Ericsson’s thought leadership articles is presenting solutions that can be adopted to bridge the connection deficit in Africa.

The global digital divide persists, with around 1 billion households without fixed broadband, and projections indicating that approximately 30% of households worldwide may still lack broadband connectivity by 2028, according to an Ericsson analysis. At the same time, 3GPP technologies, including LTE and 5G, are poised to offer extensive coverage, reaching over 95% of households globally for LTE and around 85% for 5G by 2028.

A notable example of how FWA can be utilized to enable digital inclusion – beyond home connectivity – is our recent joint initiative with FREE Senegal, in which several schools will be connected with Fixed Wireless Access technology, and will also be provided with laptops, learning content, and teacher training to support the development of the ecosystem.

Speed-based FWA is where we believe the communication service providers should focus more. This approach focuses on outfitting homes with wide-area wireless-capable devices – either outdoor-mounted on roofs/walls or indoor units with advanced antennas. Managed fixed broadband, remote setup, and fault handling using standard protocols. Custom price plans, emphasizing data rates, mirror fixed broadband offerings.
