Research indicates a significant rise in private 5G network deployments by telecoms and industrial giants, with investments expected to increase at a CAGR of 41% from 2025 to 2028. Private mobile networks have been established for over a decade as a niche, but are now on the verge of becoming mainstream. Private 5G networks offer improvements in performance compared to LTE, including enhanced throughput, latency, and reliability. 5G features, such as URLLC and mMTC, are leading to their adoption in industrial-grade communications and potentially replacing wired communications in the future.
Private cellular networks based on 3GPP-defined 5G specifications are nearing mainstream adoption, with market potential surpassing that of private LTE networks.
Private 5G networks significantly enhance performance metrics such as throughput, latency, reliability, and connection density compared to LTE, making them ideal for industrial applications.
The report emphasizes 5G's Ultra-Reliable, Low-Latency Communications (URLLC) and Massive Machine-Type Communications (mMTC) capabilities as key drivers of its industrial adoption.
5G technology's broader coverage radius, scalability, and security features have sparked interest in replacing unlicensed wireless technologies in Industrial Internet of Things applications.
