In this 5G Guys podcast episode, Wayne and Dan welcome TJ Maan from Samsung to discuss Fixed Wireless Access (FWA). TJ explains what FWA is and its benefits over traditional wireline broadband delivery technologies, noting its speed, reliability, and usefulness in areas where DSL or fiber may face logistical issues. TJ also discusses how FWA has evolved over time, particularly with the rise of 5G and the involvement of tier-one operators such as Verizon and T-Mobile. They also discuss the possible role of regional operators in providing FWA and how FWA can help bridge the digital divide, especially with government funding initiatives. TJ also explains how Samsung participates in the FWA market and dives into the technological aspects that have allowed FWA to become more competitive and reliable.
