Bharti Airtel partners with Tech Mahindra to deploy captive 5G private network at Mahindra's Chakan manufacturing plant

Bharti Airtel and Tech Mahindra announced a strategic partnership in which they have deployed the '5G for Enterprise' solution at Mahindra's Chakan manufacturing facility, making it India's first 5G enabled Auto manufacturing unit.

The '5G for Business' solution has significantly improved Chakan's network connectivity, resulting in faster software flashing speeds, a critical operation for all vehicular dispatches. Because of the high speeds and low latency, managers can now run multiple software flashing sessions in parallel, resulting in a shorter operation turnaround time, stated the company in its media filing.

Furthermore, computer vision-based inspection is now fully automated, resulting in higher paint quality. Airtel is at the forefront of 5G deployment in India. As part of its #5GforBusiness offerings, the company has been testing use cases and spectrum delivery with multiple partners and at various locations.

Airtel's industry-leading integrated connectivity portfolio of '5GforBusiness,' combined with Tech Mahindra's industry knowledge, will enable customers to benefit from specialised services, proven system integration capabilities, and 5G enterprise solutions capabilities such as Factory.

NXT and its domain expertise in private wireless network planning, design, deployment, and management for enterprises will benefit enterprise customers and accelerate the adoption of transformative network technologies such as 5G in India.
