What is a Private Network?

Private networks offer enterprises a purpose-built, high-performance wireless network with dedicated bandwidth and wireless infrastructure for their unique operational and connectivity needs. With a private network, you are in control of the mobile environment, and not a carrier in a traditional network. You make operational and management decisions for user devices and network parameters.
Wireless Communications are viewed as increasingly essential by most businesses today. Wireless connectivity is the “fourth utility,” joining legacy contributors electricity, water, and HVAC.

Carrier Networks and Wi-Fi have traditionally been leveraged to provide the wireless backbone for a wide range of enterprises, but those solutions present limitations that hinge on the networks being utilized by the general public or lacking the level of security and coverage your enterprise requires.

Network on Wheels

A Pierson Wireless Network on Wheels (NOW) is an easily-deployed and portable telecommunications tower that creates or enhances private network and wireless coverage for locations with suboptimal or no coverage. NOW units provide a flexible, cost-effective alternative to permanent tower installations. Learn more about Pierson Wireless’ NOWs and other mobile network assets by clicking the button below.

Private Network Spectrum Options

CBRS is the Citizen’s Broadband Radio Service, a 150 MHz-wide domestic broadcast band (3.55 GHz – 3.70 GHz). In January 2020, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) authorized full use of the band’s spectrum for wireless service provider commercialization, paving the way for the deployment of private networks. CBRS is governed by a three-tiered spectrum authorization framework:

  • Incumbent Access – Legacy band users, namely satellite ground stations and the US Navy
  • Priority Access License (PAL) – Auctioned, 10-year licenses for up to 70 MHz of CBRS spectrum, available on a county-by-county basis. Use may not interfere with Incumbent Access entities.
  • General Authorized Access (GAA) – The 80 MHz balance of the CBRS spectrum that’s not allocated to a PAL. Use of this portion of the spectrum does not require a license, but it does require interference coordination via a Spectrum Access System (SAS).

CBRS enables Private LTE and soon, Private 5G Network solutions. It’s often referred to as “The Innovation Band.”

OnGo is the brand name for Private 4G & 5G Network services using the CBRS band.

Band 41 EBS is a part of the Time Division Duplex (TDD) 4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) spectrum that requires only a single uplink and downlink frequency band. Band 41 rests between traditional bands and millimeter wave (mmWave), a range commonly referenced as “mid-band.” It has a bandwidth of 194 MHz and ranges from 2496 – 2690 MHz.

Band 53 GlobalStar is also a part of the TDD 4G LTE spectrum, and like Band 41, requires a single band for uplink and downlink. It has a narrower bandwidth (11.5 MHz), ranging from 2483.5 – 2495 MHz.

MuLTEFire combines the high performance of a 4G LTE network with the simple deployment of Wi-Fi. A network utilizing MuLTEFire’s unlicensed and shared 5 GHz spectrum can support private LTE.

Other partnerships with spectrum holders for use of their spectrum refers to bands reserved by the FCC for organizations like radio stations, cellular companies, and television providers. Unlicensed spectrum is free and open for anyone to use, for example, this is where Wi-Fi lives.

Wi-Fi uses multiple parts of the IEEE 802 protocol family and is designed to work seamlessly with its wired sibling, Ethernet. Compatible devices can network through wireless access points with each other as well as with wired devices and the Internet. Different versions of Wi-Fi are specified by various IEEE 802.11 protocol standards, with different radio technologies determining radio bands, maximum ranges, and speeds that may be achieved.
