Private 5G Networks / 5G Non-Public Networks (NPNs)

Description

Recent years have seen a lot of increase in the adoption of private 5G networks, regulators are allocating more and more spectrum to the enterprises so that they can build their own private 5G networks. The fact that these networks they do not share traffic with public networks is a game changer for enterprises, as they can leverage the reliability, high-speed connectivity, low latency, security and power efficiency of 5G. This opens up new IoT possibilities and generates new revenue streams. A private 5G network can be thought of as a wireless local area network (LAN) that uses 5G-enabled technologies to create a network with dedicated bandwidth and infrastructure that meets a company's specific connectivity needs.

Private 5G networks can also be integrated with Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) for use in industry 4.0. So, future factories will be without cables and wires but can fulfill all requirements of time sensitive applications used in automation and control.
