5G Base Station Equipment Market - Forecasts from 2025 to 2030

The 5G base station equipment market is estimated to reach US$52.733 billion by 2030 from US$29.865 billion in 2025, growing at a CAGR of 12.04%.

5G base stations form the backbone of next-generation wireless networks, enabling enhanced bandwidth, ultra-low latency, and broader coverage to support rising connectivity demands. Driven by surging smartphone adoption (78% global mobile ownership in 2023, per ITU) and escalating internet usage, the market is poised for robust growth. Urban areas, where 81% of populations use the internet (vs. 50% in rural regions), are key deployment hubs, fueled by denser network requirements and rapid urbanization.

Key Growth Drivers

• Urbanization & Internet Penetration: Global urban populations grew from 4.46 billion (2021) to 4.61 billion (2023), intensifying demand for high-speed connectivity. Europe leads in internet adoption (92%), followed by the Americas (90%) and Asia-Pacific (80%).
• Smartphone & Data Demand: Rising mobile device usage for internet access, particularly in emerging economies, necessitates 5G infrastructure upgrades to manage traffic and user expectations.

Geographical Insights

• Asia-Pacific dominates growth, led by India's aggressive 5G rollout. The country achieved 90% 5G coverage in 2023, supported by government initiatives like indigenous telecom development funds, spectrum auctions, and test beds. India's 5G sector is projected to contribute $455 billion to its economy by 2024.
• Mobile-First Trends: With 82% of India's internet access via mobile devices, the region exemplifies the link between smartphone dependency and 5G infrastructure demand.

Future Outlook

Government policies, such as India's 2030 5G roadmap, and global urbanization trends will continue to drive investments in base station equipment. This infrastructure is critical to meeting the dual demands of expanding connectivity and supporting next-gen applications like IoT and smart cities.
