Scaling XR Deployments with Private 5G

XR technologies are transforming how enterprises (and government organizations) train employees, collaborate across geographies, and build immersive customer experiences. Yet as XR headsets and software applications continue to evolve, one core component is often overlooked: the network.

Most XR projects struggle to scale beyond pilot programs due to bottlenecks caused by unreliable or underperforming wireless network infrastructure. Wi-Fi and public 5G simply weren’t built to support the demands of large, multi-user deployments where high bandwidth and ultra-low latency are critical for seamless, immersive environments.

That’s where private 5G (P5G) comes in, delivering dedicated, secure, and scalable connectivity designed from the ground up to meet the rigorous requirements required of XR and edge computing environments.

Why traditional networks break when scaling XR

As XR adoption grows, enterprises face a new set of networking challenges:

• Massive Data Throughput: XR applications stream high-resolution video, spatial data, and motion tracking in real-time.
• Low Latency Requirements: Even slight lag can disrupt the immersive experience, can cause motion sickness, and/or degrade training outcomes.
• High Device Density: Multi-user environments such as labs, classrooms, and warehouses strain Wi-Fi networks with interference and bandwidth contention.
• Security & Compliance: Public networks can’t guarantee localized control, data privacy, or mission-critical SLAs so often needed in XR scenarios.

To solve these problems, some organizations deploy edge computing to move compute processing closer to the user, but this won’t work if the underlying network still relies on best-effort public links.

Private 5G: Purpose-built for XR, delivered through G REIGNS

Private 5G (P5G) provides the dedicated, low-latency, and secure wireless foundation that XR environments demand, but not all implementations have what it takes to meet these standards.

Enter G REIGNS , a private 5G platform purposefully designed to meet the demands of immersive technologies like VR, AR, and MR. Developed in collaboration with HTC, G REIGNS is a plug-and-play wireless system that combines the performance of private 5G with the practical realities of enterprise XR deployments.

With G REIGNS, enterprises benefit from:

• Predictable Performance: Delivers ultra-low latency and high reliability for real-time, multi-user XR experiences.
• Rapid, Flexible Deployment: Compact, suitcase-sized design enables setup in 30 minutes, ideal for fixed facilities, mobile units, or field-based XR environments. Can be paired with Starlink for last-mile connectivity.
• Edge-Compute Readiness: Seamlessly integrates with on-premise or mobile edge servers to support advanced use cases like cloud rendering and AI-driven simulation.
• Security and Control: Built on 3GPP-compliant architecture with localized data handling, ensuring privacy, compliance, and enterprise-grade security for mission-critical deployments.
• XR Optimization: G REIGNS is purpose-built for XR use cases and fully compatible with HTC VIVE hardware such as VIVE Focus Vision , ensuring smooth, high-fidelity performance from day one.

Whether you're scaling a collaborative design lab or delivering mobile VR training in the field, G REIGNS provides the wireless backbone XR solutions demand.

Case Study: Nissan’s private 5G XR collaboration platform

At Nissan Motor Corporation, designers, engineers, and stakeholders needed a high-fidelity VR collaboration platform to accelerate the review of full-scale digital models across teams. However, traditional networks couldn’t deliver the low-latency, high bandwidth, and stability required for realistic, multi-user interaction.

By deploying an HTC G REIGNS Private 5G network alongside an edge cloud platform and HTC VIVE XR technology, Nissan built a secure, multi-user immersive workspace that enabled real-time collaboration with near-zero lag. This setup supports life-sized 3D model reviews, streamlined decision-making, and reduced reliance on costly physical prototypes. The teams were able to move faster, more efficiently, and with greater design precision.

Case Study: Mobile Police training in Mexico City

The Mexico City Police Department needed a scalable and flexible solution to deliver high-impact VR training across diverse and infrastructure-limited locations. Traditional Wi-Fi and public 5G networks lacked the reliability and security required for immersive, multi-user training.

Using the HTC G REIGNS mobile P5G system, HTC VIVE XR headsets, and VIVE Location-Based Software Services, Mexico City police teams were able to deploy XR training scenarios wirelessly at any location. Officers are now immersed in real-time, high-fidelity simulations with unrestricted movement and spatial precision.

The dedicated private 5G network ensures ultra-low latency, seamless multi-user tracking, and consistent streaming quality. This new training environment is more immersive, effective, and mobile than traditional methods.

Is private 5G right for your XR deployment?

Whether you're just beginning your XR journey or scaling an established deployment, it’s not always clear when a private 5G network will become necessary. Below is a quick checklist of scenarios where private 5G can significantly improve performance, reliability, and scalability:

• Running multi-user immersive XR applications
• Experiencing interference or limitations with Wi-Fi
• Operating in security- or compliance-sensitive environments
• Planning to use edge computing or cloud-rendered XR
• Deploying XR in mobile, remote, or temporary locations

Conclusion: Your XR experience is only as powerful as your network

As XR evolves into a mission-critical technology, the network must be a strategic priority, not an afterthought. Private 5G is already powering real-world deployments across industries, delivering the reliability, control, and performance organizations need to scale immersive XR experiences with confidence.
