$Nokia Oyj(NOK)$ Nokia's AI-RAN strategy requires GPU-powered edge servers at cell sites. NVIDIA supplies the GPUs and AI software, while Nokia provides the radios, AI-RAN software, orchestration, optical networking, and integration. Lenovo already partners with Nokia on AI infrastructure and builds enterprise servers designed for NVIDIA GPUs. Nokia and Lenovo also recently signed a patent cross-license agreement. While Nokia hasn't explicitly stated the Lenovo deal is for AI-RAN, the pieces fit: a future deployment could use Lenovo servers containing NVIDIA GPUs running Nokia's AI-RAN platform. If operators adopt AI-RAN, they may purchase radios, GPU servers, optical transport, software, and services as a bundled solution. Nothing confirms Lenovo as the preferred hardware vendor yet, but it's a logical possibility given the existing partnerships and could become a significant part of Nokia's AI ecosystem.
