The network will leverage the 5G core to provide low latency, high performance and secure connectivity.

Iskratel, the leading European solution provider for the digital transformation of industries, and Telekom Slovenije, the leading Slovenian provider of the most advanced ICT solutions, observed the first tests of the 5G network they have built together to enable the smart factory in Kranj, Slovenia.

The joint solution has enabled the development of new business models and the testing of a smart 5G infrastructure. It connects a number of state-of-the-art virtual networks for individual business verticals, including smart factories. This is a key sector enabled by 5G, which will offer manufacturers and operators with significantly greater control and automation.
