"The Private LTE & 5G network ecosystem: 2025-2030 - opportunities, challenges, strategies, industry verticals report calculates that global spending on private 5G and LTE network infrastructure for vertical industries will grow at a compound annual growth rate of approximately 22% between 2025 and 2028, eventually exceeding $7.2bn by the end of 2028."
"In addition, more than 70% of these investments - an estimated $5.1bn - will likely be directed towards the buildout of standalone private 5G networks, which the analyst said are well-positioned to become the predominant wireless connectivity medium for Industry 4.0 applications in manufacturing and process industries, as well as critical communications over mission-critical broadband networks for sectors such as public safety, defence, utilities and transportation."
"SNS Telecom & IT sees this growth continuing where standalone 5G core investments are growing, but noted that radio access network (RAN) sales remain flat following a sharp decline in 2024. It added that against this backdrop, the real-world impact of private networks - spanning both facility/campus-based and wide-area deployments - was clearly visible across a diverse range of customers, from manufacturers, port operators and airlines, to sports clubs and public sector organisations."
Nearly 1,300 new private cellular network engagements occurred over the past 12 months, with 5G deployments overtaking LTE across many vertical industries. Global spending on private 5G and LTE network infrastructure for vertical industries is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of about 22% from 2025 to 2028, exceeding $7.2bn by end-2028. More than 70% of investments—around $5.1bn—are likely to fund standalone private 5G buildouts, positioning them for Industry 4.0 and mission-critical communications. Standalone 5G core investments are rising while RAN sales remain flat after a sharp 2024 decline. Private networks are visible across manufacturers, ports, airlines, sports clubs and public-sector organisations and are set to transform private RAN, mobile core and transport into an almost parallel equipment ecosystem to public operator infrastructure.
