THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT 5G

THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW
ABOUT 5G
Take your Business Communication to Next Level with Fast Internet

1.What is 5G?
It’s a new tech for your phones that will blow you away with speeds that
exceed anything that the current technology offers, that’s what they claim
but we wait in anticipation as it slowly gets rolled out everywhere around
the world including Australia. The most important thing you need to know is
that you’d need a new handset to use the 5G, like the Samsung galaxy s10
5G, Oppo Reno 5G, OnePlus 7 Pro 5G, Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5G and the LG V50
ThinQ 5G.

2.What are the benefits to us?
5G can support up to a million devices per square kilometer that is 10 times
more than what the current 4G network can support. This means better
connection, less congestion. This applies to the people in the big cities
where network gets real slow real fast when too many people are
connected. To the remote areas it might not help much, depending how
your network carrier’s infrastructure is installed, you’d get an internet
connection on steroids or it may trickle down to 3g speeds. So, if you are a
city dweller then you are going to love it, but remote places might not
have many benefits, mostly your luck depends on how far the towers are
installed from your location.

3.How fast is it?
Speeds are expected to exceed 1Gbps, which most certainly is amazing.
Faster speed, low latency (almost no lag) means you can take the benefits
of cloud computing to the max. Have your ERP online or your business
phone system on the cloud, making it easy for you to move around and run
multiple offices simultaneously with uniformity. It will make task sharing
among the employees easy and fast, in turn your customers will have
consistent and better services and of course you get to watch your online
streams at ultrahigh quality.

4.What about reliability and latency?
With 5G you will experience latency time decreased to half that is the time it takes data to
travel from your phone to the server and back. Well, for normal people it might just mean
there would be almost no lag in the video calls, phone calls and streaming media. For the
specialized applications it would really change how things are done, applications related
to reality augmentation like remote robotic surgery, or any technology that requires to be
operated from a remote base will benefit significantly from this technology.
The initial radio frequencies that will be used for 5G in Australia belong to the
FR1(Frequency range one) that is below 6GHz (in Australia it is 3.5GHz and 3.6GHz). In
future years radio frequencies in the mmWave band that will be the FR2(Frequency range
two) at 26-28GHz are expected to be used for 5G in Australia. Mind you that mmWaves will
make 5G speeds really fast but they require a lot more infrastructure and they are very
weak so they need lot more repeaters and require clear line of sight to work.

5.What about radiation?
Most of the news spreading about the effects of 5G tower radiation killing
the environment could be a concern but there are no studies to show that
it is true, the truth is that the radiation levels emitted by the 5G tower are
quite low and safe.
The radiation emitted by 5G towers is regulated by The Australian Radiation
Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA).
Here are some links to studies from WHO’s IARC (International Agency for
Research on Cancer) and (ARPANSA) that are related to radiation emitted
by mobile phones.

The verdict, 5G looks promising but how it is implemented remains a mystery till it is rolled
out, yes it will be faster than nbn, but it will not be replacing it anytime soon, as it would
be quite expensive to the customers and require a lot more infrastructure investment
which will take some time to implement.
If you have any questions regarding 5G or nbn do not hesitate to contact us at Trikon
Telecommunications on 1300 Trikon (874566). To get your phone systems checked
whether they are nbn ready, or if you would like us to offer you a better deal on your
current telecom bills, book an appointment! We will deliver.
