AN INDUSTRY CHALLENGED CONNECTING TOMORROW SEIZING THE OPPORTUNITY 3G and 4G Facilities MUST UPGRADE to 4G LTE FIRST! 4G LTE Advanced networks coexist with 5G but latent 3G networks are set to “sunset’ and must transition to 4G LTE / Advanced AT&T and Verizon have already indicated they will shut down 3G networks by 2022 (IEEE Communications Society, February 2019) which indicates they must upgrade all networks to 4G and 4G LTE The demand for existing network upgrades to 4G LTE is greater than the CAPEX budgeted to transition to 5G 7 $4 . 7 BILLIO N Is the estimated budget by carriers to upgrade systems to 5G $1 8 B ILLIO N The same carriers have budgeted to upgrade 3G and 4G to 4G LTE needed to eventually transition to 5G Compared to the… THE MARKET OPPORTUNITY Installers must have the technologies to upgrade latent networks to 4G LTE first, before continuing the transition to 5G. The greatest portion of projects will be allocated to companies who have the combination of 4G LTE upgrade capabilities, 5G millimeter wave technology and critical backhaul systems. International markets with more latent networks are under the greatest pressure to upgrade their networks to support 5G and IoT devices.
