Leveraging the power of 5G for faster speeds and better security

5G is no longer just a buzzword—it’s becoming an essential technology for industries that rely on consistent, high-speed connectivity. From logistics hubs and warehouses to container terminals and production facilities, 5G is helping companies work more efficiently and securely.

Let’s take a closer look at what 5G can offer in high-demand environments. And when 5G is combined with our well-known JLT6012 vehicle-mount computer or our new JLT6015, the result is high-speed connectivity, low latency, and better security.

The power of 5G in industrial connectivity: Faster, Smarter, and More Secure Operations

Whether deployed on a 5G Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN) on a public or private network, 5G offers a range of benefits that make it particularly well-suited for industries that demand reliable, high-volume data transmission and low latency.

• Faster data speeds: Enables quick transmission of large datasets, including high-resolution video feeds, IoT sensor data, and machine diagnostics
• Seamless connection: Move between indoor and outdoor environments without interruption
• High device density: Ideal for deployments where a multitude of vehicles, devices, and sensors communicate simultaneously
• Enhanced stability and reliability: 5G’s ultra-low latency and high-speed connectivity enable seamless real-time communication, reducing delays and ensuring consistent data transmission
• Improved cybersecurity: Higher encryption standards and private 5G network options reduce the risks of hacking or data breaches
• Enhanced security & customization: advanced security features and more control over system configurations

Explore 5G in action: real use cases driving industrial innovation

The power of 5G goes far beyond speed—it’s transforming how industries connect, work, and grow. 5G is already in use across many practical use cases. A few examples include:

Private 5G Networks

• Secure, reliable communication across large industrial sites—perfect for ports, plants, and smart factories. Full control, full encryption, and seamless cloud integration.

Smarter Field Operations

• 5G keeps outdoor teams connected with real-time data access and blazing-fast performance, no matter the environment.

Edge Intelligence

• Run mission-critical applications at the edge with minimal latency. Ideal for manufacturing, precision agriculture, and real-time analytics.

Outdoor Productivity

• From the field to the terminal yard, 5G keeps mobile teams connected with lightning-fast cellular access wherever work happens.

 

A closer look at JLT6012 with 5G – Rugged, Secure and Future-Ready

JLT6012 is 5G-ready for the European market and certified with the latest 5G standards for next-level performance in warehousing, logistics, and supply chain operations.

JLT6012 leverages 5G technology, offering ultra-reliable, secure connectivity. It enables real-time data access, automation, AI-driven analytics, and more. It is perfect for large-scale sites, multi-location logistics or warehousing, smart factories, container terminals, mining, and airports.

JLT6012 5G-ready computer complements our current portfolio of rugged mobile computers. With the industry’s most compact design, modern Windows 10/11 IoT Enterprise LTSC, and our user-friendly JLT PowerTouch™ display, the JLT6012 enhances user efficiency from day one. Features like managing DC voltage from 9-72 volts, high-brightness adaptive displays, and customizable function keys make daily tasks faster and easier—indoors or out.

It has a dock-free unit and sensors (MEMS), enabling new levels of workflow optimization, uptime, and safety.

 

As 5G becomes more widely available, its potential in industrial applications is becoming increasingly clear. When paired with rugged vehicle-mount computers like JLT6012  and JLT6015 designed for ruggedness and durability, it enables more efficient workflows, stronger data security, and better responsiveness across operations.
