5G is the marketing term for the fifth generation of mobile networks, which will offer higher speeds and lower latency than the current 4G. The average latency of 4G is about 50 milliseconds, and 5G can be as low as 1 millisecond. This is very important when it comes to scenarios where response time affects the results, such as online gaming and streaming, virtual reality, and the growing number of IoT applications.
Our world is already mobile, with over 30 billion connected devices and continuing to grow with the popularity of IoT technology. Existing spectrum will continue to be congested with network traffic and cause maintenance and reliability issues. 5G will allow more devices to be connected simultaneously, and telecom base stations will be significantly smaller and can be installed in a wider range of places, which was not possible in the past. The problem is that to benefit from 5G, you need hardware or devices that are compatible with and support 5G. 5G will play an important role in multiple industries and help accelerate the development of connected technologies. These advances will enable connected cars and autonomous driving, as well as smart cities with connected logistics, transportation and infrastructure; enhanced technologies from robotics to blockchain to wearable healthcare, industrial IoT and smart factories; and more widespread use of augmented reality, virtual reality and mixed reality. While these technologies have been around for some time, 5G networks are expected to drive exponential growth, scalability, and adoption of these technologies. How can enterprises prepare for 5G? Enterprises must prepare for the technology now in order to take advantage of the benefits and operational efficiencies 5G offers.
Although it will quickly bring smart technology and the Internet of Things into the consumer and business mainstream, mass adoption of 5G is still expected to take five years. In the meantime, business leaders and CIOs are developing strategies for this new technology, which is challenging given that we don’t yet fully understand the potential impact and opportunities it may bring. |
