Dublin, Sept. 24, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets ( http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/nhq8sm/us_mobile ) has announced the addition of the "US Mobile Backhaul 2013: Broadband Wireless Realized" report to their offering.
US Mobile Backhaul 2013: Broadband Wireless Realized, assesses and details the market for United States mobile wireless backhaul services and products through 2017.
The report provides data and analysis that capture the current and expected future trends in the mobile backhaul services market. In doing so it provides substantial scrutiny of key drivers such as network technology, subscriber trends, economic conditions and mobile and backhaul carrier dynamics.
Key supporting data points are quantified through 2017 including mobile subscribers, 3.5G/4G subscribers, total and data ARPU, mobile base station deployments, subscribers per base station and base station deployments by generation. Also enumerated are deployments of outdoor distributed antenna systems (DASs), base station sites, average base station deployments per site and mobile wireless network switch deployments.
Metrics specific to backhaul are also emphasized. Tables are provided through 2017 that quantify backhaul lines by capacity, physical technology and transport mode. Backhaul capacity used per cell site and capacity per switch are segmented as well.
US wireless operator total network operating and backhaul operating expenditures are quantified and articulated per subscriber. Current and projected backhaul market share by the type of carrier (RBOC/ILEC, MSO and CLEC) is included. Total tower rental revenues are provided in total and by per deployed base station.
