Common wireless connectivity challenges for robotics automation include disconnects while autonomous mobile robots (AMR) roam between indoor wireless access points, lack of coverage in very large outdoor areas for automated guided vehicles (AGVs), and inconsistent latency in network communications. These challenges force many enterprises to stick with wired LAN connectivity in order to ensure predictable quality in network communications for their robotics infrastructure - limiting their ability to support robotics use cases supported with mobility and incurring high costs due to large investment in cabling costs.
All of these challenges can be addressed with private 5G LANs, at a fraction of the cost compared to these traditional options. In this session, Mehmet Yavuz, CTO of Celona, will discuss how leaders in the supply chain industry can craft their own private cellular strategy given their existing infrastructure, unique environments and desired business outcomes. Topics include:
- Introduction to Use of Private LTE/5G Cellular in the Enterprise
- Common Customer Use Cases and Technology Benefits
- 5G LAN Deployment Principles to Support Robotics Automation
- Onboarding Options to Private Cellular for Robotics Infrastructure
- Total Cost of Ownership and Return on Investment Analysis
