WHAT IS 5G?
5G is the 5th generation of mobile communication technology, offering improved performance over LTE.
1G
Analog
Voice only
2G
GSM/CDMA
Text and multimedia messaging, plus basic web access for feature phones
3G
EV-DO/UMTS/HSPA+
Faster data speeds drove smartphone adoption
4G
LTE
Even faster data speeds allowed social media and streaming services to grow
5G
The future
Faster speeds, especially for downloading
How fast is 5G? Under optimal network conditions, its 100 times faster than 4G LTE.
5G = 100x 4G
Reduced Latency
Latency (also called “ag”) is the time between sending a command from a device and
waiting for it to react. You can expect ultra-low latency with 5G, which will improve online
gamingand other apps that require low latency.
Better coverage, especially in hard to reach areas
5G has more capacity to handle more devices using large amounts of data, and is designed to work better in dense areas where many people are using the same network. It uses a larger number of smaller cells that can be placed inside of venues with heavy traffic.
Places where you will see benefits once 5G is fully deployed:
- - Office buildings
- - Concerts, sporting events, festivals
- - Large cities
