With 10x faster speeds, higher capacity and lower latency, 5G is a powerful platform for new innovations in healthcare, manufacturing, transportation,

logistics, energy, retail, entertainment and other industries.

How to put 5G to work for your business5G provides the power to improve many aspects of daily life and business. It’s not only revolutionizing the wireless industry, but also transforming the way organizations operate and millions of consumers live, work and play. To succeed in this new era, service providers and enterprise leaders need to weigh many factors in choosing the best 5G partners. For example:

Have they demonstrated the ability to supply high-performance 5G solutions at scale for leading carriers worldwide?

Are they secure enough for your mission-critical operations, corporate networks and private data?

Are their solutions fully integrated and tested, from end to end?

Can they can deliver a wide range of reliable products for different IoT deployment scenarios?

Do they provide complete, device-to-cloud data solutions?

These are not trivial considerations. If your solution provider can’t check all these boxes, perhaps it’s time to dig deeper, and align your organization with a proven 5G leader.

In this eBook we’ll look at key performance criteria, deployment status, IT considerations and other factors to help you chart your 5G strategy.

Why do some 5G devices outperform others? It starts with the components, designs and real-world deployment experience. Building on the latest 5G chipsets from Qualcomm,

Inseego incorporates its own high-performance antenna designs and RF technology along with proprietary thermal management techniques to provide a superior link

budget for stronger reception and sustained, high-speed 5G throughput.

Driving better 5G performance

Factor #1: A record of 5G performance

5G technology sets the stage for unprecedented speed and capacity. But that doesn’t guarantee that every 5G device will deliver optimal performance in every situation.

The quality, reliability and user experiences you achieve from mobile broadband devices, fixed wireless access (FWA) equipment and other edge solutions can vary widely from one manufacturer to another — especially since 5G is still new and evolving, with many technical hurdles and learning curves.

High speed > 2 Gbps

Low latency

Global commercialization experienceWhile some OEMs are still struggling to develop and certify their products, Inseego has already launched 5G products with many leading carriers, including all the largest U.S. operators and other leading service providers in Europe, the Middle East and Asia Pacific.

This experience – gained through global field trials, regulatory certifications, technical acceptance, and commercial launches of both mmWave and sub-6 GHz devices – provides the foundation for continued leadership in each successive cycle of 5G product development and deployment.

In short, choosing a solutions provider with a proven record of 5G leadership puts you in a stronger position, helping you put 5G to work in your business with greater speed and confidence.


Factor #2: Enterprise-grade security

In the 5G era, cellular networks will play a much bigger role in enterprise environments. In addition to supporting mission-critical infrastructure and IoT networks, wireless connections will deliver the primary communications for enterprise employees, government workers and consumers. In every case, security is a top concern.

Designed to provide many powerful new protections, 5G networks are inherently more secure than previous generations of cellular networks. But as with any network, vulnerabilities and threats can still arise. The importance of choosing devices with leading-edge security from a trusted vendor is more important than ever. Inseego prioritizes security at every stage, from the silicon to the software. All Inseego products are designed and developed in the USA with stringent security standards, validated by third-party penetration testing. We go beyond standard features and capabilities by adding layers of security that provide visibility into device use and diagnostics, including new SaaS device management solutions that make it easy for service providers and IT teams to actively detect and mitigate threats quickly across their entire fleet of devices. These features include:

Please contact Inseego to learn more about other security capabilities.

WPA3 and many other Wi-Fi security features, advanced encryption, OpenVPN, IPsec VPN.

Active threat detection and mitigation, including anti-hacking, anti-spoofing and encrypted upgrades.

Secure device architecture with no back doors or root passwords.

5G solutions need to provide end-to-end protection, from secure home Wi-Fi networks to IP/transport-level security and device

administration for business and government networks.

Edge applications Edge connectivity 5G network and edge cloud

5G networks and edge devices can move processing closer to the user, reducing the latency of a long “roundtrip” through the internet to a central cloud.

Ultra-low latency for instantaneousresponse and control

Factor #3: Proven end-to-end integration

5G wireless solutions can deliver split-second responsiveness for truly instantaneous interactions – without the frustrating latency or “lag” that can take the joy out of cloud gaming, disrupt video calls and make AR and VR users feel disoriented.

With end-to-end latency under 10 milliseconds, 5G also enables advances that were never possible before, including autonomous vehicles and remotely controlled machinery or robotics.

Every connection within a network plays a role in delivering lower latency. That’s why it’s important that devices are fully tested and integrated with the radio access network (RAN) infrastructure.

Inseego 5G devices have delivered sub-10 millisecond latency during live field network tests in multiple carrier aggregation scenarios and are interoperable with all leading RAN equipment suppliers. Inseego mobile broadband devices have already powered low-latency use cases like these:

Qwake Tech AR visualization - enabling firefighters to “see” through smoke with the help of thermal imaging to make life-saving decisions.

Verizon 5G Ultra Wideband live 4K streaming video – showcasing an AR experience where guests at a Star Wars movie premiere interacted with virtual Sith jet troopers from a remote location.

Low-latency cloud gaming – providing 5G connectivity for lightning-fast gaming demos by Nvidia and Ericsson.


Factor #4: Reliable purpose-built solutions

Today’s corporate and enterprise IoT networks span a broad range of environments and requirements, including:

Extreme conditions for critical infrastructure monitoring

Massive connectivity and throughput for private networks

Lightning-fast performance for smart factories

Mobility for transportation and logistics

Multi-carrier support for failover and flexibility

And in every case, device reliability is critical.

In other words, it’s important to choose a supplier that can deliver exactly what you need, whether it’s rugged durability, blazing-fast performance, flexible connectivity or a blend of all these features.
