Private LTE Solutions
Your own network. On your own site. On your own terms.
Ericsson Private 5G gives enterprise and industrial operations a dedicated on-premises cellular network built around their site, their coverage needs, and their operational demands — not a public carrier’s network.
Own the coverage
Built for your site map, including hard-to-reach areas, steel-framed buildings, remote zones, and underground operations.
Keep data on site
Operational traffic stays on your premises instead of routing through public infrastructure.
Support automation
Ultra-low latency supports automation, remote-controlled equipment, sensors, and connected worker applications.
Scale without ripping out
EP5G supports LTE and 5G on the same platform, so you can deploy what you need today and evolve over time.
Built to run itself
EP5G is managed through a simple cloud dashboard, updates itself, and can be deployed quickly. Westcan handles the design, installation, commissioning, and support — so your team gets enterprise-grade wireless without the enterprise-grade headache.
Connectivity
of mining leaders say talent shortages are holding back production targets — remote operations and automation are how they close the gap.
Production pressurereduction in maintenance time when connected AR tools reliably reach frontline workers.
Faster maintenancefaster site audits with reliable wireless coverage across the operation.
Site visibilityimprovement in safety compliance when workers stay connected everywhere on site.
Worker safetyWHAT YOU CAN DO WITH EP5G
Connected Workers
Push-to-talk, video, AR-assisted maintenance, and real-time safety monitoring all run on one reliable network that follows your people across the entire site.
Safer TeamsAutomation & Remote Operations
Autonomous equipment, remote-controlled drills, drone inspections, and robotic systems depend on low latency, high reliability, and network control.
Low LatencySite-Wide Data & Sensors
IoT sensors, cameras, machines, and tracking systems provide operational data in real time, giving organizations complete visibility across their entire operation.
Real-Time InsightsPrivate 5G was built for exactly these environments.
Mining
Private LTE/5G connects underground workers, autonomous vehicles, ventilation systems, and remote operations where public cellular simply doesn’t exist.
Oil & Gas
Secure communications for field crews, SCADA systems, inspection drones, and processing facilities spread across demanding operating environments.
Forestry
Keep mills, harvest blocks, logging equipment, and field personnel connected beyond the reach of public carrier infrastructure.
Utilities
Reliable communications for substations, smart grids, line crews, and critical infrastructure that cannot afford network outages.
Manufacturing
Private wireless supports automated production lines, robotics, AGVs, IoT devices, and reliable indoor coverage across large facilities.
Global Technology, Local Hands
Ericsson brings the platform — the same private network technology deployed by some of the world’s most demanding industrial operators. Westcan brings everything else: the site surveys, RF engineering, installation crews, Western Canadian field experience, and local support when something needs attention.
We’ve spent nearly five decades keeping mission-critical communications running across this region, from two-way radio systems to broadband push-to-talk, in-building coverage, and now Private LTE and 5G.
End-to-end, under one roof
Site assessment and RF design. Spectrum guidance. Installation and commissioning. Device provisioning. Ongoing monitoring and support. One partner, accountable for the whole thing.
Proven in the World’s Toughest Operations
Ericsson private networks are already running in mines, ports, factories, and energy operations around the world — carrying mission-critical traffic in environments where failure isn’t an option. Nearly half of the world’s mobile traffic already travels through Ericsson network technology. This isn’t emerging tech. It’s the same infrastructure the world’s carriers trust, packaged for your site.
“Private LTE is emerging as a real solution for enterprises that need reliable, secure connectivity on their own terms. Ericsson has built some of the most advanced private network infrastructure in the world, and we’re proud to bring that capability to our customers in Western Canada.”
