Porsche Engineering and Vodafone Business have established Europe’s first 5G hybrid mobile private network (MPN) at Nardò Technical Center (NTC). The proving ground in Southern Italy, which is owned by Porsche and operated by Porsche Engineering, offers its customers a real-time communication network, which promises reduced delays, wider bandwidth, improved security and reliability, and faster deployment time.
The new mobile network infrastructure enables 4G and 5G coverage throughout the testing centre, which occupies an area of over 700 hectares in the Apulian region and has more than 20 tracks for high-performance testing. With the Vodafone Business 5G solution, NTC aims to enable its customers to efficiently develop and validate a wide range of future business-critical applications, from new connectivity, vehicle-to-infrastructure, and highly automated driving functions to self-driving vehicles.
Besides the new mobile network, now NTC also offers its customers a high-performance 1 Gb/s connection. This allows a fast and direct connection to the cloud, enabling globally networked cooperation and even more efficient data-driven engineering.
