TORONTO – Rogers for Business announced Thursday the launch of a managed solution for wireless private networks (WPN) that provides large businesses with a dedicated on-site wireless network platform to securely connect devices to their network, prioritize network traffic, control sensitive data, and run business applications.
The scalable solution delivers high performance with low latency and is suited for businesses in industries including mining, oil and gas, utilities and manufacturing, says the press release. Manufacturers can now connect more sensors, machines, and devices through a single private network, resulting in end-to-end visibility from product order through shipment and delivery, for example.
“With Canadian businesses on the lookout for the next competitive edge, Wireless Private Networks offer an agile solution that provides reliable and secure network connectivity over large, multi-site areas,” said Dean Prevost, president, connected home and Rogers for Business. Tech partners Ericsson, Expeto, and Cradlepoint are the vendors behind the new enterprise service.
