Industrial IoT (IIoT) Networks

In the factory of the future advancement in robotics, materials, and production techniques join forces with artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), Augmented Reality (AR) and digital twins to make flexibility and customization the new competitive edge.

Smart Manufacturing is becoming a reality with enterprises implementing Industry 4.0 worldwide, where every object in the factory communicates with others. Decisions and directions for assembly are made at the product level and adapted to current conditions.
Such flexibility requires high-performance wireless communications between machines, people, and even the facilities themselves.

Private Networks for Industrial IoT

Industrial IoT (IIoT) requires an industrial-grade fully managed network to support it. Till recently, most network solutions (whether Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or NB IoT, or even LTE private networks) did not provide the required capacity, coverage, control, and flexibility. 5G and in particular Private 5G is the first network standard to specifically acknowledge and address new network uses such as critical communications, real-time data analysis, and mass simultaneous IoT connections.

5G also incorporates recent networking revolutions such as NFV (Network functions Virtualization) and SDN (Software Defined Networks), making it much more familiar and similar to cloud-based IT services.

Private 5G Mobile Networks – the perfect fit for Industry 4.0

Private 5G networks are uniquely suited to the needs of Industry 4.0. Following are some of the benefits they offer:

  • Guaranteed Performance
  • Security
  • Mobility
  • Device density
  • Capacity
  • Speed
  • Reliability
  • Application separation (Service Slicing)

Full control with dedicated private spectrum

Most industrialized nation Governments have already assigned Spectrum and bands for private ownership, paving the way for industrial giants and businesses to build and run their own private networks. Industry IT managers are able to set up and manage private 5G networks without relying on traditional operators and tailor them to their industrial application needs. All data is contained in a separate, private network, without having to depend on public network congestion. Factory IT and security managers define and configure their own cellular networks’ security policies without depending on external providers.
