The mobile network operator Plus, Ericsson, and GlobalLogic have reached a breakthrough stage on the path to Poland’s digital transformation. GlobalLogic, in cooperation with Plus, has launched an independent Ericsson Private 5G campus network at its facilities in Kraków. The solution provides a secure and intelligent foundation for new Industry 4.0 applications.
The new network supports advanced analytics based on artificial intelligence, video analytics, and intelligent asset management. This demonstrates the growing value of specialized 5G connectivity in real-world conditions. The project was carried out as part of the cooperation between Plus and GlobalLogic and the long-standing partnership between Ericsson and Plus. The Ericsson Private 5G solution will enable GlobalLogic to further develop and implement industry solutions based on next-generation technologies.
GlobalLogic already has a number of innovative solutions for the telecommunications sector, including systems using AI for network traffic analysis and anomaly detection, real-time telemetry, and video image analysis—such as the use of drones in the automotive and industrial sectors. The company also continues R&D work on applications in other sectors. Future projects include remotely controlled demonstration vehicles and intelligent asset management systems enabling predictive network maintenance and real-time data collection.
“The first deployment of an independent private 5G campus network, in cooperation with GlobalLogic and Ericsson, is an important step in the development of our offer for business clients. It is a concrete realization of our announcement, made jointly with Ericsson at the beginning of the year, regarding the construction of independent private 5G networks in Poland and another step towards digitization and the implementation of Industry 4.0 solutions,” says Michał Sobolewski, Vice President of Plus.
“Cooperation with Ericsson and Plus is a breakthrough moment for GlobalLogic. It illustrates our commitment to using the latest technologies, such as a private independent 5G network, to support innovation in Industry 4.0. The successful deployment at our Kraków facility and the development of advanced solutions confirm the great transformational potential this technology brings to our clients from various industries. We look forward to further opportunities and want to continue pushing the boundaries of what is achievable through secure and efficient connectivity,” says Yuliia Shtukaturova, Vice President of GlobalLogic responsible for the European Region.
“The announced deployment of Ericsson’s private 5G network at GlobalLogic’s Kraków headquarters is a significant step in Poland’s digital transformation. This partnership shows how a private 5G network provides secure and reliable connectivity, creating a solid foundation for the development of Industry 4.0. Ericsson consistently delivers innovative solutions supporting industrial modernization,” says Martin Mellor, Head of Ericsson in Poland.
The implemented Ericsson Private 5G solution, based on a single dual-core server, provides secure and efficient connectivity. This enables the rapid deployment of local data protection systems and the handling of demanding industrial tasks that require minimal latency, high reliability, and advanced data control.
During the deployment, GlobalLogic’s experience with the Ericsson Private 5G network was utilized, including existing integrations operating at Hitachi Rail facilities in the USA. The entire project confirms the dynamic development of the private 5G network market in Poland, which supports enterprises in implementing and scaling Industry 4.0 solutions.
