Small Cell Backhaul Global Market Report 2024

Description

Small cell backhaul refers to the technology and infrastructure essential for linking small cell base stations to a telecommunications provider's core network. These small cell base stations, characterized by low-power cellular radio access nodes, play a crucial role in enhancing wireless coverage and capacity, particularly in densely populated regions or areas where traditional macrocell towers are impractical. Small cell backhaul enables the seamless transmission of data, voice, and multimedia traffic between small cell base stations and the core network, ensuring efficient connectivity and communication services.

The primary services offered by small cell backhaul encompass network services, integration services, and professional services. Network services entail the diverse functions and capabilities provided by computer networks to enable communication, data exchange, resource sharing, and access to information among interconnected devices and users. This includes support for various access technology generations such as 2G (second generation), 3G (third generation), and 4G or LTE (fourth generation or long-term evolution), utilizing both wired and wireless transmission mediums. Technologies utilized for small cell backhaul encompass copper, fiber optics, millimeter wave, microwave, sub-6 GHz frequencies, and satellite communication, catering to both in-building and outdoor applications.

The growth observed during the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including the rapid adoption of small devices, escalating network congestion, evolving access technologies, increasing demands for speed and data volume, the necessity for improved network capacity, rising uptake of small cell backhaul solutions, and the expanding deployment of 5G networks.

The small cell backhaul market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.16 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26.1%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several factors, including the rapid penetration of 5G networks, escalating demand for high-speed and reliable wireless connectivity, the surge in data traffic, widespread deployment of small cell base stations, and the increasing demand for enhanced user experiences. Major trends expected in this period encompass ongoing technological innovation, advancements in wireless technologies, the implementation of advanced management and self-configuration capabilities, the adoption of edge computing solutions, and the integration of small cell and backhaul solutions to optimize network performance and efficiency.

The escalating demand for high-speed wireless connectivity is poised to propel the growth of the small cell backhaul market. High-speed connectivity denotes the ability of a wireless communication system to consistently deliver swift data transmission rates while maintaining a dependable and steady connection. This demand is spurred by factors such as the burgeoning reliance on digital technologies, the proliferation of connected devices, and the emergence of data-intensive applications. Small cell backhaul plays a pivotal role in bolstering network capacity, extending coverage, and facilitating seamless connectivity, all crucial for delivering high-speed wireless connectivity to users across urban and indoor environments, while also supporting the transition to advanced technologies such as 5G. For instance, in November 2023, HighSpeedInternet.com reported that the national average internet speed surged to 171.30 Mbps in 2023, marking a 44% increase from the 2022 average speed of 119.03 Mbps, underscoring the impetus behind the small cell backhaul market's growth trajectory.

Key players in the small cell backhaul market are spearheading the development of innovative technologies, such as 5G small cells, to augment network capacity and coverage across various in-building scenarios. 5G small cells, which are base stations catering to specific segments of a macrosite, are typically deployed in densely populated urban areas such as downtown districts, stadiums, transportation hubs, malls, and locations with high data capacity requirements. For example, in September 2022, Mavenir Systems Inc. introduced the E511, a 5G small cell designed to deliver high-capacity in-building standalone coverage. The E511 offers flexibility to support both distributed and centralized Open RAN architectures, making it a globally adaptable product with versatile deployment options. It has undergone lab trials across India, Europe, and the US, enhancing its suitability for diverse market requirements.

In November 2023, Aviat Networks Inc. completed the acquisition of NEC Corporation for $70 million, aiming to fortify its position as a leading wireless transport specialist and expand its product portfolio.
