About 2G and 3G Switch Off
As 5G is emerging in the networking market, the issues around the shutdown of older networks are increases. Major players already decommissioned their legacy networks while others have announced their plan to do so. Some small Asia countries have no longer any 2G networks, after a government or regulatory decision. Shutting down 2G or 3G is technically define as LTE supersedes 2G and 3G mobile technologies. At a period of moving away from 2G is painful for many IoT and M2M companies, it is a necessary measure to get more stable and better networks in return. 3G and 4G coverage are growing fast, LTE-M and NB-IoT networks are steadily rolling out and many module makers already support them.

With Increasing 4G Proliferation And 5G Already Being Rolled Out In Some Regions. Players Are In Way To Switching-Off 2G Networks In Countries Such As Japan, Macau, Singapore And South Korea. In Some European Countries It Could Be The Case Where 2G May Even Outlive 3G, UMTS. Norwegian MNO Telenor Announced 3G Switch-Off In 2020 – Five Years Before 2G. Analyst at AMA Research estimates that United States, Canada Players will contribute the maximum growth to Global 2G and 3G Switch Off market throughout the forecasted period. Established and emerging Players should take a closer view at their existing organizations and reinvent traditional business and operating models to adapt to the future.
AT&T (United States), Verizon (United States), China Mobile (China), NTT (Japan), Telefonica (Spain), Deutsche Telekom (Germany), America Movil (Mexico), Orange (United Kingdom), China Telecom (China), KDDI (Japan), China Unicom (Hong Kong), T-Mobile (United States), Bell Canada (Canada), Telus (Canada) and Telenor (Norway) are some of the key players that are part of study coverage. Additionally, the Players which are also part of the research coverage are Swisscom (Switzerland), SK Telecom (South Korea) and Korea Telecom (South Korea).
Segmentation Overview
AMA Research has segmented the market of Global 2G and 3G Switch Off market by Type (Natural Shutdown, - Mix Of Customer Less Than 2%, Constrained Shutdown, - Government/Regulator Action, - Negative Competitive Positioning, Anticipated Shutdown, - Reduce Investment and - Positive Competitive Positioning), Application (Message, Voice, Data and Video) and Region.
On the basis of geography, the market of 2G and 3G Switch Off has been segmented into South America (Brazil, Argentina, Rest of South America), Asia Pacific (China, Japan, India, South Korea, Taiwan, Australia, Rest of Asia-Pacific), Europe (Germany, France, Italy, United Kingdom, Netherlands, Rest of Europe), MEA (Middle East, Africa), North America (United States, Canada, Mexico). If we see Market by Technology, the sub-segment i.e. 2G will boost the 2G and 3G Switch Off market. Additionally, the rising demand from SMEs and various industry verticals gives enough cushion to market growth.
