Mobile Broadband (3G/4G/5G) Penetration

AMT’s International Footprint Provides Access to a Wide Range of Wireless Markets


Notes:
(1) Broadband Penetration is Number of Active Mobile-broadband subscriptions per 100 ppl from OECD, Omdia (4G penetration), ITU 2020; Kenya, Niger, Nigeria, and Uganda are Omdia 3G penetration due to low rates of 4G;
wireless penetration for CY21E (Bank of America Global Wireless Matrix + additional sources shown throughout deck).
(2) U.S. mobile BB penetration shown higher than wireless penetration likely due to different sources.
