Fixed LTE, also known as Fixed Wireless Access (FWA), refers to a type of broadband Internet service where connections are provided using wireless cellular network technology rather than traditional wireline methods such as DSL, cable, or fiber optics. Fixed LTE typically utilizes 4G LTE technology to deliver high-speed internet to residential and business customers, particularly in areas where other forms of broadband are limited or cost-prohibitive to install. It involves the use of an LTE modem or router at the customer's premises, which communicates with the nearest cellular base station, thereby providing an internet connection. With the advent of 5G technology, the Fixed LTE market is evolving. 5G FWA promises to offer much higher speeds, lower latency, and greater capacity, expanding the potential for fixed wireless services to support more bandwidth-intensive applications and to compete more directly with traditional broadband services. While 4G has laid the groundwork for FWA, 5G is expected to drive greater adoption and innovation in the provision of fixed wireless services. Several companies participate in the Fixed LTE market, providing equipment, technology, and services. Notable players include Verizon, with its LTE Home Internet service; AT&T, which offers Fixed Wireless Internet; T-Mobile, which has been expanding its Home Internet service; and Nokia, which supplies FWA solutions to service providers. Qualcomm is another key player, developing chipsets that enable Fixed LTE devices. Huawei and Ericsson also contribute to the market, offering a range of products and services to Show Less Read more
