Public safety 5G market to reach $6.3 billion by 2028, says SNS Telecom & IT
Spending on mobile broadband for public safety is set to grow steadily over the next few years. According to a new SNS Telecom & IT research report, annual global investment in LTE and 5G NR-based public safety broadband infrastructure and devices is expected to exceed $6.3 billion by 2028.
These networks underpin communications for emergency services and other public safety agencies, replacing or supplementing legacy radio systems with higher-capacity, data-focused connections. The forecast signals continuing demand from governments and operators for dedicated or priority broadband services to support critical communications.
