Verizon Business has partnered with 5G technology company Celona to create a solution that should simplify the adoption of private 5G networks by smaller and medium-sized businesses.
For the most part, private 5G has always felt like the exclusive domain of large enterprise-scale organizations, such as industrial complexes, university campuses, and government installations. However, many smaller companies can also benefit from private 5G — but they usually don’t know where to start.
This is where Verizon’s On Site 5G comes in. It’s a service that brings the carrier’s well-established expertise to the private sector. With On Site 5G, organizations can build their own 5G networks for their customers, partners, employees, and students based on the same technology that drives Verizon’s public 5G Ultra Wideband (UW) network.
One of the challenges that smaller companies still face in deploying private 5G is integrating it into their existing network infrastructure, which is where Celona’s 5G LAN solution comes into play.
With Verizon’s On Site 5G providing the 5G UW microcells and Celona offering its critically acclaimed 5G LAN products, customers will be able to quickly deploy 5G networks that can tie seamlessly into their Wi-Fi local area network (LAN) environment.
The use of private 5G technology helps to eliminate the coverage gaps that Wi-Fi networks are prone to, especially between multiple buildings. Celona’s 5G LAN also features advanced network management to ensure that only authorized devices can connect to the private network, along with advanced Quality-of-Service (QoS), so there’s always enough bandwidth available for mission-critical devices like integrated industrial and health care systems.
In a joint press release, Rajeev Shah, Celona’s co-founder and CEO, said: “Celona and Verizon have a shared architectural approach and vision for the power that 5G technology has in transforming business operations. We believe that 5G as a network software service, operating within common mobile edge compute environments, will give enterprises the agility they need to truly support their latest digital initiatives.”
Are you tired of paying for streaming services you never watch just to get a phone plan feature you actually want? T-Mobile has good news for you! The carrier is rolling out new plans, called T-Mix, in early November to replace its old Experience lineup with a build-your-own perks system called Picks.
The benefits you choose vary from streaming and gaming to food delivery, AI, satellite service, and phone discounts. But if you are satisfied with your existing plan, you can keep it.
Merely days after the iPhone Duo hit the shelves, images of broken screens on the phone started popping up across social media. Until now, it’s been unclear what’s causing the line of defective pixels that appears vertically along the crease, as well as horizontally, on the phone’s inner display.
Apple has finally acknowledged the issue, which has shown up on iPhone Duo units owned by customers as well as demo units in stores. In a statement shared with Bloomberg, Apple says that not all iPhone Duo units are affected and that those that are tend to show the display fault early on. The company added that users who experience problems with their iPhone Duo display should contact AppleCare for a replacement.
Not long ago, Apple treated independent repair like an act of outright hostility. The Cupertino giant locked down parts with serial-number pairing, while repair tools remained firmly out of reach of anyone outside its authorized repair network. More importantly, the company waged a legal and lobbying battle against right-to-repair legislation.
I've covered enough of these fights over the years to know what a shift looks like. That's why what happened in October 2026 genuinely caught me off guard. The day the iPhone Duo went on sale, what may be the most mechanically complex iPhone to date, Apple pulled off a surprising about-face. It published teardown-style repair manuals for a handful of major components.
