Frankfurt Airport Launches Europe’s Largest Private 5G Network with NTT DATA and Nokia

Frankfurt Airport Launches Europe’s Largest Private 5G Network with NTT DATA and Nokia
Winner – Private Network Excellence in Airports: NTT DATA, in partnership with Fraport AG, designed and implemented a large-scale private 5G network covering more than 20 km² at Frankfurt Airport. The 5G campus network provides secure, low-latency connectivity across the apron and perimeter where Wi-Fi is limited, enabling real-time data transfer, autonomous and remote operations, and a foundation for future airport digitalization. Nokia supported with private 5G RAN alongside NTT DATA’s architecture, deployment, and integration services.

Private Network for Airports, Ports & Automotive

Private Network for Airports, Ports & Automotive
Welcome to the TeckNexus Private Networks: Airports, Ports & Automotive Edition. Across transportation ecosystems, connectivity has shifted from an enabler to a strategic foundation. In airports, ports, and automotive environments, private LTE, 5G, and CBRS networks are delivering deterministic performance, real-time visibility, and secure operations—driving measurable gains in efficiency, safety, and resilience.

This edition showcases real-world deployments alongside exclusive insights from industry leaders shaping the future of mobility infrastructure. We also celebrate the 2025 TeckNexus Private Networks Award winners, recognizing organizations and partners setting new benchmarks for innovation and execution.

Through customer stories, executive interviews, and partner perspectives, the magazine highlights the power of ecosystem collaboration and introduces the Smart Airport and Smart Port Connectivity Blueprints—practical frameworks drawn from global deployments.

The message is clear: enterprises don’t invest in private networks for technology alone—they invest for outcomes.
