Earlier this year ABI Research forecast an accelerated convergence of communications technology (CT), information technology (IT), and operations technology (OT) to the forefront driven by cloud and edge computing. Key to that is for technology providers to work strategically to drive demand and adoption of this converged platform. It is becoming evident that every technology that surrounds us today is software driven or define. Time to market is essential to beat competition, hence #IT and #OT convergence is nothing but inevitable. But let's not forget that there is a #CT component as well. With stringent requirements in latency and time sensitive networking, mobility, security, device to device communication, isolated communication (LAN), the communication technology continue to evolve to support these convergence. Communication Technology existing in any industry/enterprises are not new, from the days of analog communication like the DMR, FM, to digital ones like GSM-R, enterprise LTE, WiFi... and then of course #3GPP Rel-16 onwards introduced updates and features to support the deployment of #Private5G. Take for example in the case of #manufacturing. Rel-16 introduces 5G LAN feature that can manage the grouping of IDs and make them into virtual networks (VNs). It allows isolation of multiple physical networks, e.g Wi-Fi network, the wired LAN for production, and Wi-Fi network for office work. The #5GLAN also supports cross segment Layer 2 and Layer 3 communication without the new of additional routers, which is key as PLC devices around the factories communicate via later 2 while 5G supports only later 3 communication. Another example is the Time Sensitive Communication (#TSC) in 3GPP Rel-17, enabling 5G to support any application, essentially an upgrade from the IEEE Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) from Rel-16 used as the main protocol for factories today. This will support the deployment of private wide area networks (WANs) which are relevant to industry in #logistics and #ports. There is never a lack of use cases. It's out there from automation to railway and manufacturing, mining, utilities and basically anything from sky to anything underground. There is also not a lack of technology and I believe Private 5G will be the perfect digital convergence. Came across some private5G use cases in this website (https://lnkd.in/g-_UhK6G) from deployment in Tesla Gigafactory plant in Brandenburg, Germany to 40,000 square meter warehouse CJ Logistics in South Korea. Note: Updated May2024. #ConvergenceTechnology #CommunicationsTechnology #InformationTechnology #OperationsTechnology #Private5G
