RESEARCH ABSTRACT
"US Mobile Wireless Backhaul 2011:
Cable joins Copper, Fiber and Microwave to Meet Edge and Middle Network Needs" is a detailed analysis of the US
mobile backhaul market and the emerging role of cable operators.
Particular strategic and technical strengths of cable operators and cable MSO plant that may translate into success in the US mobile wireless backhaul service market are detailed. The study also explains and enumerates drivers and inflection points that are now making mobile wireless backhaul an attractive opportunity for cable operators.
An analysis of the US backhaul market is given along with the success of the use of other technologies such as fiber, microwave and copper links. Driving trends in the mobile wireless and backhaul markets such as the overall growth of wireless subscribers, 3.5G and 4G subscribers, data device use, base stations per tower as well as base station, middle-of-network elements and tower deployments are detailed. Also analyzed are 3.5G and 4G base station deployments and capital expenditures as well as future trends in voice minutes, data ARPU and overall ARPU and the migration to 3.5G and 4G.
Figures are provided through year-end 2015 for cable operator mobile backhaul service revenues, base stations deployed and connected to backhaul by cable operators and the technology choice used to backhaul the base stations. In addition, the study also provides the number of backhaul links cable operators could provision for middle-of-the-network elements such as RNCs, BSCs and LTE Gateways and the annual and monthly revenues earned from providing backhaul to these mobile wireless middle network links.
Existing and future backhaul
capacities per base station by generation and per cell site are quantified
through 2015 as are mobile wireless carrier network and backhaul operating
expenditures.
