Private networks today stretch across factories, remote sites, secure zones, and mobile operations. Hundreds, even thousands, of devices all relying on consistent, high-performance connectivity.
But when something goes wrong, when connectivity drops or performance degrades; it doesn’t just slow things down. It can halt operations entirely.
That’s why we built XEdge, an intelligent platform that brings edge testing, monitoring and cybersecurity into a new era.
Whether you’re running enterprise, utilities, defense, or other business critical networks, XEdge fits in.
By providing true edge network intelligence, XEdge transforms SLA monitoring from what can be a complex, resource-intensive task to a streamlined, automated process.
That’s because XEdge combines advanced edge computing with a centralized cloud dashboard, and artificial intelligence (AI) analytics. This means organizations can ensure compliance with private network and Wi-Fi SLAs, and conduct continuous network testing and monitoring, all in a way that’s much simpler than traditional radio network management.
Key Benefits:
- Continuous 24/7 tests and automated alerts the moment performance falls below your defined thresholds – no manual intervention needed.
- Centrally manage and visualize all distributed XEdge sensors from one intuitive dashboard – a single pane of glass for observing network performance.
- Powered by a secure cloud (or on-premises) controller that delivers AI-driven analytics and trend reports, turning raw data into actionable intelligence.
- Open APIs and flexible integration into existing workflows (OSS/NMS), enhancing them with live mobile network KPIs for proactive service assurance.
- Rugged sensors that adapt to monitor any environment and are always connected.
- Designed for mission-critical networks, ensuring first responders, critical infrastructure, and enterprise operations stay connected and within SLA – even under harsh conditions or strict compliance requirements.
- Privacy: each customer has a unique controller to manage its XEdge devices.
Introducing the XEdge Sensor Range
XEdge is designed for network professionals who manage private mobile, or Wi-Fi environments, and need to guarantee high-quality service across every location and every device—automatically. The types of sensors used (fixed sensors, multi-carrier sensors and mobile sensor agents), are designed for use with LTE and 5G technology and the FR1 band. Both also support the same KPIs, applications and testing scenarios, and are operated using the XEdge Controller.
XEdge V2 Sensor
- Multi-carrier, high-capacity unit for comprehensive monitoring
- Larger sized sensor unit
- Accommodates 1,2 or 4 Sim cards/ modems
- Ideal for monitoring, walk tests and drive tests
- Suitable for indoors only
XEdge Agent
- Android mobile sensor SDK that runs on corporate smartphones and tablets
- No root access required — fully MDM-compatible for enterprise deployment
- Turns every employee device into a walking network sensor
- Captures real-world user experience: the calls they make, the data they use, where signal drops
- Scales from dozens to thousands of devices across campuses, warehouses, and fleets
XEdge Cyber
- Private 5G is typically not fully secure by default. That’s because devices using private 5G networks share the same IP space as the SCADA and OT systems.
- XEdge Cyber verifies authorised access and policy enforcement across private 5G networks from the user’s perspective.
- It strengthens operational confidence by continuously monitoring named endpoint reachability, DNS and HTTPS identity, configuration drift, and reporting.
XEdge Sensor Lite
- Compact, cost-efficient sensor for dense or distributed placement
- Lightweight unit
- Accommodates 1 sim card/ modem only
- Ideal for monitoring and drive tests only
- Suitable for indoors and outdoors* (*subject to FCC approval)
XEdge Cyber Key Features
-
IP Reachability TestingVerify which IPs and ports a UE can reach — detect open paths to OT/SCADA that should be blocked
-
Firewall Rule ValidationTest allow/deny policies from the device side — confirm segmentation works as designed, not just configured
-
Application-Aware Threat SimulationTraffic Pattern Library, DPI Validation, Threat Vector Library, L7 DPI — Only from 5G UE perspective
-
Continuous Drift DetectionAutomated 24/7 re-testing — detect when config changes break segmentation before attackers do
Use Cases
Mining
-
XEdge: Keeping mines connected, productive, and safe
Mining operations rely on private 5G, Wi-Fi, and IoT to connect autonomous vehicles, worker safety devices, and operational sensors.
In pits, underground tunnels, or remote locations, downtime or blind spots can mean lost productivity and serious safety risks.
XEdge is useful for conducting walk tests and XEdge Lite has sensor units designed to be rugged and weather-proof. Together, they enable continuous monitoring, even in harsh conditions.
Cybersecurity and the Military
-
XEdge: Cybersecurity analysis, constant monitoring, and military labs in 5G environments
While not a firewall or IDS, XEdge provides ground-truth intelligence on how networks behave under cyber or electronic attack.
It detects spoofing, jamming, and overloads; validates resilience across bands and operators; and integrates with military cybersecurity frameworks for both real-time operations and forensic investigation.
Distributed Antenna System (DAS) Providers
-
XEdge: Enhancing deployment, acceptance, and quality of service
Distributed Antenna System (DAS) providers face constant pressure to design, deploy, and maintain reliable multi-operator indoor coverage in high density venues such as airports, stadiums, malls, and corporate campuses.
Customers expect seamless service, operators demand SLA compliance, and regulators require audit-ready proof.
XEdge gives DAS companies the tools to deliver — across the full lifecycle from deployment to operations — at a very low cost.
Maritime & Shipping
-
XEdge: Enhancing deployment, acceptance, and quality of service
Maritime operations now rely on private 5G, Wi-Fi, and IoT to connect autonomous vehicles, worker safety devices, and operational sensors.
Devices on-board and portside need to be connected at all times and in all locations, to avoid lost productivity and serious safety risks.
XEdge is useful for conducting walk tests and XEdge Lite has sensor units designed to be rugged and weather-proof. Together, they enable continuous monitoring, even in harsh conditions.
System Integrators
-
XEdge: A comprehensive mobile network monitoring solution
XEdge enables system integrators to gain a strategic advantage in network monitoring, giving them powerful tools to analyze, optimize, and secure network operations across multiple sectors.
The combination of detailed analytics, drive and walk testing functionalities, and a pure focus on monitoring makes XEdge an indispensable solution for advanced network management.
This means system integrators can differentiate their offerings, deliver exceptional value to their clients, and stay ahead in the rapidly evolving landscape of private network and Wi-Fi monitoring.
