When COVID hit, the global supply chain was put under a significant amount of pressure which, teamed with other factors, has led to a drive to bring manufacturing back to the US. However, connectivity continues to be a key challenge in realizing this plan with some saying that WiFi is not best suited to the task. 

In this episode of TFiR: Let’s Talk, Swapnil Bhartiya sits down with Johan Bjorklund, CEO of Betacom to discuss the state of dedicated private cellular networks, particularly in light of the push to bring manufacturing back to the US. He goes into detail about some of the benefits of private 4G and 5G networks over WiFi and talks about Betacom’s role in testing out the new technologies and the standard of 3GPP Release 16.
