Fujitsu is to start operating a private 5G network at its Shin-Kawasaki Technology Square office in Kawasaki City, just over a month after winning what it said is the first commercial 5G radio license from the Kanto Bureau of Telecommunications. The Japanese ICT specialist is to use the non-standalone 5G network in the 28.2–28.3GHz frequency range to strengthen security in an area of 28,000 square meters at the site. It said it will create a system using artificial intelligence for the transmission of high-definition images collected by multi-point cameras. Furthermore, it has opened a collaboration lab to enable customers and partners to test private 5G use cases.

Fujitsu also intends to apply for commercial 5G licenses in other locations. For example, it aims to use a private 5G network to transform its Oyama manufacturing plant into a smart factory.
