Pablo Tomasi, principal analyst for Omdia, joins the podcast to discuss why private 5G has become a “messy market.” 

The private 5G market hasn’t expanded at the pace service providers predicted, explained Tomasi. However, “the way forward is always going to be about how you are managing the mess, how you are getting strength out of each individual technology, and how to bring everything together and orchestrate it in a secure and better way,” he added.

Enterprises also need to consider which services and applications are best suited for private 5G, and which parts of the network should remain on Wi-Fi, for example, said Tomasi.
