There is a big opportunity for enterprises to converge 5G and WiFi connectivity into an integrated Private Wireless network. But how? Derek Peterson, CTO from Boingo, breaks it down:
– Understanding the importance of security in private wireless networks: Derek emphasizes the need for a single, comprehensive security management system that applies across all networks. He explains that the focus has shifted from traditional firewalls to securing the data being used, with each use case requiring a unique security approach.
– The role of neutral host providers in successful private wireless deployment: Derek highlights the need for an expert who understands all the available technologies and can bring them together in a converged manner. He stresses the importance of a neutral viewpoint that focuses on the use case and the partner, bringing all players together to meet everyone’s needs.
– Cost considerations in private wireless deployment: Derek explains that the major expense in private wireless deployment is usually in the implementation, not the equipment. He suggests a converged approach to share costs across different connection methods, which can help reduce the cost per gigabyte.
