In a short span of five years, private 4G and 5G networks have stirred much excitement. But do the outcomes justify the hype? Enterprises wrestle with choices between Do-It-Yourself, managed services, and public operator network slices. How do neutral hosts and system integrators help? What are the most viable technologies for private wireless? Private network deployments are generally customized for the client, and it is hard to compare the costs and benefits. So do CIOs know how to evaluate their choices, and do they have the real-world data to compare? Are there pitfalls in implementation that they should consider while planning private network deployment? Let’s find out.
