At 37.4% CAGR, Middle East & Africa Private 5G Networks Market is Projected to be Worth US$ 1,152.29 Million by 2030, says Business Market Insights
According to Business Market Insights' research, the Middle East & Africa private 5G networks market was valued at US$ 90.47 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 1,152.29 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 37.4% from 2022 to 2030. Increasing demand for IoT and rising digitalization across enterprises are among the critical factor attributed to the Middle East & Africa private 5G networks market expansion.
IoT devices generate substantial amounts of data, which needs to be transmitted quickly and consistently to be useful. Private 5G networks are dedicated to a single organization or industry, which empowers them to offer higher bandwidth, lower latency, and more reliable connectivity for IoT devices. Many IoT applications require real-time data processing. For example, self-driving cars are required to receive and process sensor data in real-time to make safe driving decisions. Private 5G networks can support these applications by providing ultra-low latency and high reliability.
The adoption of massive IoT technologies such as NB-IoT and Cat-M is increasing significantly. For instance, in 2022, ~125 service providers have deployed or commercially launched NB-IoT networks, and nearly 56 have launched Cat-M, while 40 have deployed both technologies globally. By the end of 2022, the number of devices connected by these technologies got enhanced by added capabilities in the networks, enabling massive IoT to co-exist with 4G and 5G in frequency division duplex (FDD) bands via spectrum sharing. Additionally, in 2022, broadband IoT (4G/5G) connections reached 1.3 billion and connected the largest share of all cellular IoT devices. This segment mainly includes wide-area use cases that require higher throughput, lower latency, and larger data volumes than can be supported by Massive IoT devices. Private 5G networks can offer the bandwidth, latency, reliability, and security that IoT applications require. Therefore, the increasing requirement for IoT is creating a strong demand for private 5G networks. Industries across the globe are on the verge of adopting Industry 4.0 in order to completely transform their operations digitally. Private 5G connectivity plays an important role in this process. Many solution providers in the world have begun to commercialize their private 5G solutions for aiding the industrial sectors.
