Private networks enable the digitalisation and automation that is becoming essential to port operations. This playbook is a deep-dive into private network deployments in ports.
This is the first in our series of proposition playbooks. We will address a different vertical each time, focusing in detail on the key factors involved in private network deployments in that specific vertical.
The playbook aims to help those looking to deploy private networks in ports; giving them insight into the port ecosystem and demystify the deployment challenges. It provides a detailed look at the key aspects of the industry to allow both telecom operators and technology vendors to understand their target markets and position their services accordingly.
