Technology 5G

Businesses cannot afford to be disconnected and 5G deployments have become a vital part of the solution. As we collectively continue to work and run the school from our homes, the value of 5G will become increasingly common in 2021

But what exactly is 5G?

The name of 5G refers to the fifth generation of mobile networks that we know. Gone was the old 1G network, that of those first mobile phones that only allowed talking. 2G technology introduced SMS, and little by little our ‘smartphone’ became an increasingly comprehensive communication tool. First, the Internet connection (3G) was incorporated and then broadband (4G) arrived, which brought with it the reproduction of videos in real time (streaming) or augmented reality, something to which we are already very accustomed, but which a few years ago they were completely unviable.

How 5G will change the world?

The most significant advance will come from the hand of speed. 5G will allow browsing up to 10 GBps (gigabytes per second), 10 times faster than the main fiber optic offerings on the market. At that rate, you can, for example, download a full movie in a matter of seconds.
