umlaut launches Open RAN private network to accelerate development of connectivity solutions for clients
umlaut , part of Accenture , has opened a private 5G standalone ,
Open RAN network in Aachen , Germany . The ‘ 5G Campus Lab ’ enables companies across industries to design , test and implement ultra-high-speed and low-latency connectivity solutions faster without having to invest in building their own network .
Powerful wireless connectivity is becoming increasingly important as companies are heading towards a total enterprise reinvention , which will transform every part of their business through technology , data and Artificial Intelligence . Some examples of this transformation include connected vehicles and bringing robotics and cloud-based automation solutions to factories , which will generate massive amounts of data and put enormous pressure on data networks .

• Companies can validate their existing 5G use cases to identify and resolve issues upfront , such as ensuring that different end-devices and sensors work smoothly together . They can go hands-on without having to set up their own private 5G networks , which are costly to build and usually require obtaining a license from network authorities .
• Companies can experiment with umlaut ’ s use cases . These include but aren ’ t limited to the following areas : smart manufacturing , including process automation and predictive maintenance ; telemedicine with a digitised rescue chain ; software-defined vehicles ; and real-time Augmented Reality for digital twins .
