Description

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Private LTE and Private 5G Network Market is accounted for $12.2 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach $46.3 billion by 2032 growing at a CAGR of 20.9% during the forecast period. Private LTE and private 5G networks are dedicated wireless communication systems designed for enterprises, industries, and government entities requiring secure, high-performance connectivity. These networks operate independently from public cellular infrastructure, offering enhanced control, reliability, and low-latency data transmission. Private LTE supports mission-critical applications with stable coverage, while private 5G provides ultra-fast speeds and advanced capabilities for automation and IoT integration. Organizations deploy these networks for seamless communication in sectors such as manufacturing, healthcare, and logistics.

According to STL Partners recently published private networks forecast estimates that 64% of total revenue from private networks by 2024 will come from LTE-based networks, despite the higher cost of 5G-bases solutions.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
