Enabling Private Network Interoperability with Public
Networks
Private wireless networks are driving innovation across multiple
industries from manufacturing to healthcare and beyond, enabling
enterprises to harness data quickly, securely, and more accurately.
And ultimately, leading to faster and better decision making.
Enterprise private cellular networks, concentrating largely
on broadband applications in industries such as education,
manufacturing, health care, public venues, office campuses, and
retail locations had an estimated market of $1.7 billion in 2021. The
market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 36%, reaching $8.3 billion
by 2026, according to IDC1. These private wireless networks offer
enterprises wireless connectivity beyond that of WiFi, supporting a
multitude of stationary Internet of Things (IoT) and mobile devices
with expanded capacity, bandwidth, the promise of lower latency
and, as required, mobility beyond the premise.
However, many of these IoT devices may not remain sedentary;
It is critical for enterprises to establish
both a functioning private wireless network
that not only provides the infrastructure,
management, and capabilities of a cellular
network, but to also have the ability to
support mobile devices as they roam
between the private and public networks
they might be nomadic and require connectivity beyond the private
network as they traverse both regionally and internationally. Kathiravan Kandasamy

private network and into different networks creating a connected Syniverse Technologies
world. Maintaining seamless and secure connection from a local
private network as it transitions onto a public network is becoming
increasingly crucial to many applications – from transportation to
logistics to college campuses and medical facilities.
