With the rise of Industry 4.0, major industrial players like ABB Ltd., Mercedes-Benz AG, and Siemens AG have adopted sensor-based technologies and industrial robotics for improved operational efficiency. Private 5G networks provide secure and seamless internet connectivity for these IIoT devices. The demand for Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) and real-time-based networking is also growing across industries such as manufacturing, oil and gas, aerospace, and transportation, fueling the need for private 5G networks to ensure high-speed and reliable connectivity.
Private 5G networks offer end-to-end security, making them essential for safeguarding information and infrastructure. They are expected to experience high demand in government, public safety, and enterprise data storage applications. The digitalization efforts in the oil and gas industry have further increased the requirement for secure and reliable bandwidth capacity, particularly in the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).
However, the Covid-19 pandemic has impacted the enhanced private 5G infrastructure implementation. The trial, testing, and spectrum auctions disruptions have delayed the market's growth. Governments worldwide, including the US, France, Spain, and Australia, have temporarily postponed 5G spectrum auctions, affecting the industry. Additionally, the decline in exports of telecom instruments for 5G radios and end-user devices due to the pandemic is expected to hinder the market's growth in the foreseeable future.

Growth Drivers
The private 5G network market is experiencing a growing implementation of highly secure 5G network infrastructure in various enterprise and industrial use cases. This trend is driven by the increasing demand for reliable and robust connectivity solutions that meet industries’ specific requirements, such as manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, and smart cities.
Private 5G networks offer enhanced security, low latency, high bandwidth, and network slicing capabilities, making them well-suited for organizations that require dedicated wireless connectivity to support critical operations and sensitive data transmission. Industries with stringent security needs, including defense, finance, and healthcare, are particularly adopting private 5G networks due to their end-to-end encryption, secure authentication, and isolation from public networks.
These networks enable advanced technologies such as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), machine learning, augmented reality (AR), and edge computing, facilitating real-time data analysis and decision-making. With improved coverage, reliability, and quality of service, private 5G networks help organizations enhance operational efficiency, automate processes, and drive innovation.
The rising implementation of highly secure 5G network infrastructure across the enterprise and industrial sectors is expected to continue as organizations recognize the transformative potential of private 5G networks and invest in their deployment to achieve digital transformation and gain a competitive edge.

The hardware segment holds the largest revenue share in the market. This is primarily due to the widespread deployment of core networks and backhaul and transport equipment globally. The Radio Access Network (RAN), core network, and backhaul and transport sub-segments play crucial roles within the hardware segment. Key network providers like Nokia Corporation, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., and Ericsson are deploying advanced equipment to support efficient operations and deliver high-speed bandwidth, thereby driving the growth of this segment.
Meanwhile, the services segment encompasses installation & integration, data services, and support & maintenance. With a growing emphasis on installing private 5G core networks for dedicated users to manage their data securely, the installation and integration services sub-segment is expected to experience substantial growth from 2023 to 2030. This reflects the increasing demand for professional services that facilitate the seamless integration and functioning of private 5G networks.
The sub-6 GHz segment holds the largest private 5G network revenue share. This segment is projected to witness a substantial CAGR over the forecast period. Sub-6 GHz frequencies include low band and mid-band spectrum ranges, primarily 6 GHz and below.
Governments in key countries like China, the U.S., Japan, and South Korea have recently allocated sub-6 GHz frequencies for 5G services. On the other hand, mmWave frequencies represent high band frequencies that offer exceptionally high connectivity with minimal latency. These frequencies are particularly useful in scenarios that require ultra-reliable connectivity, especially in infrastructure applications.
This growth is driven by the increasing demand for affordable high-speed private 5G networks. The unlicensed spectrum provides easily accessible bandwidth, making it highly preferred for massive machine-type communications applications.
In contrast, the licensed spectrum requires companies to purchase an entire license for a specific spectrum bandwidth to ensure enhanced and secure internet connectivity. While it is relatively more expensive than the unlicensed/shared spectrum, it offers greater reliability. The licensed spectrum can be obtained through Communication Service Providers (CSP). Some countries like the U.S. and Germany utilize the licensed spectrum for industrial and mission-critical applications. The licensed spectrum segment is expected to be driven by the increasing demand for highly secure connectivity in mission-critical applications such as Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) over the forecast period.
North America dominates the market with a market share. This is attributed to the presence of key solution providers like Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., and significant investments by leading service providers such as AT&T Inc. and Verizon Communications in deploying private 5G network infrastructure. The region also benefits from the robust deployment of industrial sensors by major automakers like Ford Motor Company and General Motors Company, creating growth opportunities. The increasing demand for Ultra-reliable Bandwidth Low Latency Connectivity (URLLC) across verticals like public safety, oil and gas, and aerospace and defense further drives the market growth in North America.
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing regional market over the projected period. The region benefits from the presence of manufacturers and their investments in automated factories. Key countries in the region, including China, Japan, South Korea, and Australia, are making significant investments to acquire 5G spectrum, contributing to market growth. Private 5G services are anticipated to become more popular in the area due to industrial companies like ABB Ltd., Siemens AG, and Mercedes Benz shifting to developing autonomous industries in Europe, notably in Germany and the U.K.
Some of the major players operating in the global private 5G network market include Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., Ericsson, Huawei Technologies Co., Vodafone Limited, Ericsson, Deutsche Telekom, Nokia Corporation, T-Systems International GmbH, Verizon Communications, AT&T Inc., Broadcom Inc., Ltd, Altiostar, SAMSUNG, Cisco Systems, Inc., ZTE Corporation, and others.
