KMU Campus Network – The 5G Standalone System
A private 5G campus network for small and medium-sized enterprises
High network stability, resilience, scalability and support for IoT applications.
Low acquisition cost due to software-based 5G campus network architecture.
Numerous application areas from factory site security to AR / VR and Industry 4.0.
What is an KMU campus network?
The KMU campus network is a 5G standalone system designed for small and medium-sized enterprises. The main advantage is the software-based architecture, which significantly reduces acquisition costs due to the elimination of licensing costs from well-known manufacturers. This means that small and medium-sized enterprises do not have to forego the benefits of a private 5G network.
Application examples for the use of 5G campus networks
Communication – 5G replaces WLAN
Faster, more secure and higher data exchange
Industry 4.0 – networking industrial machines and monitoring production processes
Improved and more precise networking of devices, reduction of the failure rate through real-time monitoring of machines and their wear and tear
Security of factory premises – integration of 5G cameras and/or drones for security monitoring
Detection and tracking of intruders until plant security arrives on site
AR/VR – Digital Twin and support from professionals
Display of exploded views directly on the device with precise localization of the defective section
Data sovereignty
Own data server on the factory premises, access only with special SIM card
Application examples for the use of 5G campus networks
Office communication, replaces WLAN with 5G communication
Faster, more secure and higher data exchange via mobile communications
Industry 4.0, networking of industrial machines and monitoring of production processes
Improve accuracy, reduce failure rates through near real-time monitoring of machines and their wear and tear
Security monitoring, integration of 5G cameras or drones for factory site security
Detection and tracking of intruders is made possible until plant security is on site
AR/VR, Digital Twin and support from professionals
Display of exploded views directly on the device with precise localization of the defective section
Sovereignty over own data
Own data server on the factory premises, access to the campus network is only possible with the appropriate SIM card
Technical advantages of the KMU campus network
Performance characteristics of 5G:
high bandwidth (eMBB), low latency (URLLC), secure network (AC), high number of connected devices (mMTC)
Private mobile radio (3.7 - 3.8 GHz):
access to the network only with the corresponding SIM card. Full control over network subscribers.
Customization for your company:
Depending on the requirements, an exact number of antenna units (indoor as well as outdoor) with corresponding design of the basic components (Central Unit (CU) / Distributed Unit (DU)) and the 5G core.

About
The architecture
The SME campus network is a combination of coordinated components:
Raemis™ from Druid Software maps the 5G core component of the KMU campus network. The core is based on the O-RAN standard, which pursues the goal of interoperability of devices originating from different vendors with a software-based architecture. The manufacturer of the Small Cells varies depending on the size and location of the area to be covered. Furthermore, commodity switches and antenna units are used for indoor and outdoor applications, depending on the required coverage.
becon integrates these components and ensures compatibility. The Core and the Central Unit (CU) are deployed on a powerful server. A dedicated server hardware is required for the Distributed Unit (DU) to which the antenna units are connected. Up to three outdoor antennas or up to eight indoor antennas can be connected to one DU.
Special SIM cards are supplied for integration into the “KMU campus network”. They are not designed for the public network and can only access in the private campus network. This is another security feature of the “KMU Campus Network”.

Fact Sheet
5G Campus for beginners |
The new mobile communications standard explained simply
What is 5G and what advantages does it bring? The fifth generation of mobile communications (5G) includes improved features from the last generation 4G/LTE. 5G is to be rolled out nationwide in Germany, thus eliminating the “white spots” (areas without mobile communications reception) in network coverage.
