Today’s MH Market Spotlight Report –
Let’s tee up the CNBC pull-quotes and video re: 5G.
It’s been over decade since smartphones began to transform how Americans access the internet and communicate. It would be hard to imagine for most professionals to give up their web-connected smart devices.
Businesses with websites know that online searches via smartphones have surged in recent years. Search Engine Land says “According to official Google statements, more than 50 percent of search queries globally now come from mobile devices.”
That sets the stage for some of the reasons why 5G is a big deal for every business that has any ties to the internet.
With that backdrop, let’s dip into what CNBC had to say about the Friday afternoon announcements.
The 45th president and FCC commissioner made several announcements today to accelerate 5G deployment in the U.S.
- President Donald Trump and the FCC on Friday announced several initiatives to spur 5G network growth in the U.S.
- “The race to 5G is on and America must win,” President Trump said, noting that 92 5G markets will be ready by the end of the year, outpacing South Korea, which is on pace to have 48 markets live by the end of 2019.
- “It’s [a] race our great companies are now involved in,” President Trump said. “According to some estimates, the wireless industry plans to invest $275 billion in 5G networks, creating 3 million American jobs quickly, and adding $500 billion to our economy.”
- Unlike 4G LTE, which mainly targeted mobile phones, tablets and computers, 5G is also expected to enable more reliable connections on self-driving vehicles that will need a constant data connection, and smart cities that use “Internet of Things” devices, such as connected street lamps, traffic lights and more.
- AT&Tand Verizon already have fledgling 5G networks in the United States, and T-Mobile and Sprint plan to activate their networks later in 2019. Only one phone from Motorola, offered on Verizon, supports 5G in the U.S. right now.
- “The FCC aims to create a $20.4 billion Rural Digital Opportunity fund,” to “extend high-speed broadband to up to 4 million homes and high-speed businesses in rural America,” FCC chairman Ajit Pai said.
- “To accelerate and incentivize these investments, my administration is freeing up as much wireless spectrum as needed,” President Trump said. ”[We’re] removing regularity barriers to the buildout of networks. The FCC is taking very bold action, bolder than they’ve ever taken before, to make wireless spectrum available.”
Pai addressed the crackdown on Huawei’s equipment for use in 5G networks across the U.S. and Europe.
- “We believe that the security and reliability of 5G is absolutely important, not just as a matter of national competitiveness, but also as a matter of national security,” Pai told CNBC’s Eamon Javers. “I have been very encouraged by my conversations with our European allies all across the continent about the importance of security and 5G networks. The need to have a framework to understand the risk profile of certain equipment and services is something most allies recognize and it’s just a collaborative process of making sure that we have a framework that works for everybody.”
