Description

In this episode, we take a clear-eyed look at what 5G really means for industrial IoT — beyond the headlines and bold promises. We talk about where 5G actually helps, like mobile assets, private networks, and hard-to-wire environments, and where it still falls short on the shop floor. The discussion covers latency, reliability, cost, and why wired networks are not going away anytime soon. It’s an honest conversation about matching the technology to the problem, not the other way around. If you’ve been wondering whether 5G is a game changer for your IIoT use cases or just another tool with specific limits, this episode helps set expectations.
