# Hardware Requirements

## Integrated O-RAN Solution

O-RAN system:
- 1 computer with 10 Gbps NIC
- 1 SDR (X or N for 5G)

Each UE:
- 1 computer with 10 Gbps NIC
- 1 SDR (X or N for 5G)
  e.g. X310 or N310 USRP

# Software Requirements

## OS and Packages
- Operating System: Ubuntu 20.04
- Major Packages: Docke, Kubernetes, Helm

**Note:** If you use a virtual machine to deploy OAIC, I highly recommend configuring the VM to use a **Bridged Adapter** instead of NAT and setting a static IP for the VM, as we will use the IP address for communication.
