Wi‑Fi has long been a go‑to connectivity option for industrial automation, but increasing demands for mobility, coverage, reliability, and security are exposing its limitations in many operational environments.
As industrial systems scale and move beyond fixed assets, control system integrators are being asked to deliver connectivity that performs consistently where Wi‑Fi and traditional wired networks struggle.
This session examines private cellular networks as a practical alternative — and complement — to Wi‑Fi for industrial automation and control applications.
Designed for control system integrators, the discussion focuses on where private cellular fits within modern industrial architectures, how it compares to Wi‑Fi and wired networks, and the types of use cases where it provides clear advantages.
In less than one hour, you will learn:
- Where Wi‑Fi limitations commonly impact industrial automation projects
- How private cellular differs in reliability, coverage, mobility, and security
- Typical industrial use cases where private cellular delivers measurable value
- The evolving device ecosystem
- How integrators can use private cellular to expand solution options, reduce risk and lower TCO
- How to bridge skills gaps so you can get started delivering carrier-grade private cellular networks
If you are interested in exploring practical decision‑making and real‑world deployment considerations to help you determine when to move beyond Wi‑Fi and how to apply private cellular effectively in industrial environments, then this session is for you.
