5G & 6G the future of telecommunications infrastructure

5G & 6G

What is 5G?

The biggest differences between 4G and 5G are speed, latency and cell density. The ever-growing use cases and exponential growth of data have meant that 4G is no longer as suitable for data intensive applications  The biggest difference is latency, 5G provides latency of 1 millisecond which can be exploited for real-time applications (such as remote surgery), as opposed to 4G which ranges from 60 – 98 milliseconds. Download speed is also dramatically improved. 5G performance typically stops at 1Gbps, whereas 5G will perform comfortably at 10Gbps. Cell density is also higher, in 4G there would typically be between 200 & 400 users per cell, whereas with 5G that figure can be 100 times that. To download our latest brochure click here
