In the GCC alone, 90% of all data traffic is predicted to be carried over 5G networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) powered by 5G technology is also increasingly being adopted, growing from 11% in 2022 to 38% by 2029. This surge in FWA adoption is driven by the need for faster internet speeds and lower latency, particularly in underserved or remote areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mikko Lavanti, Senior Vice President for Mobile Networks, MEA at Nokia, said:<\/strong> \u201cThe adoption of 5G is increasingly important for countries across MEA to meet the rising demand for data services. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This transition accelerates digital transformation while allowing CSPs to unlock new revenue opportunities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nokia\u2019s services empower CSPs to unlock the full potential of their networks, delivering advanced connectivity solutions that are critical for the region\u2019s development.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>5G adoption in MEA expected to reach one in four subscriptions by 2029, highlighting its critical role in future connectivity towards digital transformation. 5G subscriptions in MEA expected to reach 519 million by 2029, representing 23% of total mobile connections.
