Making industrial connectivity work.

Manufacturing. Warehouses. Ports.

Why standard wireless fails in these environments and where private 5G actually earns its place, straight from the people building and running these networks.

Container Trades Statistics

One problem, three environments

Same pressure. Different networks.

A plant floor, a distribution center with 100-foot racking, and a container yard moving thousands of boxes a day don’t share a connectivity problem and they don’t need the same fix.

Manufacturing

Plant floor · automation cells

Metal everywhere, motors and drives throwing RF noise, and control loops that can’t tolerate a dropped packet or a millisecond of jitter.

Warehouses

Distribution · fulfillment

Signal has to reach the top of 100-foot racking and hand off cleanly to robots moving fast down every aisle – with no dead zones between them.

Ports

Container yards · terminals

Outdoor scale measured in acres, weather, moving cranes and vehicles, and stacks of steel containers that block signal at every turn.

Who should attend

IT & OT operations and digital transformation leaders

Supporting industrial and logistics clients on connectivity and automation.

What you’ll get

A real deployment story
What private 5G solved and what it didn’t – across all three environments.

Operators and SIs on the record
How they vetted solutions and got past internal approvals.

Introduction

Quick welcome.

11:05 10 min

Why industrial wireless demands rethinking

Industrial sites weren't built with wireless in mind. RF interference, mobile equipment, safety requirements, and sheer physical scale push these environments past what standard enterprise wireless was designed to handle.

11:15 20 min

Private 5G in the field: manufacturing, warehouses, and ports

Real deployment examples from the plant floor to the port yard - what changed for the customer, and where private 5G earned its place against interference, mobile assets, tall racking, and outdoor scale.

11:35 20 min

Panel — from pilot to payoff

Enterprise operators and SIs on what they built, what went wrong, and what they'd change - plus how they vetted solutions and navigated internal approvals.
