This means there is a huge window of opportunity for telcos and those industrial organizations that are yet to make a move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Signaling a paradigm shift, 40% of industrial organizations surveyed expect to roll out 5G at scale at a single site within two years and the experience of early adopters could persuade others to make the move. 5G trials and early implementations are delivering strong business benefits, with 60% of early adopters saying that 5G has helped to realize higher operational efficiency, while 43% say they have experienced increased flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The study also found that industrial organizations are optimistic that 5G will drive revenues by enabling the introduction of new products, services and business models. In fact, 51% of industrial organizations plan to leverage 5G to offer new products and 60% plan to offer new services enabled by 5G.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, industrial organizations are aware of the role of Edge Computing in their 5G initiatives and view it as essential to realizing the full potential of 5G. A total of 64% of organizations plan to adopt 5G-based Edge Computing services within three years, driven by the increased performance, reliability, data security and privacy it offers. More than a third of industrial organizations across sectors surveyed prefer to deploy private 5G networks, with interest in private 5G networks led by the semiconductor and high-tech sector (50%), followed by aerospace and defense (46%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Challenges remain for widespread adoption<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The report highlights that, to make the most of 5G\u2019s potential, organizations will need to address a number of challenges, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Integrating 5G with existing networks and IT systems: organizations are finding that the lack of standardized, interoperable solutions result in increased time for assembly and testing;<\/li><li>Defining 5G use cases and estimating their return on investment, especially in brownfield environments, where a return needs to be measured against existing options like wired connections and the cost of replacing cables;<\/li><li>Managing cybersecurity due to difficulties in selecting trusted or qualified vendors, anticipating the security impact of different network deployment scenarios and a lack of internal processes to reduce exposure to risk. As many as 70% of industrial organizations surveyed view the management of cybersecurity as a key challenge associated with 5G implementations;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Orchestrating a multi-vendor environment to deliver the multiple functional components that industrial 5G solutions consist of is another challenge. As many as 69% of industrial organizations view identifying, onboarding and managing multiple vendors as a key barrier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>G for green?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>5G offers many direct and indirect environmental benefits through its inherently energy-efficient design and its ability to enable environmental and sustainability-focused use cases. But industrial organizations are also aware of areas of environmental concerns and are already considering ways to tackle this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More than half (53%) of industrial organizations surveyed say that reducing the environmental impact of their 5G implementations is a priority, while 67% plan to take the sustainability credentials of 5G operators, vendors and suppliers into account as part of their 5G procurement decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.intelligentcio.com\/latam\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2021\/07\/Final-Infographic-5G_page-0001-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"116\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intelligentcio.com\/latam\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2021\/07\/Final-Infographic-5G_page-0001-116x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1653\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intelligentcio.com\/latam\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2021\/07\/Final-Infographic-5G_page-0001-116x1024.jpg 116w, https:\/\/www.intelligentcio.com\/latam\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/49\/2021\/07\/Final-Infographic-5G_page-0001-34x300.jpg 34w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 116px) 100vw, 116px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Click to enlarge the image<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>5G features have matched or exceeded expectations for a majority of early adopters and organizations are optimistic about the opportunities that it offers, according to the Capgemini Research Institute.
