5G Perspective

How 5G powers digital transfor­mation for enterprises

Enterprises are em­bracing 5G as a key enabler of their digi­tal trans­formation to Industry 4.0. This digital trans­formation will unify and streamline enterprise assets – healthcare devices, vehicles, factory equipment, and more – using 5G-enabled technology.

Remote healthcare, smarter and connected shop-floor equip­ment, and connected mobility in trans­port are just a few of the use cases that 5G promises enterprises.

How 5G transforms enterprises
Engineering research and development (ER&D) services companies will drive the adoption of 5G, and assist in enterprise digital overhaul as companies set out to improve processes, and fulfill their business goals.

The deployment of 5G is expected to boost efficiencies on the shop floor by automating production lines, making machines wireless and smarter, and establishing a reliable and secure connectivity network.

Most enterprises say that current networks are what hinders their tech progress. They note that 5G will eliminate this roadblock, allowing them to become efficient, automate processes, and offer customers better services.

5G’s proven agility helps manufacturers leverage 3-D VR and AR, critical for remote maintenance, helping them get closer to building the factory of the future. Such a factory will be agile and fully connected, and provide an automated production facility experience – one where operators get complete trans­parency while managing the entire value chain, from design to distribution.

5G and the manufacturing revolution
Industrie 4.0, as we know it, is set to realize its true potential through the power of 5G. Indeed, 5G acts as a foundation for manufacturing and its pursuit of digital transformation. Manufacturers are setting up robust reliable networks and unlocking many transformational use cases across their value chains; 5G, therefore, is a foundation for manufacturing operations, and is revolutionary in scope.

5G-enabled networks are already helping manufacturers build digital threads, used to unify and orchestrate data across the product lifecycle, from design to engineering, manufacturing, operation, and service; at the same time, it is also instrumental in developing complex digital twins across their operations to maximize productivity. Moreover, 5G is facilitating develop­ment of intelligent operations that are managing cognitive quality control at one end, and ensuring that assets are optimized throughout their lifecycles.

Manufacturing is positioned optimally to leverage the reliability that 5G brings with it, and develop complex systems that will transform it, lending a boost to prevailing Industrie 4.0 initiatives.

Enhanced data
ER&D helps enterprises capitalize on the surge of data that Internet of Things (IoT) equipment and 5G-applications create, a study by Siemens notes. Armed with volumes of rich data, enterprises can improve their ideal customer model. A holistic view of the customer will enable enterprises to improve customer experiences and bolster loyalty.

Sci-fi use cases now a reality with 5G
The untapped potential and opportunities for 5G use cases is currently unfathomable, a McKinsey article notes. ER&D teams can boost the economic efficiency and economic growth of their organizations by understanding the role of, and applying, 5G capabilities.

Bridging business goals and output, ER&D teams are at the forefront of 5G-powered change. 5G offers rich use cases across several industries including autonomous vehicles, remote robotic surgery, EMBB, i.e., enhanced mobile broadband, and fixed wireless access (FWA), which allows networks to deliver ultra-high-speed broadband to suburban and rural areas.

Enterprises have faith in 5G to disrupt IoT, with cutting-edge tech that will improve processes and encourage employee growth, while maintaining and exceeding client satisfaction.
