Private 5G · Industrial IoT

The network your operation can depend on.

dcelements designs, deploys, and operates private 5G and industrial IoT networks — engineered on Celona and Cisco — so your crews, sensors, and vehicles stay connected across every acre of the site.

The industrial edge

Coverage, control, and security — where the RF is brutal.

Plants, pads, and yards punish wireless: heavy steel, motor and drive noise, and assets always on the move. Private 5G is built for exactly this — longer reach from far fewer radios, licensed CBRS spectrum that shrugs off interference, and SIM-based identity — engineered alongside Cisco Wi-Fi so every zone gets the right radio.

01Coverage

Structural steel, tanks, and dense inventory reflect and absorb signal, and open yards outrun short-range radios. Private 5G covers the whole site from a handful of radios — a fraction of the cost of a Wi-Fi-only build — with Cisco Wi-Fi for dense local zones.

02Control

Licensed, scheduled CBRS spectrum delivers deterministic latency and QoS you set — the predictable performance real-time control, robotics, and safety need, and that best-effort or public-carrier links can't guarantee.

03Security

Every device authenticated by its SIM or eSIM, your data kept on-premises, and identity and segmentation yours to control end to end — carrier-grade security across the whole site.

What we deliver

One private network for the whole site — designed, built, and run.

A complete private 5G and industrial-IoT stack, matched to your coverage, your assets, and your OT — engineered as one system.

Private 5G coverage

Licensed-grade CBRS coverage that blankets the whole site with deterministic QoS and enterprise security — the reach of many access points from a handful of radios.

Ultra-reliable wireless & backhaul

Cisco URWB gives fiber-like wireless for moving assets and remote nodes — near-zero latency, zero-loss handoffs, and multi-kilometer reach. Where there's no fiber and no cell, we backhaul the whole site over Starlink satellite, with Celona Edge running right at the site.

Hazardous-rated field coverage

Cisco Catalyst IW9167E-HZ access points — IP67 and certified for hazardous zones. Wi-Fi 6E for the workforce and URWB for the infrastructure, in one hardened radio.

OT/IoT security & edge

Celona Aerloc extends your existing Cisco ISE and firewall policies into the private 5G network — SIM-based, zero-trust access, so only authorized and compliant devices connect. Backed by Cyber Vision OT visibility and ruggedized IR edge routing.

Design → deploy → operate

RF and spectrum design, install and integration, cutover, and 24/7 managed operations — one accountable partner for the life of the network, not a hand-off after go-live.

Our process
Technology

Built on Celona and Cisco — engineered as one network.

Private 5G and Wi-Fi, the core, security, and backhaul — designed together and backed from RF plan through 24/7 operations.

Endpoints attach to Celona Access Points; the on-prem Edge runs the private 5G core; Orchestrator manages it all from the cloud.

Celona 5G LAN

CBRS private 5G coverage with per-app QoS and MicroSlicing, seamless handover, and Aerloc security that extends your Cisco ISE policy into the network — data on-prem via SIM/eSIM.

Cisco Wi-Fi & IoT

Cisco Wi-Fi 6/6E for high-density zones, URWB for moving assets, Cisco ISE and Cyber Vision for identity and OT visibility, and IR edge routers — the blend, engineered together.

Backhaul, any site

Fiber to the core, URWB across buildings and yards, and Starlink for remote sites — with Celona Edge running on-site.

The right radio for each job. Private 5G for wide-area coverage, mobility, and SLA-critical traffic; Cisco Wi-Fi for high-density local access and the workforce. One network, designed together — with Cisco ISE for identity and Cisco Cyber Vision for full OT visibility and segmentation.

One platform, tuned to your operation.

The same private 5G foundation, shaped to the coverage, assets, and hazards of your vertical. Explore your vertical below.

The endpoint ecosystem

Every endpoint the operation runs on.

From the smartphone in a worker's hand to the gateway bridging a PLC, these are the kinds of devices we put on your private 5G network — a non-exhaustive, continuously-growing list. Every endpoint is managed by SIM or eSIM in Celona Orchestrator, with REST APIs for management, monitoring, and telemetry.

About dcelements

We built the whole practice around 5G.

Private 5G for heavy industry is the one thing we do — with the senior people, the vertical depth, and the accountability to own it end to end.

Specialists, not generalists

Private 5G and industrial OT is all we do — a practice built for exactly this.

Senior engineers, start to finish

You work with the people who design, deploy, and operate your network — one accountable team.

Best-of-breed, and owned

The right Celona + Cisco design for your site, engineered and backed from RF plan through 24/7 operations.

How we work

From site survey to a high-performance network.

01

Assess

Site survey, RF design, CBRS spectrum coordination (SAS), and use-case mapping against your coverage and OT.

02

Design

Coverage design, core and security architecture, device strategy, and a costed bill of materials.

03

Deploy

Install and CPI-certified turn-up, integration into your IT/OT, validation, and a controlled cutover with zero surprises.

04

Operate

Monitoring, SLAs, optimization, and support — the network stays covered for its whole life.
