5G COMPARED WITH WIFI LAN LATENCYHIGH RESOLUTION VIDEO STREAM FROM A MOBILE ROBOT

CAMPUS EDGE VS. PUBLIC CLOUD NETWORK LATENCYREAL TIME USE CASE REQUIREMENTS LEAD TO EDGE COMPUTING

▪ Public Cloud up to 450 ms

▪ Edge LTE Campus Network < 30 ms

▪ Edge 5G Campus Network < 10 ms

EDGE COMPUTING USE CASES WILL BE COMING UP IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF YEARS

5G CAMPUS NETWORK PRODUCT VARIANTSPHYSICAL PRIVATE SLICE WE HAVE WITH CAMPUS L

▪ Enhanced coverage on the campus by

means of additional infrastructure

▪ Neither data prioritization or guaranteed

resources for private traffic

▪ No physical local network installation

▪ Network latency and bandwidth same as

public network

▪ Enhanced coverage and prioritized data

traffic on the campus by means of

additional infrastructure (indoor and

outdoor) and virtual private data

connection

▪ Shared resources for public and private

network

▪ No exclusive, physical local core network

▪ Slightly enhanced latency and bandwidth

due to data prioritization

▪ Private slice and guaranteed resources for

the private network on the campus

▪ Exclusive, physical local core network

▪ Very low latency and high bandwidth with

guaranteed KPI.

▪ Local data processing thanks to a direct

connection to the Campus Edge computing

platform (optional)

▪ Integration infrastructure to integrate

enterprise IT backend systems (optional)

Campus Edge Integration PlatformHorizontal & vertical integration

▪ Pre configured universal adapters for connecting legacy machinery, IT systems and cloud applications.

▪ Graphical interface to customize semantical protocol mappings and generate custom connectors.

▪ Integrate smart and reliable: usually there is no need to change existing systems.

▪ Build in GDPR compliance protects sensitive data.

File system adapters (SMB, WebDAV, FTP etc.)File format adapters (CSV, EXCEL, PDF etc.)Protocol adapters (REST, SOAP, iDOC, BAPI, RFC, EDI etc.)Prepackaged adapters for industrystandards (SAP, HL7, BiPRO).
