• More people around the world connected to the mobile network than to the electric grid.  
• Here comes 5G ... 5G is like the missing piece of the puzzle depicting the wireless future. 
• Gigabit mobile connections at any location will open up hugely disruptive new value propositions for the users of networks. 
• The Internet’s open design is protected by FCC rules. 
• What’s still missing? Ultra-high-speed, high-capacity, low-latency, secure mobile connectivity. That's what 5G delivers.  
• Wireless data use more than doubled from 2014 to 2015, and continued growth is projected for the foreseeable future. 
• 3 keys for what the Commission [FCC.gov] can do to help unlock the 5G opportunity: spectrum; infrastructure (backhaul); siting.
• 5G is not a technology.  It is a revolution.
