Industrial 5G is super expensive. Also almost impossible to find a vendor that offers all the nice protocol features (Low Latency, native Ethernet tunneling, etc.) in their infrastructure.
replyMost don't want you to setup your own APN ;-)
replyThat's a standard IoT usecase almost all telcos offer.
replyWe have industrial SIMs with our own APN and get a IPSec tunnel to the Telco where we have a dedicated network to see our devices.
We have about 20 client devices, I would very much prefer to throw a bunch of APs into the warehouse and it just works - DECT can do it, so wifi should, too. I'd settle for 10mbit/s!
replyI know what you are trying to say.
replyBut they do use commercial wi-fi devices, albeit with a focus on configuring security correctly.
