👋 We recently had the opportunity to sit down with Gösta Kallner , Executive Chairman of the 450 MHz Alliance and chat to him about his thoughts about private networks, specifically on the 450 MHz spectrum. Read his views on the 450 spectrum and its applications ⤵️ 🔹𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝟰𝟱𝟬 𝗠𝗛𝘇 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆? From the perspective of the 450 Alliance, 450 MHz is the lowest standardised spectrum for mobile systems and is focused on industrial solutions. The spectrum is used for private networks, which are disconnected from public networks, enhancing security. 🔹𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝟰𝟱𝟬 𝗠𝗛𝘇, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗳𝗶𝘁 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗶𝘁? A primary advantage of using the 450 MHz frequency is the extensive coverage area per transmitter. Users typically need a secure network with good coverage, whether it's for many low-bandwidth users or a few broadband users. We see the 450 MHz spectrum as well suited to utility, public safety, transportation, and agriculture. 🔹𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝟰𝟱𝟬 𝗔𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼? The 450 Alliance is a non-profit organization that operates on a global scale, concentrating on the frequency spectrum range of 380 to 512 MHz. Our work encompasses spectrum discussions and consultations with users and regulators globally, supporting use cases, and driving the end-to-end ecosystem. 🤝 𝗪𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗼 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗱 𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝟰𝟱𝟬 𝗔𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 To learn more about 450 MHz as well as the products and solutions we provide, check out 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dZG3D4mp #450alliance #450mhz #450frequency #westermo #connectivity #privatenetworks

⚡𝐓𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐄𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐲 The energy industry is undergoing significant transformations, primarily driven by the rise of renewable energy and digitalization. In a recent interview with David Åkerman , he highlighted key trends and their challenges: ☀️ 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐰𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐠𝐫𝐢𝐝? Renewable energy is expected to surpass fossil fuels within the next decade. This shift is leading to a more distributed energy grid, where large production centers coexist with local renewable sources, such as private solar plants. The main challenge in this new landscape is maintaining grid stability and ensuring a consistent energy supply. This requires effective communication and coordination between power producers and grid owners to manage the more volatile nature of renewable energy sources. 🧑💻 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐤𝐞𝐲 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐝𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐳𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐠𝐫𝐢𝐝? The electricity grid, especially the low to medium voltage levels, is becoming increasingly digitized. Advanced meters are being introduced to manage energy usage and billing, creating vast amounts of data and communication streams. This digitalization effort aims to enhance the efficiency and reliability of the grid, but it also presents new challenges in terms of data management and cybersecurity. 🔧 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐖𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐨 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫? Westermo plays a crucial role in addressing these challenges by providing communication solutions tailored for the energy sector. As the number of connected devices increases, ensuring robust cybersecurity becomes essential to protect the grid from potential threats. Westermo’s solutions help to secure the communication infrastructure, thereby supporting the stability and reliability of the energy grid in this new era of renewable energy and digitalization. #Westermo #energy #energytransformation #renewableenergy #electricitygrid #cybersecurity
