Demand for high-speed internet is increasing worldwide at an exponential rate. The global market for mobile data traffic is expected to reach 603.5 million terabytes per month by 2030 (Research and Markets). This rise in demand is also driving a need for wide network coverage and more comprehensive connectivity options with reduced power consumption, especially in deep urban and remote rural communities: problems that Fixed Wireless Access is helping to solve.
FWA technology holds significant value to consumers and businesses to meet increasing demand. It offers a solution to deliver high-speed internet services without relying on physical fiber connections. The adoption of advanced technologies like IoT and 5G millimeter-wave further enhances FWA's capability and appeal. It enables reduced power consumption, wide network coverage, and low latency for coverage expansion.
Fixed Wireless services accounted for 90% of net broadband additions in 2022 compared to 20% in 2021. FWA's proven diverse regional performance capabilities across urban, suburban, and rural areas have demonstrated the ability to address network densification while meeting diverse customer demands. Its download speeds range from 100 to 300 Mbps, with peak speeds reaching 1,000 Mbps. FWA has proven to be a reliable and affordable tool for various stakeholders, including MNOs, ISPs, utility companies, and businesses.
