PUBLIC SAFETY
Here are unique benefits of using private 5G for public safety:
-
Dedicated Network for Critical Operations: Private 5G networks can be tailored specifically for public safety, ensuring that emergency services have a dedicated and congestion-free network. Unlike public 5G or Wi-Fi, which may be affected by traffic surges or network failures, private 5G ensures that first responders can rely on a stable connection even during high-demand situations like natural disasters or large-scale emergencies.
-
Edge Computing for Faster Decision-Making: Private 5G networks can be integrated with edge computing, allowing real-time data processing closer to the source of information (e.g., cameras, sensors, drones). This reduces latency and enables quicker analysis of critical data (e.g., facial recognition or hazard detection), helping public safety personnel make faster, data-driven decisions in high-pressure situations.
-
Network Slicing for Prioritizing Public Safety Traffic: Private 5G supports „network slicing,” where different parts of the network can be customized for specific needs. This means public safety communications can be given priority over less urgent data traffic, ensuring that law enforcement, emergency medical services, and other responders have guaranteed bandwidth when every second counts.
