AT&T has announced its plans to expand its 5G network in an effort to allow customers in the US to roam off of private networks while still remaining connected to its public mobile network.
The telecom is collaborating with Microsoft and using Azure private MEC to deploy private wireless networks across a range of radio spectrums including CBRS as part of its new AT&T Private 5G Edge offering.
Essentially AT&T Private 5G Edge will bring private 4G/5G wireless networks as an integrated platform with connectivity and applications to enable low-latency services at the edge. This will allow businesses to make their private networks simpler, more flexible and easier to use.
