ASKEY Launches Fully Secure Private 5G Critical Communications System
Designed for mission-critical and tactical use cases, it provides high-bandwidth, low-latency connectivity over a coverage area of about 1–2 kilometers.
Askey announced a strategic collaboration with Acromove to jointly launch a rapid-deployment 5G critical communications solution, integrating Acromove's portable edge data center platform with Askey's carrier-grade 5G radio access technology.
The jointly developed solution delivers a fully secure private 5G communication system that can be deployed from scratch in minutes, without reliance on public network infrastructure. Designed for mission-critical and tactical use cases, it provides high-bandwidth, low-latency connectivity over a coverage area of about 1–2 kilometers, well suiting for defense, aviation and critical infrastructure environments. The full private 5G network goes from zero to operational in under 10 minutes, delivering secure, high-throughput communication system where it's needed most.
By pairing Acromove's edge data-center-in-a-box with Askey's compact ruggedized 5G radio systems, organizations can rapidly deploy a self-contained 5G network with minimal configuration and manpower. The architecture enables compute, core network and radio functions to be deployed together at the network edge, drastically cutting deployment timeline and operational complexity.
It is being validated with clients in key APAC markets, such as India and Australia across their defense, aviation and mining domains. We are not only working closely together to further enhance the joint solution and enable additional use cases, including expanded mission-critical, industrial, and mobile edge scenarios, but jointly aligning product roadmaps, system integration, and validation activities to address a broader range of operational requirements.
"By leveraging Acromove's edge data center platform with Askey's 5G radio technology, we provide organizations to rapidly deploy secure, high-bandwidth communication networks exactly where they are needed," said Minchul Ho, SVP of Askey International Corp. "This collaboration underscores our shared commitment to practical, production-ready 5G solutions that address real operational challenges."
