Chris Pearson, President of 5G Americas, said: “The advancement of 5G continues throughout the Americas, with more spectrum, coverage and use. We are entering an era of innovation with an expansive 5G ecosystem that is learning how to harness the technical capabilities of this great technology.”
The most recent data from Omdia suggests that 5G connections globally showed a year-on-year increase to the second quarter of 2022 of 112 percent from 383 million to 813 million.
Global 5G connections are projected to accelerate again in 2023 to approach 2 billion and reach 5.9 billion by the end of 2027.
The projection for Latin America and the Caribbean is that they will have 22 million 5G connections by the end of 2022, and 398 million by 2027.
Comparatively, 4G LTE is expected to remain strong in Latin America and the Caribbean until the end of 2022.
North America had a total of 99 million 5G connections and 502 million LTE connections at the end of the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 20.7 percent from the first quarter of 2022.
According to Jose Otero, Vice President for the Caribbean and Latin America of 5G Americas: “The deployment and adoption of 5G is advancing in Latin America. Governments will need to continue working with industry to streamline processes and provide more radio spectrum to operators in the region. Latin America is an industrial hub of global importance and 5G will bring economic and social benefits to everyone in the region.”
