What is 5G?
5G refers to the fifth generation of mobile network technology, designed to be faster, more reliable and more resilient than its predecessors such as 4G LTE.
Key Benefits of 5G Support
Faster Internet Speeds
5G has the capacity to reach speeds of up to 10 Gbps download which is far greater than the ~100 Mbps we are seeing in 4G today.
Excellent for streaming 4K/8K videos, downloading big data sets or online gaming.
Lower Latency
We are talking just 1 millisecond of delay possible with 5G — real-time communication.
Although critical to online gaming, tele-surgery, self-driving cars and VR/AR.
Higher Capacity
Being able to carry more devices at a time with better stability.
Great for high-traffic areas like stadiums, malls or smart cities.
Improved Connectivity
More reliable speeds even in dense areas;
Users can make video calls running dependency-free, live streaming, and aiding with mobile hotspots.
