Educational session at the Test and Measurement Forum, presented by RCR Wireless News
5G was built to deliver ultra-fast speeds, low latency and massive connectivity. But in practice, real-world deployments—especially fixed wireless access (FWA) and private wireless—have exposed serious transport limitations. Congested network pipes and rising RF interference are making it harder to meet 5G’s full potential.
Join EXFO’s Joey Villamil and Verizon's Mark Watts for a deep dive into what’s really happening behind the scenes.
Key takeaways:
- How 5G services are transforming transport expectations
- Why legacy carrier Ethernet backhaul falls short
- What a next-gen transport network really requires
