Overview

Manufacturing is evolving faster than ever. From autonomous robots to AI-driven predictive maintenance, Industry 4.0 technologies demand a communications backbone that traditional Wi-Fi and Ethernet simply cannot deliver.

Breaking Through Manufacturing Connectivity Barriers

Factories today face a fast-changing landscape where responsiveness and flexibility are mandatory. Traditional network infrastructure can no longer keep pace with:

  • Cumbersome wiring and fixed layouts that slow down production line changes and expansion
  • Wi-Fi limitations, including interference from metal machinery and unstable connections
  • Legacy system silos that hinder full digitization and seamless machine-to-machine communication
  • Security vulnerabilities that expose sensitive production data and intellectual property
  • Scaling challenges as the number of connected devices like sensors, robots, and mobile assets explode
