Future-proof design makes licensed 5G FWA a standout solution for businessFor businesses dependent on connectivity for mission-critical systems, multiple links – and the quality of those links – are essential considerations.
“Fibre networks are struggling due to theft, vandalism and cable cuts, as well as due to load-shedding. This is also one of our biggest headaches as this affects our backhauls. For redundancy, you need more than one link, but you can’t just throw in three fibre links as this would be too expensive,” he says.
“Globally, fixed wireless – particularly licensed fixed wireless – is emerging as a more reliable option than fibre, which is why it is the top choice for redundancy. For example, the New York borough of Manhattan has the highest density of last mile wireless, even though it also has highest fibre density, because people understand you need one fibre cable, with redundancy in the form of wireless.
When we built our high-capacity 28GHz network in 2016, we over-engineered the network for performance and reliability,” he says. “Because it’s not designed for consumer services, there is no contention. We won’t overload these networks – if we feel we are stretching it too far, we will overlay it with a new sector, so that our service remains uniform and users enjoy a far better experience.”
