As the rise of data users continues alongside the rapid proliferation of devices connected to enterprise networks, organizations are seeking ways to modernize their networks. Although advances with Wi-Fi have helped to support more demanding requirements in recent years, organizations are increasingly deploying private 5G networks alongside—or even in place of—traditional Wi-Fi installations. The potential benefits of private 5G are vast, ranging from high performance, low latency, and extensive scalability to stronger security, customized deployment and control, and better support for emerging compliance and regulatory requirements.
However, these potential benefits can come at the expense of numerous challenges as this technology shifts from nascency to the early stages of maturity. To gain further insights into these trends, TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group surveyed 380 network IT professionals involved with cellular or wireless technology and processes at organizations in North America (US and Canada).
