How NexaComm delivered a transformative private 5G network across 47 financial branches.
Meridian Financial Group needed a connectivity upgrade that could support real-time fraud detection AI, sub-10ms transaction processing, and 8K video surveillance — simultaneously across 47 branches in 11 states. Legacy MPLS was too slow. Public 5G lacked the security guarantees required by regulators.
NexaComm designed and deployed a standalone 5G SA private network with a centralised cloud core hosted in Meridian's two data centres, using CBRS spectrum. Each branch received two indoor small cells, a local MEC node for latency-critical workloads, and a 10 Gbps fibre backhaul.
"NexaComm's 5G deployment reduced our latency by 85% and cut connectivity costs by a third. Zero unplanned outages in 18 months — that's simply incredible reliability for a financial institution."
