According to Swisscom, their technology possesses the capability to be readily expandable in terms of accommodating a larger number of devices and expanding the coverage area.

Swisscom now offers a 5G private network that can be provisioned and adjusted to cater to the wireless networking needs of event organizers, offering a network for professional use or to support the internet connections of visitors during an event. This solution not only ensures user-friendliness but also maintains a high level of professionalism.

The proposed solution aims to serve as an additional resource to enhance current internet connections in situations where WLAN or public 5G networks have reached their maximum capacity. This may occur as a result of a high volume of visitors or the need to cover wide areas. Based on the assertions made by the company, the potential to build secure broadband connections without the need for intricate cabling presents event organizers with a multitude of benefits.

The essential elements required for the deployment of a 5G private network are conveniently provided in a pre-configured package or, in the case of larger events, in a vehicle equipped with a retractable antenna. The 5G network, which is characterized by its superior quality and enhanced security measures, may be accessed through a range of internet connectivity options.

According to Swisscom, their technology possesses the capability to be readily expandable in terms of accommodating a larger number of devices and expanding the coverage area.

Furthermore, it is designed to be compatible for usage in both indoor and outdoor environments.

The new private 5G solution is on show at Swisscom booth during the upcoming IBC event that will take place the city of Amsterdam, The Netherlands from 15 to 18 September.
