Exploring new revenue opportunities in 5G

5G networks offer more bandwidth, better latency, and improved reliability. Those capabilities will result in new use cases and potential revenue opportunities for communications service providers (CSPs).

Unlike past generations of mobile network technology, 5G enables a new kind of network that is designed to connect virtually everything together — from machines to objects to devices. 5G also is intended to deliver multi-gigabit peak data speeds with very little delay and provide better capacity, improved availability and a more uniform user experience.

This better performing 5G network will empower new user experiences and drive new business opportunities. Just as 4G is credited in the development of the gig economy and the advent of appbased ondemand jobs such as Uber and DoorDash, 5G is expected to deliver many new applications and services.

This whitepaper delves into the potential new revenue opportunities that 5G networks will deliver as well as look at the steps CSPs need to take to get to the next stage of 5G. Systems integrators will play a role in that transformation by bringing an ecosystem of partners to the equation that can help accelerate the value of the 5G network.
