Stemming from the fifth-generation mobile internet, Private 5G is where Edge UOL, a company specializing in IT infrastructure services, is betting to offer digital acceleration and greater security to organizations in a variety of sectors.
Edge UOL, a company specializing in next-generation IT infrastructure services, announces that it is capable of applying 5G functionalities to companies in various sectors, especially industry. According to the company, 5G standalone—or “pure”—will be a game changer in terms of technology, contributing to digital acceleration and increased productivity.
“The main differentiator of the standalone version of the fifth-generation mobile internet is that it operates on a virtual environment, which will no longer operate exclusively on specialized equipment, but rather on traditional IT equipment, allowing companies like Edge UOL, focused on IT services, to become part of the telecom segment,” explains Rodrigo Rangel Lobo, COO of Edge UOL.
By November 27 this year, 5G should be available in all capital cities. The fifth-generation mobile internet is ten times faster than the previous version (4G), with less delay and greater reliability, impacting the lives of Brazilians and the national industry.
Greater reliability, range, speed, control, and security
Despite the many benefits, questions regarding data vulnerability in 5G are still latent. Recognizing that, in addition to speed, security is indispensable for the operation of industries, Edge UOL brings to light the differentiators of what is known as Private 5G, one of the peculiarities of the new technology.
“Edge UOL’s Private 5G solution makes it possible to obtain a standalone and exclusive network that maintains 5G speed and provides greater reliability,” says Lobo. The functionality can be used in various sectors, positively impacting the growth of the country’s industrial chain as it provides greater range, speed, control, and security. According to Lobo, Private 5G has low latency and supports more than one million connected devices per square kilometer.
With the new features of 5G, Edge UOL has listed the deliverables capable of boosting its clients’ digital transformation. In conjunction with major technology companies, Edge UOL offers specific 5G product lines that truly transform the client’s network. It also provides consulting services and guidance on the new technology to deliver a diagnosis of what is needed at the time of implementation.
Qualified digital acceleration
According to new research by global technology intelligence company ABI Research, entitled “5G Private Wireless in Manufacturing,” industrial and manufacturing companies around the world will have more than 49 million 5G connections within their facilities by 2030, which will generate US$2.4 billion in global connection revenue for providers.
“4G was undoubtedly a disruptive era for end users. Now, with the arrival of 5G, we are in a new moment for the industry,” says Lobo. “In general, we see two different paths that companies will have to take with regard to the introduction of 5G technology: some will dedicate part of their innovation budgets to the new technology, while others will have to change their infrastructure for something more modern at some point.”
According to Lobo, in addition to the application itself, Edge UOL is ready to provide specialized consultancy that can identify the best path for each client. “With qualified partners who contribute to delivering the full telecommunications service, which is the foundation for other technologies such as IoT, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Virtual Reality (VR), and Augmented Reality (AR), Private 5G will offer a complete digital transformation experience to society,” says Lobo.
