In this final look at 5G’s impact on MVNOs, we examine regulatory shifts, new 5G use cases, and the transformation steps operators must take to capitalise on emerging opportunities.
5G is reshaping the MVNO market, creating new opportunities and use cases. In this first part of Enghouse Networks’ series, we explore the tech shifts driving growth for the 5G-enabled MVNO.
The MVNO model has gained many followers, with brands using mobile to reach customers in different ways. The basics have been in place for more than 20 years – but that’s about to change.
Expected within two years at most and set to enable thousands of low latency applications, particularly for industrial purposes, Multi-Edge Access Computing (MEC) is emerging as a key requirement to support 5G SA (Standalone). Cloud computing and IT service power at the edge of a network offers many benefits, but to deliver on MEC’s enormous commercial promise, fibre has to play a central role.
Bringing your own carrier (BYOC) is gaining momentum due to the increased adoption of cloud computing and related technologies. More and more companies are moving into the cloud and off-the-shelf solutions do not provide flexible connectivity.
IoT is going to be a very different market from the one you’re an expert in. CSPs need to move beyond just providing a service and making money from telephony and billing users on a flat rate basis.
There are many players that specialise in IoT and B2B services, while others are blending complementary offers to engage their retail customers. They are doing different things, with greater autonomy and agility. And, 5G is coming, which will unlock a plethora of new business models and opportunities, so now’s the time to take action.

Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) know that what they have to offer isn’t always for ‘everyone’. Their main brand offering can’t (and doesn’t) appeal to everyone; there will be bits of the youth, highly specific demographic or ethnic markets, who may not gravitate towards them.
