Kajeet’s Private 5G™ Platform Accelerates Enterprise Digital Transformation with Open Network Innovation
Kajeet, a world-class provider of private wireless and managed IoT connectivity, announced a collaboration with the Open Networking Foundation (ONF). The partnership is one of the many steps the company is taking to disrupt enterprise private 5G with a software-defined open network innovation. Kajeet’s Private 5G Platform will integrate ONF’s Aether, an open-source 5G connected edge platform, to bring together private wireless and Edge Cloud – delivered as a turnkey cloud-managed Network-as-a-Service.
“We are very excited about our partnership with ONF. It allows us to deliver an Innovative, Open, Carrier-grade Private 5G Platform that is purpose-built for enterprises. It seamlessly combines Kajeet’s public and private wireless solutions and expertise”
Unlike traditional carrier wireless networks and solutions, which are overly complex and address limited use cases with a patchwork of closed, proprietary and siloed systems, enterprises today need end-to-end open networks and flexibile platforms that optimize cost and operations for their specific digital transformation needs. The mission of Kajeet is to provide school districts, universities, municipalities, industries, and enterprises a smart, simple & secure cloud-based private 5G platform to be able to easily connect all their people, places, and things.
