With 5G FWA allowing larger bandwidth and low latency, high-speed internet can be more accessible across cities and rural areas alike.



The move to 5G now appears to be inevitable, as phone manufacturers ensure all models have 5G connective capabilities and telecom companies begin to install widespread networks. With 5G, faster and more accessible fixed wireless access (FWA) can be possible.
FWA is an alternative to fixed-line routers, and in a 5G world, acts as a 5G router to allow for internet access. In technical terms, 5G FWA is a medium of network access using New Radio (NR) in the millimeter wavelength, delivering high-speed broadband services comparable to or even better than current fixed-line DSL, cable, or fiber connections. While this technology may be most useful in emerging countries where fixed broadband is not yet prevalent, the speed and capacity of FWA will make it a competitor in developed markets as well. Both enterprises and residential communities are expected to benefit from FWA, especially in suburban and rural areas where fiber is expensive to lay and maintain. With a wide spread 5G FWA network, everyone can have access to high-speed wireless connection regardless of location.
What do people expect from 5G?
As 5G begins to replace 4G, consumers hold high expectations. Overall, people want more reliability and faster data speeds from their connection, and are hoping 5G will provide these improvements. According to PwC’s Promise of 5G survey, consumers are willing to pay up to $5.06 more on average for 5G compared to their current internet service if it ca ..
