Which Private Network Deployment Architecture Is Right for You?

You have decided a private network is the right path. Now determine the deployment architecture — who owns what, where your data sits, how operations are structured, and how to engage vendors in the right sequence.

Start here first: This tool determines how to deploy your private network — not which technology to use. If you have not yet decided between private LTE, 5G, satellite, or hybrid connectivity, complete the Private Network Technology Selector first, then return here.

Section 0 of 4 · Context
Question 1 of 15
What best describes your deployment scenario?
Question 2 of 15
What stage are you at in your private network journey?
Section 1 of 4 · Data & Sovereignty
Question 3 of 15
Where must your operational data be processed and stored?
This is the single most influential factor in your architecture decision.
Question 4 of 15
What is your regulatory and compliance context?
Question 5 of 15
How important is independence from a mobile operator?
This is the fundamental split between standalone and operator-integrated architectures.
Section 2 of 4 · Operational Capability & Commercial Model
Question 6 of 15
What internal technical capability do you have to operate the network?
Be honest here — this single question prevents the most common and expensive architecture mismatch.
Question 7 of 15
How do you prefer to structure the commercial and ownership model?
Question 8 of 15
What is your tolerance for vendor dependency and lock-in?
Section 3 of 4 · Technical Requirements
Question 9 of 15
Where does your application processing need to happen?
This determines where data traffic is anchored — the single most influential technical factor in your architecture.
Question 10 of 15
What is your spectrum and radio infrastructure position?
Question 11 of 15
How complex is your existing infrastructure integration?
Question 12 of 15
Do you require network slicing or guaranteed traffic separation between applications?
Section 4 of 4 · Scale & Timeline
Question 13 of 15
How many sites does this architecture need to cover?
Question 14 of 15
Do different sites have materially different connectivity requirements?
Question 15 of 15
What is your target operational timeline?

Whitepaper
This whitepaper explains how utilities can use secure AI-enabled private mobile networks to modernize operations, support distributed intelligence, improve resilience, and strengthen cybersecurity across critical infrastructure. It covers AI applications, private network advantages, zero trust principles, multilayered security architecture, and governance considerations for AI-ready utility environments....
Whitepaper
Non-terrestrial networks are rapidly evolving from experimental satellite systems into an increasingly important part of the global 5G connectivity landscape. This eBook, developed by Radisys in collaboration with TeckNexus, explores how 3GPP standardization, satellite architecture innovation, and software-driven network design are reshaping NTN deployment models. It examines the transition from...
Whitepaper
Private cellular networks are transforming industrial operations, but securing private 5G, LTE, and CBRS infrastructure requires more than legacy IT/OT tools. This whitepaper by TeckNexus and sponsored by OneLayer outlines a 4-pillar framework to protect critical systems, offering clear guidance for evaluating security vendors, deploying zero trust, and integrating IT,...
