Verizon CFO Matthew Ellis said that Verizon 5G is working better than expected in test markets, which has led Verizon to deploy 5G fixed wireless in up to 5 US markets. “The distance that we see that you can get over gigabit speeds, north of 2,000 feet, is part of the economics of the business case.” With the technology working without the need for direct line of sight, the technology is working on up to 20 floor buildings, not just small offices with sight to the tower. 5G from Verizon is coming, and is shaping up to be a promising internet alternative for businesses.
