Hitachi Rail’s Hagerstown factory is now powered by a secure Private 5G Network, thanks to GlobalLogic and Ericsson. This digital transformation enables smart manufacturing capabilities such as predictive maintenance, digital twins, AI-driven inspections, and real-time automation—positioning the plant as a benchmark for Industry 4.0 in North America.
Private 5G Networks are enterprise-controlled wireless systems offering secure, reliable, and high-performance connectivity. Learn what Private 5G Networks are, how they compare to Wi-Fi and public 5G, and how industries like manufacturing, logistics, and healthcare use them to power automation, IoT, and real-time data applications.
The Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI), representing Reliance Jio, Bharti Airtel, and Vodafone Idea, is pushing back against direct 5G spectrum allocation for enterprises. COAI argues that India’s urban coverage, revenue priorities, and national security risks make an operator-led model via spectrum leasing or network slicing, more viable. The Department of Telecommunications is reviewing TRAI’s recommendation, with the decision set to shape India’s private 5G market for years.
The Istanbul Expo Center (IFM) has become Türkiye’s first venue to deploy an indoor 5G Private Network, turning its 96,000 m² exhibition space into a next-gen smart venue for digital trade fairs. The Opticoms and ADSYS project integrates IoT, edge computing, and network slicing to support real-time testing, secure enterprise connectivity, and immersive AR/VR showcases.
Sedna Africa and Cornelder de Moçambique are deploying a private LTE/5G network at Beira Port to enhance safety, operational efficiency, and support Industry 4.0 initiatives. The network enables real-time tracking, IoT-based safety systems, and predictive maintenance as Mozambique invests $290M to expand port capacity.
India’s Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has relaunched its plan to directly allocate spectrum for private 5G networks. The new demand study invites large enterprises and system integrators to signal interest in dedicated spectrum for captive 5G setups. If approved, this policy could enable Indian industries to run secure, high-speed networks without fully relying on telecom operators.
ZTE and e& UAE have completed a successful Private 5G Network trial, showcasing high uplink speeds, multi-band adaptability, and ZTE’s NodeEngine Edge Computing platform. This trial enables rapid deployment, stronger enterprise connectivity, and practical use cases for smart industries, aligning with the UAE’s goal of becoming a digital innovation leader.
Batelco by Beyon and Nokia are partnering to launch Bahrain’s first private 5G network at Aluminum Bahrain (Alba). The network will drive smart manufacturing through real-time monitoring, automation, and AI-driven analytics—paving the way for Alba’s digital transformation and advancing Bahrain’s Industry 4.0 strategy.
