How to Accelerate Factory Digitalization with Private 4G/5G

August 8, 2023

In today’s competitive manufacturing environment, businesses need to find ways to improve efficiency, productivity, and safety. One way to do this is to deploy a private 4G/5G network.

A private 4G/5G network is a dedicated wireless network that is designed for a specific organization. This type of network offers a number of benefits for manufacturers, including:

Increased reliability and security
Reduced latency and jitter
Increased bandwidth
Improved scalability

These benefits can help manufacturers to improve their factory operations in a number of ways. For example, a private 4G/5G network can be used to:

Connect and control robots and other automated equipment
Collect and analyze data from sensors
Provide real-time video surveillance
Deliver mission-critical applications

Nokia is a leading provider of private 4G/5G networks. Together, Vision Technologies and Nokia are partnering to offer solutions for manufacturing customers with everything you need to deploy a private 4G/5G network, including:

Network planning and design
Equipment installation and commissioning
Network management and support

“The partnership between Vision and Nokia has benefited our customers that are frustrated with WiFi coverage limitations, throughput, and latency,” added Vision Technologies Vice President of Mobility Mike Foss. “Having a “private” wireless network that is not connected to the public cellular and general WiFi networks helps ensure connectivity and compliance to advanced system requirements, as well as improved latency. Nokia, as a company, has been an excellent example of a true partnership with Vision; approaching each and every opportunity with an open mind and solid solution to our customer’s problems. Vision, as a complete systems integrator, our varied business unit’s capabilities, as well as our deep rooted history in structured cabling, has allowed us to offer a robust solution set to our customers, which now includes the Nokia Private LTE/5G suite of products and services.”
