PRIVATE NETWORKS
A SINGLE SOLUTION TO DESIGN PRIVATE LTE & 5G AND WI‑FI NETWORKS YOU CAN RELY ON.
With cloud-connectivity, seamless integration to iBwave Mobile Survey for surveys, advanced 3D modeling, a powerful prediction engine focused on delivering design accuracy even in complex venues, and a large database of vendor-modeled network parts, iBwave Private Networks is the simplest and most reliable solution to plan, design and deliver high-performance Private LTE & 5G and Wi‑Fi networks.
iBwave Private Networks offers a flexible way to purchase. Available as a full Private Networks (Private LTE/5G and Wi‑Fi design solution) or a Wi‑Fi only design solution. Subscription and unlimited shared licenses also available.
iBwave Private Networks
(LTE/5G and Wi‑Fi)
The full iBwave Private Networks solution gives you one solution to design your Private LTE & 5G (including bands for Europe, APAC and Latin America), and your Wi‑Fi networks. Model your venues in advanced 3D with AutoCAD import, design from a database of vendor-modeled network components (Small Cells, Aps, cables, controllers, routers, etc), calibrate prediction with survey results and run key project reports like bill of materials with a single click.
iBwave Private Networks
(Wi‑Fi only solution)
iBwave Private Networks (Wi‑Fi only solution) is our powerful PC-based 3D Wi‑Fi network planning and design solution. Use it in conjunction with iBwave Wi‑Fi Mobile or on its own to do active and passive surveys, model venues in stunning 3D, design from a full database of accurately-modeled network components (APs, cables, controllers, routers, switches), calibrate prediction with survey data, and run key project reports for your installation team and customers.
iBwave Viewer
iBwave Viewer is a free, simplified and read-only version of iBwave Private Networks your customers can download to review any project design files you send them and run their own reports.

HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS
1. INTRODUCTION
Smooth and rapid operation of iBwave Private Networks is highly dependent on Boost Clock Speed of the processor, the number of cores, and the amount of RAM in the system. For highly complex designs involving a large surface area, high number of transmitters, and number of wireless services, the Recommended specifications listed in this document are meant to provide the best experience for users attempting to build accurate designs through rapid iterations of designing and predicting the system.
2. RECOMMENDED SPECIFICATIONS
The following table describes the minimum and recommended specifications of iBwave Private Networks. A Recommended system is one that can reliably execute complex designs over large venues with numerous transmitters and large square footage.
Recommended Specifications will offer the highest performance while offering similar results in terms of execution time for a single user.
| Desktop Minimum | Recommended | |||

| Core | 6+ Performance Cores | 6+ Performance Cores | 8+ Performance Cores | 128 Cores |
| Operating System | Win 10 Pro, 64 bits, x64- base processor | Win 10 Pro, 64 bits, x64- base processor | Win 11 Pro, 64 bits, x64- base processor | Windows Server 2022 |
| RAM | 16 GB DDR4/DDR5 | 16 GB DDR4/DDR5 | 128 GB DDR5 | 256 GB |
| Storage | 1TB NVME | 1TB NVME | 2TB NVME | 2TB+ |
| Performance (Stadium – Signal Strength) | 2h 30m | 3h 24m | 1h 13m | 1h 01m |
2.1 GPU-ACCELERATED SPECIFICATIONS
When coupled with GPU acceleration using supported CUDA® operations on Nvidia® devices, there is a marked reduction in prediction times on these systems. The base computation for every prediction map is the creation of Signal Strength matrices describing the power at each point of a prediction map. Utilizing the GPU for these computations can result in further performance gains relative to the system used.
Note: CUDA GPU Acceleration is available starting in Release 22 of iBwave Private Networks for all packages of iBwave Private Networks.
| Laptop | Desktop | Cloud | |
| System | As Recommended | As Recommended | As Recommended |
| NVIDIA Video Card | RTX 4070 (Mobile) | RTX 4090 | A100 |
| GPU-Accelerated Prediction Time | 1h 43m | 28m | 29m |
CERTIFIED NVIDIA® DEVICES:
Devices that comply with a minimum of CUDA® Compute Level of 6.1 will be capable of running GPU-accelerated predictions (see the following table - https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus). Of these devices only the following devices have been internally tested for use with CUDA® Accelerated predictions:
- Nvidia 4xxx-Series of devices
- Nvidia A40 / A100 Cloud devices
