Executive There has been plenty of momentum for private wireless networks through tothe middle of 2024. Not only are there now more deployments around the world,but there is also a healthy dose of realism that seems to have seeped into theindustry. Several major markets are increasingly opening up spectrum access The market for private networks, and private 5Gin particular, is growing at an impressive rate asenterprises increasingly engage ecosystem players,including telecoms operators and systems integrators,to set up private wireless networks. Industry attentionis increasingly focused on filling the gaps in the privatewireless proposition and, in this sense, this is also amaturing industry segment. Private 5G will continue means a lot of complexity and as a result there is ashift in the competitive landscape towards systemsintegrators as a key partner for enterprises. Systemsintegrators already have existing relationships withenterprises and are increasingly stepping up to lead on The diversity of enterprise requirements also meansthat one size does not fit all cases. This has manifestedin a few large vendors,such as Nokia and Ericsson, anda very long tail of smaller suppliers. One clear exampleis the vast number of providers for mobile coresoftware, from industry pioneers such as HPE Athonetto companies such as Celona and Druid Software. There is tremendous diversity among enterprises,not just in terms of their size and workloads but alsothe types of use cases that they are trying to enable.Increased coverage in enterprise sites has been a keyunique selling point (USP) of private wireless networks.Ultimately, however, coverage will be a composite of The real value in private 5G will be in the edge cloudsolution that gives enterprises the flexibility to deployworkloads and handle processing on-premises. Insome cases, workloads will also be segregated forprocessing through multi-cloud connectivity to There is also significant variation in the type ofdeployment models that are appearing around theworld. Spectrum is still a critical building block, andhow local regulators approach spectrum availability Market update:momentum continues, There continues to be demand for private wireless deployments across a rangeof sectors, with companies seeking customised connectivity to meet bespokeneeds. This means that operators with existing LTE-based private networkshave a competitive advantage to the extent that they can rapidly deploy private the last 12 months in the proportion of those that haveadded 5G into the offering. Now just under two thirdsof operators have deployed private 5G, which is doublethe comparable figure a year ago (see Figure 1). This hasbeen helped by the growing share of 5G SA networks, The numbers tell a clear story. There is strongmomentum for private 5G deployments, regardlessof whether they are being deployed by operators,systems integrators or enterprises directly. The numberof mobile operators deploying private 5G serves as a Figure 1 Despite regional variations, several markets around the world have made significant progress in the development North America: –Each of the three major operators – Verizon,AT&T and T-Mobile – have live deployments inplace and have made private wireless a priority –Key markets for private wireless activity includeGermany, France, the UK, Spain and the Nordic –The market is bifurcated into two broad campsbetween those using licensed (run by theoperators or vendors) and unlicensed spectrum. –The outlook is buoyed by demand from defence(for example, the US military is re
