Industries Are Mining The Potential For Wireless Private 5g Networks

The Detour Lake gold mine in northeastern Ontario is set to benefit from new technologies like remote drilling and autonomous trucks, thanks to a 5G private network implemented in partnership with Rogers. The Globe and Mail’s “Expanding Wireless Private Networks” webcast on Sept. 14, 2023 featured expert panelists who discussed the opportunities wireless private networks provide and how different industries are leveraging 5G to improve day-to-day operations and capabilities. At the remote location of Detour Lake, 5G is supporting faster connectivity for devices, a more secure network and a safer work environment. 5G private networks have changed the way companies like Agnico Eagle operate and think about the future of the company and their employees.
