What is private 5G network and its application in India?

 

Intended for non-public use, private 5G network is the next big thing in digital transformation for enterprises, industries and governments around the world.  

It is essentially a local area network that uses 3GPP-based network spectrum, to create unified connectivity and a secure means of communication within a specific area.  

Private 5G network is on the cusp of taking off around the world. Last year, Germany issued 5G private licenses to over 33 companies — for companies like BASF, BMW, Bosch, Lufthansa, Siemens, Volkswagen etc — to run exclusive networks.

France, the UK, the US and Australia are also putting in place policies to roll out private 5G networks.

Back home, Indian IT majors are planning to deploy private 5G test beds spread over their several campuses across the country.

Tata Consultancy Services, engineering services provider L&T Technology Services and Tech Mahindra are reportedly planning to adopt private 5G networks.

A private 5G network enables enterprises to dedicate bandwidth for ultra-reliable low-latency use cases such as robotics and industrial IoT, with control over data, security and networks. It can also be tailored for specific industry and business requirements.
