According to Kashif Hussain, director of marketing at VIAVI Solutions, 5G adoption won’t happen to the desired extent until the right devices are in place. Fortunately, there appears to be a great deal of global momentum behind 5G device development and deployment.
Ericsson’s Peter Linder, head of 5G marketing in North America, agreed with that assessment, offering, “There is so much momentum on the device and terminal side, so things are coming to market in more variants on the device side.”
He added that the supply side of the cellular ecosystem is “gearing up in a much bigger way” than the industry has experience with previous generations of connectivity.
