Overview: 

Samsung Networks hit the headlines at MWC in Las Vegas with news of its first major contract with a US cable operator. The Korean vendor will provide 5G connectivity for Comcast across its 600 MHz and CBRS spectrum, which will include deployment of its new Strand small cell radio, developed specifically for the cable market in conjunction with Comcast. This is another breakthrough for Samsung, following its multi-billion open RAN/vRAN contract wins with Verizon, Vodafone and more recently Dish. 

Based partly on an analyst briefing at MWC, this Vendor Report provides an overview and assessment of the Korean vendor’s mobile infrastructure strategy and the opportunities it sees globally in the 5G infrastructure market.
