5G wireless is transforming business productivity and efficiency

For the past several years, telecom experts have discussed and touted the power of 5G Connectivity speeds and how it will revolutionize how we interact with our world. It has received so much attention because the potential benefits of drastically increased network speeds will have a global impact – from bolstering the capabilities of mobile devices for consumers to enabling faster, more efficient data-driven results to guide business decisions.

The Maturation of the 5G Market

We’ve seen the 5G market gain momentum in the last year or so, with internet service providers (ISPs) such as Verizon, ATT, and T-Mobile announcing nation-wide efforts in building and advancing their networks for 5G technology, as well as the recent spectrum bidding war and results that indicate who will be the early leaders in 5G.

Per our recent blog post – The Future of 5G Based on the Spectrum Bidding Results – more than a handful of telecom vendors bid more than $81 billion on 5G spectrum, with Verizon and AT&T coming out as clear winners with the most licenses purchased.

Consumer 5G and Enterprise 5G

As 5G seems to be full steam ahead, it’s important to note that the technology behind consumer 5G and enterprise 5G is very different and will require unique workflows that will impact availability and the adoption timeline. For example, consumer 5G has been ramping up for the last couple of years, with telecom providers like Verizon and AT&T putting significant dollars behind building up their network across the U.S. for customer use.
