What is 5G?

The fifth generation of mobile networks, or 5G. Following 1G, 2G, 3G, and 4G networks, it is a new international wireless standard. In order to connect practically everyone and everything together, including machines, objects, and gadgets, 5G enables a new type of network.

The goal of 5G wireless technology is to provide more users with faster multi-Gbps peak data rates, extremely low latency, enhanced reliability, vast network capacity, and a more consistent user experience. New user experiences are enabled by increased performance and efficiency, which also connects new industries.

The same radio frequencies that are currently utilized for satellite communications, your smartphone, and Wi-Fi networks also support 5G, but it allows for much greater technological advancement.

5G is actually about connecting things everywhere - consistently, without lag - so people can measure, understand, and manage things in real-time. This goes beyond being able to download a full-length HD movie to your phone in seconds (even from a crowded stadium). We will advance this together and realize its huge potential.
