Are Fixed and Wi-Fi Actually Losing Ground to Mobile?

 ARE FIXED AND WI-FI ACTUALLY LOSING GROUND TO MOBILE?


✅ The Tefficient 🚥 article discusses the competition between fixed and mobile internet, and how 5G has impacted their usage.
✅ 5G has encouraged mobile network operators (MNOs) to offer fixed wireless access (FWA) services.
✅ FWA can be a substitute for traditional fixed broadband connections like DSL and cable.
✅ However, FWA does not replace Wi-Fi, as the FWA router converts 5G into Wi-Fi for home devices.
✅ Although 5G has indirectly caused fixed internet to lose some of its dominance to mobile, Wi-Fi remains the primary interface for home devices.

What the chart says?

☑️ Just one country, Saudi Arabia, is the mobile data traffic larger than the fixed data traffic.
☑️ Six countries, Croatia, Austria, Bahrain, Finland, Malaysia and Saudi Arabia, have a different characteristic. Here fixed just represents in between 45% and 68% of the total data traffic of a country. Very high average mobile data usage – they are all in the top 7 of the world (of 49).

Malaysia set to roll out second 5G wholesale network

Malaysia set to roll out second 5G wholesale network The current state of Digital Nasional Berhad's (DNB) leadership does differ from its initial structure. As of today, January 15, 2024: No Chairman: The position of Chairman has been vacant since April 2023, following the resignation of the previous chairman. Two Board Members: Currently, DNB has only two remaining board members. This is significantly smaller than the planned size of the board, which was initially set at seven members. This situation has raised concerns about potential governance issues and a lack of strong leadership at DNB. Some stakeholders argue that the absence of a full board and chairman could hinder the decision-making process and negatively impact the rollout of 5G infrastructure in Malaysia. The government has acknowledged these concerns and has assured the public that they are actively searching for qualified candidates to fill the vacant positions. However, there is no official...

Fewer 5G SA deployments in 2023 - is it still a priority for MNOs?

Fewer 5G SA deployments in 2023 - is it still a priority for MNOs? New research shows a decline in 5G Standalone (SA) deployments compared to 2022, prompting the question: Is 5G SA losing its shine for mobile network operators (MNOs)? The answer is nuanced and varies by market. Here's why: Why 5G SA might be losing momentum: 1. Cost: Implementing 5G SA requires building a dedicated network infrastructure, unlike cost-effective 5G Non-Standalone (NSA) that leverages existing 4G infrastructure. 2. Complexity: Building a robust SA network is resource-intensive and demands careful planning. 3. Customer readiness: Not all markets are at a stage where advanced 5G SA features like VoNR, network slicing, and edge computing are commercially viable. Challenges in the ecosystem: 1. Limited UE support: The current number of UEs with proper 5G SA capabilities is still scarce, making it difficult for MNOs to justify widespread network upgrades ju...
