5G Will Open a World of Possibilities

NEW APPLICATIONS WILL TRANSFORM OUR DAILY LIVES

5G is a game changer delivering more bandwidth, greater capacity and speed, lower latency and truly reliable connectivity.

THERE WILL BE NO BUFFERING
Throughput potentially exceeding 10 Gbps will enable you to download an entire HD film in less than a second.

NETWORK LATENCY WILL BE A THING OF THE PAST
5G will enable latency of <2 milliseconds, ensuring that data rates will stay consistently high even when users are moving around.

SPEEDS UP TO 20 TIMES FASTER THAN 4G
Blazing speeds will allow massive amounts of data to be relayed between connected devices, systems and supporting infrastructure in near real time.

TEN TIMES MORE CONNECTIONS THAN PEOPLE ON EARTH
5G will enhance network spectrum efficiency, enabling the connection of 75 billion devices by 2025.

AUTONOMOUS DRIVING WILL BE A PREDICTABLE REALITY
Improvements in reliability of over 99.9% will enable guaranteed air time and data rates, a critical factor for autonomous vehicles and mission critical applications.

These critical pillars lay the foundation for new and yet-to-be-imagined applications. The possibilities are enormous — but not without major engineering challenges.
