Private LTE is an attractive target for OnGo, as new business opportunities and vertical use-cases open up in industrial IoT and in-building wireless. New low-cost LTE equipment and new spectrum options will enable new business opportunities that have been difficult to exploit in the past. OnGo can benefit both enterprises and operators. Private LTE networks can provide reliable connectivity and seamless mobility for general wireless communication and industrial IoT applications – achieving levels of performance that Wi-Fi has been unable to meet. In addition, private networks can potentially relieve a growing problem of inadequate mobile connectivity services indoors due to poor coverage or insufficient capacity – so the operators can benefit as well. OnGo can “franchise” the benefits of LTE in more places where operators may not find good business return but where enterprises see greater need and opportunities.
