Cut Through the Noise: Find the Best Fit for Your Manufacturing Wireless Needs

Historically, wireless technology in manufacturing has been limited to less-than-critical sensing applications and connecting IT devices. With rapid digitization of operations and ever-more-mobile applications, the need for high-throughput, scalable, reliable, broad wireless connectivity is rising. Modern wireless technologies have evolved significantly and have radically increased the options for connecting devices and applications in industrial zones. Manufacturers must now decide which technology or technologies to invest in. It is important that they choose the technology best suited for their use case without making compromises on IP networking, cybersecurity, automation, and performance. Join our experts for a discussion of wireless connectivity technologies that have evolved to support bandwidth-intensive worker productivity applications, reliable mobility for critical assets, and increased data collection from all areas of the plant. All of which significantly boost operational efficiencies and production uptime. We will cover: - The defining characteristics of various wireless technologies such as public and private 5G, Wi-Fi 6/6E, Cisco Ultra-Reliable Wireless Backhaul, and more - How to evaluate these technologies from their data rate, spectrum, cost considerations, etc. - How to select a technology by matching your manufacturing use cases with the available options - Why a combination of multiple technologies may be the right answer for you
