Are there any US carriers that are using unlicensed / shares spectrum? The bandwidth is only limited per tower, you can easily double the throughput of a given area by doubling the number of cell towers (and reducing power to avoid interference). It’s a lot cheaper to build a new tower than to run new wires to 200 homes (permits and all). On top of that 5g gives 10x bandwidth over 4g in the same band. |

You can have 1,000 wires in a bit of pipe, effectively 1,000 "spectrums." The air will always only be a single spectrum.
Cell division does not scale infinitely, and becomes more and more complex to manage.
Running cable you do once, then you can benefit for a long time. Wired will always be the better technical solution, and more economic one, in built up areas.
