China Mobile, the nation's largest telecom operator, has officially unveiled its plans to help a variety of industries build private 5G networks-a move expected to accelerate the application of the superfast wireless technology in manufacturing, healthcare, vehicles, ports and other areas. 

Zhao Dachun, deputy general manager of China Mobile, said 5G is deeply integrated with artificial intelligence, the internet of things, cloud computing, big data and other technologies, which will help thousands of industries embrace digitalization.
 
"Private 5G networks are a key way to implement innovative industrial applications and they can help meet thousands of industries' rigid demand for digital transformation and upgrades,"Zhao said.
 
Focusing on 15 industries, China Mobile has already built 100 key 5G pilot projects, more than 70 percent of which have put forward clear network-specific requirements. They demand not only large bandwidth, low latency and large-scale connectivity of 5G, but also call for efficient operations and maintenance and other diversified network capabilities.
