Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC) has launched a comprehensive Enterprise 5G strategy, designed to offer businesses seamless connectivity through its private 5G and neutral host solutions. The newly unveiled portfolio is set to provide enterprise customers with advanced solutions to drive innovation, safety, and operational efficiency. The strategy integrates enterprise wireless solutions with a focus on flexible deployment and simplified lifecycle management.

Ericsson’s Enterprise 5G portfolio comprises three key solutions aimed at addressing the connectivity challenges faced by enterprises:

1. Ericsson Private 5G: A flexible 4G/5G cellular solution supporting industry and licensed spectrum with robust coverage, security, and low latency.
2. Ericsson Private 5G Compact: A CBRS-based solution ideal for environments where Wi-Fi struggles, using a simplified radio architecture.
3. Ericsson Enterprise 5G Coverage: A neutral host solution certified by major U.S. carriers, offering a cost-effective alternative to Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS).

The portfolio is powered by Ericsson NetCloud Manager, a cloud management and orchestration platform, which enables customers to deploy, manage, and monitor networks with ease. The platform offers seamless provisioning, configuration, and policy management, as well as AIOps for actionable insights, all through a unified interface.

Manish Tiwari, Head of Private Cellular Networks at Ericsson, noted the importance of 5G in meeting enterprises' increasing demands for automation and connectivity, stating that traditional solutions like Wi-Fi and DAS often fall short in terms of complexity and performance. Ericsson’s 5G offerings address these gaps by providing flexibility, efficiency, and superior performance.

Ericsson's approach includes pre- and post-sales support, vertical expertise, and training for channel partners, ensuring that businesses can focus on their innovation goals without being hindered by connectivity challenges.

Pablo Tomasi, Principal Analyst for Private Networks and Enterprise 5G at Omdia, emphasized that Ericsson's ability to meet customers at various stages of their 5G journey is critical to helping the market scale and enabling enterprises to fully leverage the benefits of 5G.

In addition, Ericsson announced the development of new networked devices to complement its private LTE, 5G, and coverage extension solutions, offering reliable connectivity in areas where wired networks are impractical.
