5G FWA for enterprise Market overview
![5G FWA for entreprise by Teldat 5G FWA for entreprise by Teldat](/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/5G-FWA-for-entreprise-by-Teldat.webp)
The global 5G services market is expected to grow from US$53b in 2020 to US$249b in 2026. Factors driving the growth include adoption of edge computing and cloud communications, and content streaming services for applications like online meetings. For 5G fixed wireless access (FWA) in particular, an ABI Devices Market Report forecasts a CAGR of 48% over the next few years, to ship 11.7m units in 2025
While evolution through 2G, 3G, 4G and LTE has broken many important boundaries, the next leap – to 5G – is far more dramatic. 5G’s new technologies, spectrum and frequencies give it higher speeds, low latency, capacity for more connected devices, less interference and better efficiency.
With these advantages, 5G can enable ultra high speed fixed wireless access (FWA) services to support enterprise applications where fiber is prohibitively expensive to lay and maintain – due to remoteness, inaccessibility, or other reasons.
5G FWA means that enterprises anywhere can access the cloud to run today’s powerful, but bandwidth-hungry applications, even without cabled copper or fiber connections.
What are the important points related to Teldat´s 5G FWA for enterprise?
5G releases full FWA broadband potential
While FWA is well-established, LTE FWA implementations cannot compete well against high-speed fixed broadband services. 5G solves this, as 5G FWA for enterprise can provide service bandwidth capacity comparable to fiber.
Standalone delivers full 5G capabilities
Standalone (SA) 5G allows completely independent 5G service operation with no 4G involvement. SA holds great promise as an innovative IT solution, yet few networks worldwide are yet in planning or deployed.
Non Standalone provides easy entry to 5G
Non Standalone (NSA) 5G allows higher speed connectivity than 4G, while using existing network infrastructure investment. This makes NSA attractive to operators seeking to gain early entry into 5G service provision, while minimizing cost and risk.
Easy transition drives long-term success
Users will typically want to deploy NSA first, for early entry and competitive edge, then migrate to SA when available to enjoy full 5G potential. Investing in equipment with full NSA/SA compatibility is critical to this strategy’s success.
Understanding 5G FWA for enterprise
Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) is not new; it enables wireless broadband to businesses without fiber access. However, current LTE FWA implementations cannot compete well against high-speed fixed broadband services.
By contrast, 5G-Sub 6GHz FWA can quickly and economically deliver an alternative to wired broadband. Millimeter wavelength 5G FWA for enterprise will really provide service bandwidth capacity comparable to fiber.
However, a complete, futureproof 5G FWA for enterprise service must support 5G’s two deployment options – Non Stand Alone (NSA) and Stand Alone (SA).
NSA anchors 5G Radio Network control signaling to the 4G Core, while SA connects the 5G Radio directly to the 5G core network. NSA is a 5G service that is built over an existing 4G network. Conversely, SA allows completely independent 5G service operation without any interaction with an existing 4G core.
NSA allows high speed connectivity to 5G-enabled devices, while leveraging existing network infrastructure investment. SA, however, allows operators to launch new enterprise 5G services.
It is also a fully virtualized, cloud native architecture (CAN), allowing new ways to develop, deploy and manage services. Other benefits include higher efficiency, lower operating costs, and easier innovation.
NSA is enabled by E-UTRA-NR Dual Connectivity (EN-DC), where user equipment connects to an LTE enodeB master node and a 5G gnodeB secondary node.
LTE/5G integration is further boosted by Dynamic Spectrum Sharing (DSS), a new antenna technology that allows LTE and 5G in the same frequency band, greatly simplifying 5G expansion.
The NSA/SA market will continually change: early adopters are using NSA for fast, easy, lower-cost market entry, but migration to SA will be inevitable to fully exploit 5G’s advantages. Both operators and users will benefit from technology that provides an easy transition from NSA to SA.
5G FWA Solutions and Teldat products for enterprise & organizations
Teldat provides futureproof 5G FWA products for diverse markets and customers.
The background
Enterprise users today need competitive IT technology running high-performance applications over broadband, with access to enterprise cloud services. However, many enterprises have branch offices in locations inaccessible to fiber or cable installations.

End users can access broadband quickly, without waiting for a cable or fiber infrastructure. They can access enterprise services with professional software requirements and high performance.
Use cases
Small sites in rural areas
Rural small sites & branch offices with the same high performance internet access as their urban and central office counterparts.
Mobile sites
Mobile offices’ frequent relocation makes permanent cabling impractical, but require access for cloud connectivity to applications & HQ.
Branch & small site locations in rural areas
Giving rural branch offices and organizational small sites the same high performance internet access as their urban and central office counterparts.
Challenge
Most large commercial, banking, government or other organizations have multiple sites – from central headquarters, large city, and major town locations to more remote and rural settings.
As these organizations leverage more powerful, data hungry applications, they run these on the cloud using SD-WAN networks. This provides a professionally-managed, powerful, futureproof, and secure IT resource.
However, while the larger locations enjoy full-performance cabled fiber connectivity, many rural sites are less fortunate – their service providers will not install fiber if it is uneconomical to do so.
Yet a solution is available to solve the user issue and generate new service provider revenue.
Solution
As the ultimate SD-WAN edge for branch offices, the Teldat M10-Smart-5G corporate router solves the remote sites’ connectivity issues. It is the only enterprise router that allows service providers to offer a high speed 5G FWA for enterprise service without cables.

Mobile sites
Mobile offices’ frequent relocation makes permanent cabling installation impractical.
Challenge
Large-scale security companies have increasing requirements to set up sophisticated ‘mobile office’ bases at major sports or music events. While temporary, these offices still need transparent connection to HQ, and full speed access to modern applications running on cloud-based SD-WAN infrastructures.
Additionally, they must support other security-specific applications like live video surveillance feeds, and security at ticketing machines, as well as those related to Coronavirus monitoring and safety management. Logging of data for future learning and identification of hot spots, and sharing of situation awareness with emergency services is also important.

The Teldat M10-Smart-5G is the only available 5G FWA corporate router for enterprise offering 5G/4G validated by most service providers for broadband connectivity. Teldat M10-Smart-5G allows faster broadband setup than other corporate WAN solutions.
Civil works not permitted or impracticable
Many locations have heritage, environmental or legal barriers to cable installation.
Challenge
Large organizations can have some offices at locations in towns or cities of any size where xDSL services are being dismantled or the new copper/fiber cable connectivity is not possible. This may be because the legal, environmental, or geographical barriers are too great for service providers to overcome. Alternatively, civil works, including cable laying, may simply not be permitted.
For example, a town may have UNESCO World Heritage status , with restrictions in place to prevent any risk to its historic buildings or environment. Local environmental issues, like being in a river floodplain, can also apply. Other limitations can arise from site boundaries and conditions, neighboring properties, site access and rights of way.
Solution
Many widely diverse enterprises and organizations have local branches in such restricted areas; police stations, banks and large building societies for some examples. However, they all require high speed connectivity to their HQ’s cloud-based SD-LAN networks.
This can be provided easily by installing an Teldat M10-Smart-5G; the router will provide uninterrupted 5G FWA for enterprise connectivity as the service provider progresses through 4G/LTE to 5G NSA and eventually 5G SA fixed wireless access (FWA).
The Teldat M10-Smart-5G’s support of both FWA and fiber means it can be deployed as a single solution across both cabled and FWA locations – simplifying stock management and reducing costs.
Why Teldat?
With Teldat’s M10 Smart-5G solution, there is no problem in having broadband wherever it is required and especially in urban centers, allowing a very short start-up time compared to other solutions that require civil works.
