5G Network Infrastructure Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Component (RAN, 5G Core), By Band (Sub-6 GHz, MmWave), By Deployment (Standalone, Non- Standalone), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2024 To 2029

5G Network Infrastructure Market Size:

The 5G network infrastructure market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 15.40% over the forecast period, increasing from US$66.328 billion in 2025 to US$135.740 billion by 2030.

A 5G network infrastructure is composed of several parts and technologies that operate in tandem with each other for 5G network connections. The top 5G networks have many advantages to users with their fast speed and low latency. The main cause for the increasing expansion of the 5G mobile network market is the expanding use of smart controls around the world. It is becoming increasingly vital for high-speed Internet as cell phones are taking over the whole world.

Further, the need for high-speed instant connections is going up with the acceptance of mobile phones across the global markets. Also, this is further supported by another factor due to increasing adoption of 5G technology.

5G Network Infrastructure Market Growth Drivers:

• The growing adoption of the 5g network is accelerating the demand in the market

This is the most significant factor that will drive the growth of the global 5G network infrastructure market during the forecasted period. As the usage of 5G network solutions continues to increase, the low-speed and low-latency internet technology will also gain traction in the market.

Besides, the global adoption 5G network adoption has seen significant growth in the recent few years. The major factor increasing the adoption rate of the 5G network technology is the increasing adoption of IoT devices and growing ownership of smartphones. For example, the International Telecommunication Union report indicated that in 2021, adoption of the 5G technology was reported to be 18%, which in 2022 became 31% and in 2023, it hit 38%. The agency continued to point out that the adoption of 5G in Europe in 2023 was reported at 68%. After this, the second region that registered an adoption rate for 5G was the Americas, with a reported 59% in 2023. The adoption of 5G in Asia Pacific and Arab states is recorded at 42% and 12% respectively.

• Network slicing to make way for 5g network adoption is anticipated to increase the market demand

Network slicing divides a single network connection into multiple virtual connections through network virtualization on one side while offering different resource volumes to different types of traffic on the other. Therefore, network slicing can help telecom vendors and mobile operators peel off parts of their networks to meet specific customer use cases that might include connected cars, smart homes, smart factories for the Internet of Things, or smart energy grids, among others. Network slicing is one of the tools used by providers aimed at addressing varied needs of businesses. This outlines how virtually deploying a dedicated network slice would be possible in meeting different use cases or customer service requirements. Health facilities, for example, will need very different networks to agriculture. Moreover, network slicing enhances the security of critical services, as network slices are rendered dependable and easier once set aside for dedicated services.

5G Network Infrastructure Market Key Segments:

• By component, RAN is expected to witness significant growth in the 5G network infrastructure market

The RAN segment is expected to have the largest 5G infrastructure market share because it can support a wide range of spectrum bands. The exponential growth expected for small cells is due to the expansion of network capacity in specific places. Basically, 5G small cells in an area of high user density can connect the maximum number of smartphones by the operator. As the demand for high broadband increases, together with the growth in data traffic through enhanced network capacity resulting from 5G network architecture, the necessity for small cells is anticipated to rise.

Moreover, there would be a rise in demand for cloud-RAN driven by the increase in demand for newer architectures of wireless networks. Through better network performance, virtual-RAN adds to improved user experience. The need for C-RAN and V-RAN in a 5G infrastructure is forecast to escalate.

• By deployment, standalone is expected to witness significant growth in the 5G network infrastructure market

A 5G standalone network is a unique and independent infrastructure, in which both the 5G core and the 5G new radio are deployed as different networks. 5G technology is a genuine innovation by SA architecture, which contains all the possible 5G features and capabilities. It is particularly effective in situations where a complete network redesign is needed or when a 5G greenfield deployment is feasible. SA architecture when compared to NSA architecture, besides lower latency and enhanced performance, can specifically meet the needs of applications where the highest efficiency and reliability are needed, e.g., critical internet of things (IoT) services, and driverless cars.

Further, the advancement of technology and the changes in telecommunications infrastructure through innovations are major aspects that drive the standalone 5G network market industry.

5G Network Infrastructure Market Geographical Outlook:

• The North American region is expected to witness significant growth in the 5G network infrastructure market.

The increasing need for high-speed connectivity is propelling the 5G network infrastructure market in North America. Emerging technologies like virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR), online gaming, and video streaming produce data-intensive applications that call for faster, more dependable networks. High bandwidth and ultra-low latency, which 5G can only offer, are essential for improving user experiences and business and consumer operational efficiency.

Moreover, the government and private sector investments play a significant role in driving the U.S. 5G network infrastructure market. Federal initiatives, such as spectrum auctions and funding for rural broadband expansion, are aimed at accelerating 5G deployment. For instance, the US National Spectrum Strategy, launched in November 2023, with the lower part of the 3.5 GHz range (3.1–3.45 GHz), was an important step as the US works to increase the amount of midband spectrum available for mobile services, which will be crucial to delivering sustainable social and industrial development.

5G Network Infrastructure Market Key Developments:

• In January 2025, 3M demonstrated its dedication in developing 5G technologies at CES 2025 by presenting cutting-edge solutions meant to improve network dependability and performance. The business underlined its responsibility to tackle issues including signal integrity and electromagnetic interference (EMI), which are essential for a successful rollout of 5G.
• in August 2024, Ericsson and Uscellular announced an infrastructure upgrade, utilizing Ericsson's already existing Router 6000 portfolio along with the newly announced Router 6671, to close the digital divide in rural America by bolstering 5G transport infrastructure and enhancing high-speed internet access.
