CAGR: calculations by EnerSys®

 

Building 5G networks is an enormous undertaking, requiring significant investment in both capital and time. The network operators are expected to grow 5G-related capital expenses at a 28% CAGR over 2020-25. 5G and 4G/LTE will co-exist as 5G coverage and capabilities expand. According to Gartner®, the investment in 5G is projected to overtake 4G sometime in 2021, as more capital pours into 5G and less into 4G/LTE. All global regions are projected to participate in the massive build-out.

The Benefits and Challenges of Deploying 5G Small Cells on the HFC Strand Network

Cable operators are deploying small cell radios through their existing HFC network infrastructure to offload data and associated costs of offering mobility services through a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) arrangement. Attaching small cell radios to the existing HFC network enables rapid deployment at a fraction of the cost and time as traditional deployment methods.
