The 5G Podcast with Fexingo: Wireless Networks, Carriers, and Mobile Infrastructure

Business EN ↓ 104 episodes

Lucas and Luna examine the business and technology of 5G — the network architecture, carrier strategies, spectrum auctions, and infrastructure buildout that underpin next-generation wireless. Each episode picks a single angle: how a carrier like Verizon or T-Mobile is deploying millimeter-wave vs. mid-band spectrum, the financials of tower-REITs like American Tower and Crown Castle, or the supply-chain dynamics behind radio equipment from Ericsson, Nokia, and Samsung. They analyze FCC auction results, compare capex plans across operators, and break down the implications of Open RAN and network...

Why Cellular IoT Is About to Overtake Wi-Fi for Low-Power Devices 22.05.2026

Episode 4 of The 5G Podcast digs into a quiet shift that could redefine mobile infrastructure: cellular IoT is now cheaper and more energy-efficient than Wi-Fi for millions of low-bandwidth devices. Lucas and Luna break down the numbers behind this crossover — specifically the cost-per-bit improvements in LTE-M and NB-IoT modules — and look at why carriers like T-Mobile are betting big on massive...

How Fixed Wireless Access Is Reshaping Broadband 21.05.2026

In this episode of The 5G Podcast, Lucas and Luna dive into fixed wireless access (FWA) — the quietest revolution in broadband. They explore how T-Mobile and Verizon are using 5G to deliver home internet to over 10 million subscribers combined, challenging cable incumbents like Comcast and Charter. Lucas breaks down the economics: FWA costs carriers less than fiber to deploy, especially in suburba...

Why Private 5G Networks Are Growing Faster Than Public Ones 21.05.2026

In this episode of The 5G Podcast, Lucas and Luna explore the rapid rise of private 5G networks—dedicated cellular infrastructure deployed by factories, warehouses, ports, and campuses. They dive into the numbers: by mid-2026, over 1,200 private 5G networks are live globally, up from fewer than 200 in 2023. The conversation focuses on why companies like Bosch and Volkswagen are building their own...

T-Mobile and the Race for Mid-Band Spectrum 19.05.2026

In the debut episode of The 5G Podcast, Lucas and Luna dig into the most consequential number in wireless right now: 2.5 gigahertz. That's the mid-band spectrum T-Mobile scooped up from Sprint — and why it now covers 90 percent of the country with its 'Ultra Capacity' 5G. We explain why mid-band matters more than millimeter wave or low-band for real-world speeds, how Verizon and AT&T are scramblin...
