5G Fixed Wireless Gains Blueprint for Multi-Tenant Broadband

The standard is designed to deliver high-speed internet in locations that are difficult or costly to serve with fiber.

A 32-page report explains how a single rooftop 5G receiver can bring broadband to every unit in a building by using its existing wiring, such as coaxial or telephone cables.
