Widely viewed as the most significant development in enterprise networking since the introduction of Wi-Fi, the FCC recently authorized the full use of a new wireless spectrum for LTE and 5G cellular wireless technology without expensive licensing fees and restrictions. The move will most likely transform the enterprise wireless market for decades and represents a large leap in the FCC’s race to 5G.
Armed with this new spectrum and technology to exploit it, companies are actively looking to build their own private LTE/5G private networks to support business-critical applications that can no longer tolerate the deficiencies inherent in conventional Wi-Fi technology.
