5G and the Future of Cellular Networks – Episode 16 of the Connect This! Show

On Episode 16 of the Connect This! show, co-hosts Christopher and Travis Carter (USI Fiber) are joined by Sascha Segan (lead mobile analyst at PCMag.com) and Virgilio Fiorese (formerly of Ericsson, currently Senior Sales Director, Mavenir) to dig into 5G and the next generation of cellular networks to try and divorce the hype from the current and coming reality.  Chris, Travis, Sascha, and Virgilio talk about whether ordinary Americans should care about 5G today (for either their home or mobile connection), the regulatory and deployment components of a 5G rollout, how T-Mobile’s 5G Home Internet service is working for users right now, 5G marketing, and the difference between an intelligently designed Fiber-to-the-Premises build with Wi-Fi 6 for fixed-place users.
