was made.

7. Trust

   Every node proves what it is

   A node joins only after its hardware root of trust answers an attestation challenge. Keys stay in secure hardware, software arrives signed, and every reading carries a signature, so its origin can be checked by anyone downstream without asking us.

8. Time and place

   Every reading carries when and where

   Readings are stamped against a disciplined clock, from satellite time or a PTP grandmaster, together with the station position and its siting record. When time or position is degraded, the record says so instead of hiding it, and every analyst downstream sees the same warning.

9. How it scales

   One base unit, repeated

   A programme starts with one base node and the instruments it reads. A station adds power and radio, a site adds a relay, a fleet repeats the proven site across many places, and a network federates fleets through edge and core. Capacity grows by adding units, never by replacing what works.

10. Updates

    Updates in rings, with rollback

    Software and configuration reach the fleet in rings: a canary site first, then a few, then all, each ring gated on health and data completeness. A failed gate stops the wave and returns each node to its last good release, without a site visit.

11. Operations

    Every node watched, every incident closed

    The operations console shows every node with its state, its plan and its evidence. Alerts arrive with their data and a runbook; acknowledging one opens a work order, and an incident closes only when the cause is recorded and the fix verified.

12. What you get

    AI-RAN and multi-access edge deployment

    RAN and AI workloads on shared accelerated compute at the cell site or edge, integrated with O-RAN interfaces. Delivered as professional services and managed service, for carriers, neutral hosts, large enterprises. Scale: Carrier-scale rollouts. Service levels are written as numbers you can measure on your own dashboard.

13. Next step

    Plan a telecom deployment

    Tell us the sites, the measurements and the people who will use them. We reply with a design and a scope for telecom. An engineer replies with a survey proposal and a scope, and the plan grows from one site to the network you need, at your pace.
