Strategic Acquisition Enhancing Verizon's Wireless Broadband Capabilities
In October 2025, Verizon Communications Inc., a major US wireless broadband provider, acquired Starry Internet. The financial terms were undisclosed. This acquisition aims to strengthen Verizon's fixed wireless broadband offerings, particularly in urban multi-dwelling units (MDUs). Starry Internet, known for its use of millimeter wave (mmWave) technology, provides high-speed internet to urban communities and MDUs. Verizon intends to leverage Starry's expertise in mmWave to enhance its wireless broadband services on a global scale.

Emerging Trends Transforming the Wireless Broadband CPE Industry
Leading market players are concentrating on developing advanced technological solutions, especially 5G fixed wireless access (FWA) devices, to improve connectivity speed, extend network coverage, and satisfy the surging demand for high-speed internet. 5G FWA devices enable broadband delivery via cellular networks without the need for traditional wired infrastructure, providing a flexible and scalable solution.
For example, in July 2024, Nokia Corporation introduced new 5G FWA products including the FastMile 5G16-B outdoor receiver and the FastMile Gateway 12 indoor gateway. The outdoor receiver boasts high-gain antennas, supports four-carrier aggregation, and offers up to 300 MHz bandwidth to deliver strong performance even in challenging signal areas. The indoor gateway increases coverage and capacity by up to 35%, supports up to 200 MHz of spectrum, and features tri-band Wi-Fi 7 technology for seamless, high-speed connectivity throughout homes. Both devices operate across multiple 4G and 5G bands, including Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS), allowing network operators to offer reliable broadband services in urban, suburban, and rural environments.

Comprehensive Segmentation of the Wireless Broadband Customer Premises Equipment Market
The wireless broadband CPE market is categorized by several dimensions:
1) Type: Fixed Wireless Customer Premises Equipment (CPE), Mobile Wireless Customer Premises Equipment (CPE), and Satellite Customer Premises Equipment (CPE).
2) Technology: 4G Long-Term Evolution (LTE) CPEs, 5G CPEs, and Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) CPEs.
3) Distribution Channel: Online and Offline sales.
4) End-User: Residential, Commercial, Industrial, Government, and Educational sectors.
