4G – not 5G – will still rule in 2022, and that’s a good thing
- Thursday | 21st February, 2019
Cisco reckons that by 2022, 5G globally will reach about 400 million connections. The report forecasts 5G will account for almost 12% of global mobile data traffic by 2022, which breaks down to an average of 22GB a month. By contrast, 4G connections will average just 8GB a month. Meanwhile, 5G will account for just 3.4% of mobile connections in 2022 (that’s people and IoT connections, remember), the lowest percentage of every other wireless broadband technology – which puts all the “5G is here” hype into a rather jarring perspective. Indeed, the VNI white paper expects that some large-scale 5G rollouts won’t happen until after 2022.
