2020? 4G is hardly old hat then! Of course there is going to be 5G within around 7 years! But for the time being 4G will be going for a while yet.
It does say its only good for up to 2km which made me smile as that's about the present distance the average 3 mobile cell penetrates at the moment!
"Ohh look I have 3G in my car..... Damm that bush its gone and I'm back on the orange back up signal....."
Probably actually backhaul technology is there or at least getting there Google Fiber is putting in backhaul slowly in US for about same sort of speeds.
it still makes 5G beyond the horizon. but it's a start.

I look forward to EE's 5G top offering. Using a complex extrapolation algorithm I predict it will have a bandwidth limit that lasts for 8.2 seconds, yet somehow it will cost £76 per month.
