A. 5G stands for the fifth generation of mobile communications.

This next generation promises users faster internet speeds, while increasing network efficiency and improving the flexibility of wireless services.

A. 5G works on the same mobile network principles as the 4G LTE network. However, 5G users will get an upgraded experience on the 4G network with more flexibility, scalability, and connectivity.

A. Yes, they will. The 5G phones currently on the market will automatically access the lesser 4G LTE and below networks available in non-5G zones.

A. Yes, it does. With 5G, users will be able to access the internet using wireless transmitters that are connected to fibre optic cables.

Fibre enables users to enjoy the full benefits of 5G including reliability, speed, and security.

A. Unlike 4G which is capable of reaching speed levels of 100 megabits per second (Mbps), 5G is capable of up to 10 gigabits per second (Gbps). Which is 100 times the maximum speed of the present 4G technology.

A. 5G brings faster download speeds that already rivals and surpasses the present wired connections like cable or fibre.

With 5G, you get 100 times the capabilities of 4G like:

• Faster Speeds – Due to the high-band wave spectrum of 5G, expect to see download speeds that will surpass the current capabilities of your current home internet.
• Less Lagging – 5G removes lagging and buffering, which helps give users real-time experience.
• Improved Functionality- 5G creates better connections and increases the ability of users to power more apps, sites, and have a better experience for technologies like augmented and virtual reality.
• Innovation Beyond Imagination- Expect everything from gaming and streaming functions to self-driving cars and virtual surgeries that can take place from halfway across the world to be better and accessible using 5G

A. The list of phones that can connect to 5G will change over time as newer models are brought into the market and made available.

A. Unless your phone is 5G-enabled, you’ll need a new phone to access the 5G network. There are, however, a growing number of devices available from brands such as Apple, Samsung, Tecno, LG, OnePlus, etc.

A. No, you don’t. The 5G label on a home Wi-Fi router indicates that it operates in the 5GHz (gigahertz) spectrum band. Wi-Fi technology is different from that of 5G.

Improved Home Security

• Whether your home security system uses one or multiple cameras, you’ll see a major improvement with the crystal-clear quality 5G offers. You can clearly tell what is going on in and around your home and can use smart motion sensors to identify anyone around your house in real time to notify the authorities against any potential threat.

Smart Lighting

• Think of how easy it’ll be for you if your home knew what time of the day it was and adjusted the lights accordingly. Or imagine a lightbulb connected to your wi-fi that can be controlled by your voice or phone. These, and more, are what 5G offers.

Smarter Entertainment

• Talking about the smart life, a smart home technology will give you the power to control devices, equipment, and everything from the TV to the sound system with just your voice.

Better Irrigation Systems

• Most home sprinkler systems operate using the schedule you set and will do the job even if rain is falling outside, but not a smart 5G-connected sprinkler system. It can use the current weather conditions to operate and with sensors, it can adjust the ground’s moisture level without you having to lift a finger.

Smarter Thermostats

• 5G can enable thermostats to self-regulate based on the temperature outside and the number of people in the home. It also keeps track of the homeowner’s going and coming to adjust the home temperature accordingly for both your comfort and to saving energy.

Smart Appliances

• Like humans, there are many home appliances that have been waiting for 5G connectivity. With 5G, your appliances can all work together without you having to lift a finger. For example, you can have a coffee maker that starts to brew a cup of coffee as soon as you walk in the kitchen or an oven that starts to preheat for dinner when you get home from work.

Smart Blinds

• With 5G, your blinds can adjust themselves to maintain the same level of brightness in the room throughout the day.

Game Better

• You can say goodbye to screaming in frustration when you experience lagging and buffering anytime you game. Thanks to 5G, your home’s bandwidth is enhanced to enable your network handle multiple data-heavy games easily.

Improved Work from Home Conditions

• If you’re someone who works remotely, chances are you’ve had to use a VPN to maintain a secure connection in order to download/upload huge network-straining files. However, because 5G increases network capacity, you can now work remotely easily without disruption.

5G Enabled Cleaning Robots

• To make the ever-growing Internet of Things to work, a powerful and consistent network is needed and that’s where 5G shines through. With a 5G-enabled home, you can use products like iRobot bundles, where one robot vacuums while the other one mops simultaneously, to keep your home clean. Products like these depend on quality networks and that’s why 5G is perfect for homes.

A. 5G network has many benefits with superfast speeds on of its main features. 5G and fibre optic networks will work hand-in-hand to offer users a cohesive internet experience.

A. 5G and Wi-Fi will continue to co-exist, with both networks complementing each other for the foreseeable future

A. 5G will allow connection to a wide variety of devices for both personal and business use. The 5G network also provides enhanced performance, increased capacity, and network efficiency in every industry.

A. A private 5G network or next-gen Local Area Network (LAN), offers a dedicated network for unified connectivity, better services, and a more secure communication.

A. Every day, the benefits of 5G in different industries are being realised. As the network capabilities improve, more innovative methods of using 5G to advance each sector will also be discovered.

A. Yes, it will. The advancements in both internet and technology will drastically improve various sectors of industries with 5G.

A. 5G will revolutionize remote working, boost rural economies, increase the use of AR and VR in business, and improve overall retail experience and Internet of Things (IoT)

A. The answer is NO. Though there has been a misinformation connecting the COVID-19 pandemic to the expansion of 5G networks, it is false. And noted scientific and legitimate statements will back up this fact. 5G had no involvement in the spread of the novel coronavirus.

A. Yes, it is. The wavelength 5G operates on is non-iodized radiation and so doesn’t produce enough energy to damage body cells.
