Is 5G really here? To hear operators tell the story, you would certainly think so. They advertise "nationwide 5G coverage" and "the 5G future is here," but how accurate it that? One British company even advertised "Real 5G" but had to remove the placements because of false advertising.
The truth is that most of the rollouts until now have been 4G Evolved, based on 5G principles, but using existing 4G infrastructure. When an operator claims "nationwide coverage," it is usually referring to remote areas where 4G service was weak to begin with.
But make no mistake... 5G is right around the corner. The same operators who have relied on their 4G backbone to support the initial "5G" rollouts are also investing heavily in building their new 5G infrastructure. And that's where Ethernity comes in... we're ready to provide open, disaggregated solutions that can enable and accelerate the 5G networks so that when true 5G does penetrate the marketplace with mass deployments, the operators will be able offer efficient, high-performance networks.
