Telecoms, Mobile and Broadband Markets in the USA, 2019 - The USA Remains Among Leaders for 5G into 2019 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "USA
- Telecoms, Mobile and Broadband - Statistics and Analyses"
report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's
offering.

This report provides a comprehensive overview of trends and developments
in the USA's telecommunications market. The report analyses the
fixed-line, mobile and broadband sectors.

Growth in the US mobile subscriber base remains strong, with a
penetration rate of about 127%. Declining revenue from voice services is
compensated for by high growth in mobile data use, itself supported by
upgraded networks based on LTE technologies. Smartphone penetration is
also high, which had encouraged mobile data use among subscribers.

The major operators, led by AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile US, have
partnered with vendors to trial 5G technologies and services and will be
expanding their commercial services further into 2019 and into 2020. In
addition, operators are working on the potential of NB-IoT, LTE-U and
LTE-A technologies, in some respects as complementary technologies
supported by 5G.
