“If the ban stays in place – and that’s a big if, we’ll see what happens – what it means is that the traditional competitors like Nokia and Ericsson will have a leg up,” Gold says.

“From an enterprise perspective the question becomes – and carriers have been posing this – ‘If I give you 5G, and I can put it in your building, why do I need things like Wi-Fi or high-speed Wi-Fi?” he says.
