About this episode
This week, we're getting a behind the scenes look at the private networks that power our ports and industrial campuses and keep us connected both underground, in the subway, and inside stadiums. As consumers, we're used to being connected to sprawling cellular networks from the likes of AT& T and Verizon in the U. S., BT, and Deutsche Telekom in Europe. SK Telecom, Telstra, Vodafone, you know, all those big operators. But private networks are a bit different. How? Well, though they use the same cellular equipment, they're generally smaller than commercial cellular networks. They also provide dedicated bandwidth and can be deployed by companies and venues to ensure that the data that flows over them is more secure than it might be on public networks. Many companies are now moving away from traditional distributed antenna systems and towards private networks, whether those be 4G or 5G.
