Wide scale deployment of 5G
- Intel launched its XMM 8000 series 5G modems on 16 November 2017, following Qualcomm's Snapdragon X50 a month earlier[1]
- XMM 8000 is Intel's first family of commercial 5G multi-mode modems, covering sub-6GHz and millimetre wave bands; Intel hopes for design wins in PCs, phones and vehicles[1]
- The first product, XMM 8060, supports 5G non-standalone and standalone NR plus 2G, 3G (including CDMA) and 4G, and is expected in devices from mid-2019, ahead of wide-scale 5G deployment the following year[1]
- Ericsson's November 2018 Mobility Report forecast 5G subscriptions reaching 1.5 billion and 40 percent population coverage by 2024, the fastest generational rollout; a first 5G network (Verizon fixed wireless) was already live in the US[2]
- Ericsson expected a strong 5G device line-up by Q2 2019; Europe risks lagging at 29 percent adoption by 2024 versus 55 percent in the US[2]

TechRadar's headline "5G will have 'fastest ever' global rollout" supports the same general claim, but the fetched page returned only navigation and membership content with no substantive article text, so this is only tangential support.

Axios's own headline, "5G will see a wide rollout in 2020," backs the pin's general claim of a 2020-era 5G rollout, though the article returned a 403 error and could not be retrieved to confirm specific details beyond the title.

Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most.
