A recent ABI Research study highlights disappointing trends in private wireless deployments in the U.S., showing an 11% decline in initial private 5G rollouts from last year. This report, based on feedback from 458 manufacturing decision-makers, contrasts with more favorable reports from other countries like Germany and Malaysia. Factors such as budgeting issues and geopolitical tensions are cited as reasons for the downturn, with ABI analysts advising stakeholders to focus on the medium-term benefits of private wireless technology.
