New report breaks down Private Cellular for Industrial markets

CAMPBELL, Calif., July 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Mobile Experts Inc. released its detailed analysis of the Industrial Private Cellular market this week. While rapid growth was expected by many people in this market, the reality has been slower, and the new Mobile Experts report provides clear insight into the remaining challenges that are holding the market back.

Private Cellular is a rich market spanning multiple sectors

The new report, Industrial Private Cellular 2025, provides 67 pages of analysis and 30 charts and illustrations to describe the future of Private LTE and Private 5G. It's clear that this is not a single market with a uniform set of requirements. Instead, it's a collection of niche applications and vertical markets, each with unique integration requirements, devices, and spectrum needs. The Mobile Experts analysis includes quantitative insight about the business models, network infrastructure and device market opportunity, indoor and outdoor RAN shipments, and LTE, 5G, and incumbent technology share mix for each vertical market area.

"We've investigated each vertical market individually, to understand the best business models, the best products, and the ROI for enterprises to deploy private cellular networks," commented Kyung Mun, Principal Analyst. "There's deep demand for better connectivity in the market, and in key verticals such as Mining, Logistics, Manufacturing, and Utilities, we see great examples of companies achieving a fantastic ROI on their Private LTE networks. With the fundamental need for reliable connectivity with wide coverage and mobility support, this market has a deep enough pool of opportunity for 25 years of growth."

To best illustrate the possibilities for growth in each market, Mobile Experts has created a tool called the "Readiness Wheel" which gauges the maturity of various technology and business factors for the market to scale up. The firm has applied this tool to Manufacturing, Energy, Utilities, Logistics, Transportation, Mining, and Government sectors, to make the future path of each market crystal clear.
