LTE SOLUTION
LTE, Long Term Evolution, also known as 4G, is a standardized broadband wireless connectivity solution capable of deploying a mission-critical data connection network in just a few hours, depending on the existing infrastructure. This is a customized 4G network that is not tied to traditional operators, but is planned and built to meet the needs of a specific project or organization. There are a few reasons why 4G LTE is attractive to specific industries, usually located in more remote areas, such as agribusiness, mills/industries and even large construction sites:
- Globally adopted standard;
- Single technology platform and multiple services and applications;
- More affordable prices for network products and Boost terminals;
- The spread of mobile internet and smartphones;
- Greater demand for increasing levels of data transmission;
- New spectrum allocations;
- Providing fixed internet.
WHAT IS A PRIVATE 4G LTE NETWORK?
The network is based on an IP data traffic system (Evolved Packet System), which requires an architecture based on two main blocks: the LTE radio access network and the Evolved Packet Core (EPC). The LTE radio access network is responsible for transmitting data via the eNodeB. With eNodeB, the user device can send the signal and access the EPC interface via IP datagrams.
Another important part of the LTE network is the Operation and Maintenance Center (OMC), which supports the Evolved Packet System. Through the eNB monitor, you can access monitoring, configuration, maintenance and diagnosis of possible network faults in real time.
WHERE TO USE A PRIVATE 4G NETWORK
4G LTE Private technology is suitable for challenging scenarios, such as farmers who are not served by operators or industries that need an effective network in their huge yards. Check out how this solution can help different segments:
Agribusiness:
The 4G LTE Private network is often responsible for bringing social inclusion and basic digitalization to rural areas. But when it comes to agribusiness, technology goes much further: it enables intelligent sensing of machinery using IoT technology, guaranteeing automation and productivity on a large scale.
Industries and plants:
The use of private 4G LTE networks in factories makes it possible to deploy and connect an increasing number of devices for different production purposes. What’s more, because the network is completely designed for that scenario, it is unlikely to suffer instability due to interference from machinery.
WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF USING A
PRIVATE 4G LTE NETWORK
- Customization (network designed for specific needs);
- Up to 10x more outdoor coverage, and 4x more indoor coverage compared to WiFi networks;
- Use of private cell phones, independent of an operator, with no bill for use at the end of the month;
- Increased security, since all sensitive information is kept within your own network, without passing through a public network;
- Increased mobility by monitoring vehicles/devices and communicating with people on the move within the network;
- More reliability through the use of licensed frequency spectrum, high performance and low failure rates
ANATEL
One of the main advantages of the private 4G network is that it is not compulsory to buy a frequency, and all that is needed is to apply for a Private Limited Service (PLS) license and to license the stations. A factor that has a direct impact on the cost and timeframe of the project.
WHERE TO DEPLOY THE SYSTEM
It is a fact that commercial operators are unfortunately unable to offer coverage in some specific branches, usually located in more remote areas, such as agribusiness, mills/industries and even large construction sites. In this context, the 4G LTE Private Network is the ideal solution for bringing connectivity to the most challenging environments.
Typical applications
Connect people and machines in your operation via tablets, cell phones and CPEs within your own 4G network infrastructure. Mobility, quality and security with the best wireless technology independent of any operator, in compliance with the country’s standards, With the LTE ENODEB 2X20W 2.3GHZ BAND 40 it is possible to bring quality connection to the field, increasing
considerably the performance of machinery, processes and mobility. A good example is the possibility of creating a system of connected and monitored tractors or offering broadband with mobile access for power plants, mining, industrial plants or other operations.
