The new internet technology 5G has caused great discussion since it was announced.

This is because she is part of a speech that promises that she will be responsible for changing the lives of people and companies around the world. 

But will this really happen? What is so different about this technology from 4G, for example?

Will it really increase competitiveness in the network and telephone services market? 

To try to answer some of these questions about the internet 5G, we have separated in this content some essential information on this subject.

After all, what exactly is 5G technology?

Mobile internet technology 5G promises greater range and speed, which allows the interconnection of devices and equipment, which allow access to domestic utility innovations, the so-called “internet of things”. 

In other words, this interconnection will work for both equipment at home and in the office.

Thus, it will allow cell phones and gadgets that do not have a Wi-Fi connection or cable internet to work. 

In addition, having a device with a connection 5G enables superior download and upload processing.

However, with an excellent data transfer speed per second, which generates savings of up to 90% in the device's energy consumption.

How does 5G mobile internet work?

What makes the internet 5G is so attractive is precisely its high speed capacity to connect several remote devices at the same time, without losing quality.

To give you an idea, the new technology is 20 times faster than 4G. While 4G takes 54 milliseconds to process a 4 Gigabyte video download, the new one will do it in an interval of 1 to 2 milliseconds in a 20 Gigabyte video. 

In addition, the ability of connected devices on the 5G increases from 10 thousand devices per kilometer to 1 million.

This means that its reach is also greater, which means that the internet can reach rural areas that currently have no signal. 

How did this new technology arrive in Brazil? Do I need to change my cell phone for it to work?

A technology auction 5G made by Anatel in November last year was one of the first steps to bring the technology to Brazil.

The implementation, however, will happen in phases by the operators, who have until July to offer in the 27 capitals.

Initially, the available network was 5G DSS (dynamic spectrum sharing), in which the existing structure today is capable of routing the new internet technology.

Therefore, it determines the demand for 4G and 5G networks in real time. 

Regarding users, to have access to 5G you need to have a cell phone with a compatible antenna and chipsets.

Otherwise, it will not be available for use within the locations where it is covered. 

What are the possibilities with this internet network?

The technology 5G It is part of the great changes that occur together with technological advances.

Below is a summary of everything that will be possible to do with this service. Look: 

In this way, when finishing the installations for the 5G, energy consumption should decrease, which makes the long-term costs worth it.

Because of this, this new technology can be considered more ecological. 

Among the daily activities that will benefit, we can highlight, for example, the improvement in performing remote surgeries using robots, more advanced safety systems to prevent car accidents, among others. 

In other words, the evolution to the system 5G of internet brings an improvement in the quality of life of the population.

At first, in everyday life, the public's perception may be lower. However, several sectors will benefit greatly. 

Get ready to have access to new 5G internet technology

5G technology truly has great potential to improve the development of various sectors.

To follow more details, access the Anatel website.

In its topics on the subject, you can already find, for example, a list of approved cell phones that accept the new network in their configurations. 

So, if you plan to change your cell phone in the near future, you can now opt for models that already support this new technology.

However, be aware that, because of the more advanced systems, they also have higher prices.
