Expanding 5G NR to industrial IoT.

The next industrial revolution is upon us, and the ability to deliver local and customized services with secure and reliable wireless connectivity is essential to this transformation. At Qualcomm, we are optimizing LTE today and inventing new 5G NR technologies to deliver high-performance, private industrial networks that will power this revolution.

Private industrial networks offer key benefits for industrial IoT.

Dedicated equipment for private industrial networks can provide optimized and secure services to meet the specific needs of a local facility, such as a manufacturing plant.

Optimized

Network can be tailored for specific industrial applications (e.g., quality of service and latency).

Dedicated

A local network, that is independently managed and easy to deploy.

Secure

Network with cellular-grade security that also keeps sensitive data  local on the premises.

Private network spectrum offers options for both mobile operators and new entrants.

Unlicensed/shared spectrum

  • Unlicensed spectrum can behave like dedicated spectrum in confined environments when controlled by the property owner
  • 5G NR is being designed with new spectrum sharing paradigms for enhanced performance 
  • Shared spectrum available on a regional level
