How to deploy and scale Private Wireless 5G Networks

Digital transformation is based in part on the notion that by combining data – from customers, suppliers, machines and/or sensors – with machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI), an enterprise can fundamentally improve its operations. Private cellular networks are key to this process because they provide value that that cannot be as easily found or replicated with other network solutions. Moreover, private cellular networks are deployable today built entirely on commercial off the shelf (COTS) hardware. iGR has forecasted the total five-year spending (2021 – 2026) on private Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) network build, operations, systems/network integration and applications in 12 different U.S. industry vertical to total $22.5 billion. In a very real sense, it is the IT equipment vendors who are driving the adoption of private cellular networks.
