10 Telco Partners with Niral Networks to Deliver Private 5G Across Australia
Newcastle, Australia / Bengaluru, India • February 23, 2026 • 10 Telco, one of Australia’s leaders in telecoms engineering, fabrication, and rigging, today announced a strategic partnership with Niral Networks to deliver next-generation private 5G networks across Australia.
Under the partnership, 10 Telco will integrate NiralOS 5G Core and RAN into its telecommunications infrastructure projects, enabling Indigenous Communities, Councils, Agriculture, Mining, Utilities, and critical infrastructure operators to deploy secure, high‑performance private 5G networks tailored to their onsite needs.
NiralOS 5G Core is a cloud‑native, standards‑compliant solution that brings together essential 5G functions such as mobility management, authentication, session and policy management and a high‑performance user plane to support demanding industrial and enterprise use cases.
“Partnering with Niral Networks marks an exciting milestone for 10Telco as we bring cutting‑edge private 5G to clients in Indigenous communities and key industries where reliable connectivity is non‑negotiable,” said Heath Smith, Founder & CEO of 10Services Group. “With our 20+ years of hands‑on expertise in complex telecom builds and NiralOS’s flexible, cloud‑native private 5G technology, we can now deliver end‑to‑end solutions that prioritise safety, speed, and real value. Empowering Australian industries to thrive in the 5G era.”
With more than 20 years of experience, 10Telco specialises in “cradle‑to‑grave” telecommunications services, including investigation, site preparation, build, certification, maintenance, and decommissioning of infrastructure. Operating across New South Wales from bases in Newcastle, the Mid North Coast, New England and Orana, 10 Telco delivers a full turnkey solution, managed services, emergency break‑fix support, infrastructure construction, tower, road and building civil works, demolition, and custom telecommunications fabrication.
10 Telco’s team holds all applicable licences and qualifications for demolition, height safety, and asbestos removal and is accredited as licensed height safety installer, reflecting its longstanding commitment to safety and compliance on complex, high‑risk sites. As an Indigenous‑owned Telecommunications and Energy Infrastructure business and proud members of the NSW Indigenous Chamber of Commerce and Supply Nation, 10 Telco is built on values of Community, Integrity, Safety, high‑quality workmanship, transparency, and on‑time delivery while maintaining strong value for money for Tier 1 and Tier 2 clients across public and private sectors.
By choosing Niral Networks as its preferred platform for private 5G, 10 Telco can offer customers modern, software‑driven networks that are easier to deploy, manage, and scale than traditional connectivity solutions. NiralOS 5G Core, IMS, and Controller are designed to run on commercial off‑the‑shelf servers as bare‑metal, VNF, or cloud‑native functions, supporting key 5G interfaces and APIs for integration with third‑party applications, edge computing platforms, and partner RAN vendors. This flexibility makes it well‑suited to remote or complex environments—such as mountaintop sites and areas with challenging access and power conditions.
“We are thrilled to team up with 10 Telco, whose proven track record in Australia’s toughest telecom environments perfectly complements NiralOS 5G technology,” said Abhijit Chaudhary, Founder & CEO of Niral Networks. “This partnership will accelerate private 5G adoption for Indigenous communities, agriculture, and enterprises requiring low‑latency, secure networks unlocking innovations in automation, IoT, and edge AI while keeping deployments simple, scalable, and cost‑effective.”
The collaboration will focus on delivering end‑to‑end private 5G solutions, combining 10 Telco’s field expertise in tower construction and structural fabrication with Niral Networks’ software‑defined network technology. Customers will benefit from reliable wireless connectivity capable of supporting advanced applications such as real‑time monitoring, automation, video analytics, and IoT at the edge.
Both organisations view this partnership as a key milestone in accelerating private 5G adoption in Australia. Especially for those industries requiring resilient, secure and dedicated connectivity separate from public mobile networks. By aligning 10Telco’s boots-on‑the‑ground expertise with Niral Networks’ advanced 5G solutions, the companies aim to simplify deployment while setting new benchmarks in safety, performance and lifecycle support.
