Private networks driving Digital Transformation of Industry

Industrial IoT

Druid’s 4G/5G private networks are critical to the delivery of applications being seen in Industry 4.0. The 4th industrial revolution is fuelled by cyber physical systems (CPS) and Internet of Things (IoT) technology, to realize highly efficient, connected and flexible factories of the future. Druid’s private networks provide dedicated secure coverage, low latency and ease of management and expansion that are vital to the IIoT applications in this target domain.

Port Automation

Cargo handling is a highly automated business, the use of unmanned container handling equipment is becoming necessary for shipping companies to maintain competitiveness. The deployment of unmanned vehicles requires large amounts of data to cope with the positioning application, vehicle control and cargo data. Druid’s private cellular 4G/LTE solution provides dedicated secure coverage, low latency and ease of management and expansion which is critical for this type of solution.

Manufacturing

Druid’s private 4G/LTE provide dedicated voice, messaging & data for both enterprise communications and IoT in manufacturing environments. PMR/DMR (walkie-talkies) communication is being replaced with MCPTT (mission critical push to talk) 4G applications, with integrated man down & lone worker alarms. Druid’s ability to prioritise this critical voice and alarm traffic on the 4G network is vital to safety in these conditions. With robotic automation and telemetry being rolled out in today’s smart factories, Druid’s dedicated secure coverage, low latency and ease of management and expansion is critical for these IIoT solutions.

Smart Warehouse

IoT presents a unique technology transition that has huge implications for the business of logistics, manufacturing and warehousing. As we move from 15 billion connected devices today to some 50 billion by 2020, and embed sensor technology and analytics throughout our organizations, companies will enjoy unprecedented visibility into operations, enabling new sources of value. The need for dedicated private networks to connect all these devices is now business critical. Warehouse enterprise communications is also benefiting from the transition from more expensive DMR/PMR walkie-talkie technology to push to talk (PTT) applications on smartphones. Cellular devices can be used for scanning inventory, communications, man down and lone worker alarms for example. Private networks are also essential for the real-time response and low latency need for robotic automation applications which are emerging.

Mining

In remote mining locations Druid’s 4G/LTE networks provide vital local data connectivity. For communications, private 4G is being used as an essential replacement to older and more expensive PMR/DMR (walkie-talkies) technology. Druid’s dedicated secure coverage ensures a QoS (guaranteed quality of service) for MCPTT (mission critical push to talk) 4G applications, with integrated man down and lone worker alarms.

Utilities

Utilities do not want to compete with a public network’s other customers for bandwidth in the aftermath of a storm or other major event. They also do not want to find out that the public network is down when they need it most. Druid’s 4G/5G dedicated private networks provide that vital backup for utilities and energy providers. The ease of management and expansion of the Druid private network is essential, with dedicated secure coverage where its needed for the enterprise workers and the critical business process applications in use at these plants.
