What is 5G?

Wireless technology in its fifth generation promises more than just a

quicker network. It will contribute to the network's redefinition by
setting a new worldwide wireless standard for speed, throughput, and
bandwidth. A 5G network serves as a portal to the future.

Getting to Know 5G Technology.

It's helpful to know what came before 5G in order to comprehend it. The
initial generation of mobile technology, known as 1G, was primarily
focused on voice. It was here that the ability to use a phone in a car or
anywhere else really gained hold. Short-messaging layer was introduced
with the introduction of 2G, and portions of it may still be seen in
today's texting features. The switch to 3G enabled smartphones with the
necessary network speeds. And 4G, with its blistering data transfer
rates, spawned a slew of linked products and services that we now rely
on and enjoy.
A discussion of 5G technology is actually a debate of how next-
generation networks can bring life-changing innovations. And Verizon
has the engineering expertise and alliances necessary to transfer
massive volumes of data at substantially quicker rates than previously
possible.
All of this is based on years of work to “densify” our 4G LTE network
with small cell sites in high-traffic locations such as shopping malls,
college campuses, and downtown regions. We were able to introduce
Verizon 5G Ultra Wideband—a technology that we expect will
revolutionize industries and provide immediate impact for customers—
faster and more efficiently thanks to these improvements, as well as the
use of millimeter wave spectrum and the deployment of a massive fiber
network.
We were able to roll out 5G across the country because we built 5G
correctly. Our brand new 5G Nationwide network, the result of our
tireless team's network know-how, is available to more than 200 million
people in 1,800 cities.
Is there a 5G network in my city?
From San Diego to New York City, Denver to D.C., 5G Ultra Wideband is
already available in parts of 55 locations, with plans to expand to 60+
cities by the end of 2020.
In addition to these mobile areas, Verizon is expanding the availability
of 5G Home Internet, the first 5G-powered home broadband service.

What is the speed of 5G Ultra

Wideband?
The huge upscaling of network technology that 5G Ultra Wideband
represents. It will offer data transfer rates faster than the blink of an
eye, high bandwidth, and more networking options.
The difference can be measured in terms of outright speed. Our 5G Ultra
Wideband network has the ability to provide speeds that are hundreds
of times faster than our present 4G network. Because data travels so
swiftly via 5G Ultra Wideband.
Because of its faster data transfer speeds, 5G Ultra Wideband will
eventually allow even more technologies to connect, allowing for a truly
huge Internet of Things. There are 14.2 billion linked "things" in
operation today, with that figure predicted to rise to over 55 billion by
2025. The goal of 5G Ultra Wideband is to assist satisfy the ever-
increasing demands on network bandwidth.
Verizon's 5G Ultra Wideband will also usher in a new era of commercial
connectivity. Verizon 5G Edge with Amazon Web Services (AWS)
Wavelength is the world's first mobile edge compute (MEC) platform,
combining Verizon's market-leading 5G network with AWS's industry-
leading cloud expertise to enable developers and enterprise customers
to build large-scale, latency-sensitive applications.
What are the advantages of 5G Ultra
Wideband?
“What can't 5G Ultra Wideband be utilized for?” could be a better
question. Rich, complicated data has the ability to travel at previously
unimaginable speeds. These speeds, when combined with decreasing
latency, will have far-reaching implications for every industry.
The integration of AR and VR apps should be smooth. Remote control of
industrial machines and robotics is possible. Rather than minutes, full-
length HD movies may be downloaded in seconds.
