Abstract
In one aspect, a network component associated with a private cellular network includes at least one memory having computer-readable instructions stored therein and one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to execute the computer-readable instructions to receive, from a user equipment, a request to register with the private cellular network, the user equipment having a unique identifier; determine, at the network component or via cloud-based Evolved Packet Core (EPC) communicatively coupled to the network component, a home EPC associated with the user equipment using the unique identifier of the user equipment; and establish an IP Multimedia Service (IMS) Access Point Name (APN) connection between the user equipment and the home EPC associated with the user equipment, the IMS APN enabling a seamless connectivity of the user equipment to a terminal on a Private Branch Exchange (PBX) system using a native dialer of the user equipment.
