What you could do

Here are some of the things you could do:

• Download movies much faster and stream games without any interruptions.
• Enjoy VR on the go without wires or nausea-inducing lag.
• Carry out remote surgery in near real time using robotic arms.
• Conduct live holographic phone calls.
• Benefit from AR guidance and training via smart glasses or car windscreens.
• Help drones co-operate in emergency situations.
• Enable driverless cars to communicate with each other and smart city infrastructure (such as traffic lights) more efficiently.

Create private networks

A Mobile Private Network (MPN) is a local network for use by a specific business or organisation. It is built to cover a specific location, and it is able to deliver better service with more control and security. It can easily be modified or upgraded as these requirements change.

Vodafone installs dedicated, secure Core infrastructure as well as a Radio Access Network covering the organisation’s premises, whether indoors, outdoors or both. It’s ‘private’ as the network would only be accessible by devices and machines that the organisation allows.

As the Core is located right next to the Radio Access Network, Vodafone can provide data services that meet customers’ specific, specialist requirements that cannot be met by the public network.

Customised connectivity experiences

Network slicing is a new way of delivering customised connectivity experiences.

It enables companies like Vodafone to create several different virtual networks on the same physical equipment.

Most importantly, these virtual networks are isolated from each other, which means one cannot impact the performance of another.
