Hype Cycle™ for Enterprise Networking, 2024

Why This Is Important
Multiple verticals will leverage 5G PMN deployments to realize the full effect of their digital transformation initiatives. Distinct from the public network, 5G PMN supports voice, video, messaging, data and Internet of Things (IoT) with higher performance requirements, even in the absence of existing public 5G coverage. It can optimize cost or connectivity (for example, 5G PMN is less expensive than Wi-Fi for large area coverage).

Celona has been positioned as a Sample Vendor for 2 consecutive years in the Hype Cycle for Enterprise Networking

5G PMN can offer enterprises improved reliability and security and increased independence while enabling efficiency gains.

Key drivers:

  • Requirement for full, reliable network coverage for machines, sensors and equipment, including indoor, outdoor, office and large industrial areas at a lower cost than Wi-Fi.
  • Performance profile for demanding industrial use cases, in particular when low latency, high bandwidth (especially uplink) and reliability are required and exceed the capabilities of the shared public infrastructure.
  • Some enterprises deploy private networks because they want to run their network more independently, as their own infrastructure, with limited outside dependency, such as long-term commitment from public network operators.
  • Data privacy can be a key concern, with data loss prevention security controls in place to ensure sensitive information does not leave the enterprise perimeter.
