Private LTE 5G adoption to transformation in 2021

Industrial enterprises are looking to adopt open and standards-based wireless technologies as a newfound dependence on wireless connectivity to digitize workflows, operational efficiency, and production agility escalates. These enterprises, which are often comprised of large vibrant ecosystems of vendors and software providers, are seeking one thing - enterprise mobility and digital transformation that can be managed at scale.

Private LTE 5G adoption to transformation in 2021

With the commercial availability of OnGo in 2020, dedicated enterprise wireless networks have never been more scalable and affordable than they will be in 2021. The convergence of privately owned and managed LTE/5G networks is popping up in many industrial market segments, including manufacturing, oil & gas, mining, and automotive, all delivering secure broadband low-latency foundational LTE and 5G wireless coverage. Using a shared spectrum, such as OnGo, these types of initiatives will be realized in 2021 at a fraction of the cost and time of acquiring a licensed spectrum. OnGo will be the key to many industrial organization’s Enterprise Private Wireless strategy as foundational coverage, much as Ethernet has been for many years, yet far more agile to the fast-moving needs of production, chemical plants, oil & gas production, utilities, etc.
