5G FOR ALL
What is 5G?
5G or "fifth generation" wireless technology represents the pinnacle of mobile communication advancements. Unlike its predecessors (4G &3G), 5G operates at much higher frequencies allowing for unprecedented speed and efficiency in data transmission. This revolutionary technology promises to transform the way we connect, communicate, and experience the digital world.
Increased network reliability
Capacity for more connected devices
Faster speeds and downloads
What makes 5G Different?
To better appreciate the leap 5G represents, let's compare it to its predecessors:
Speed: While 4G offered impressive speeds ranging between 50Mbps to 180Mbps, 5G takes it to the next level with capabilities of up to 20Gbps in the best conditions. Streaming high-definition content, downloading large files and online gaming in real-time are effortless with 5G.
Reliability: 5G's reliability is unmatched, especially in crowded areas. It ensures a stable connection even when network traffic is at its peak, eliminating issues such as dropped calls and buffering.
Latency: When it comes to the responsiveness of applications and processing, 5G's ultra-low latency is a game-changer. 4G had an average latency of around 30 milliseconds, while 5G brings it down to 1 millisecond or even lower.
Capacity: 5G can support far more devices simultaneously compared to 4G, making it ideal for environments with high-density connectivity such as urban areas.
HIGH BAND
The high-band spectrum provides lightning-fast speeds over short distances, boasting a significant speed increase over 4G, but with less coverage than low or medium band 5G.
MID-BAND
The medium or Mid-band spectrum provides both coverage and capacity, so customers have a balance of greater speeds at a high range.
LOW BAND
These waves enable the greatest amount of coverage and a signal that can penetrate windows and walls to deliver 5G to more areas, albeit at only slightly faster speeds than 4G.
Looking to the Future
5G technology is not just an evolutionary step; it's a revolutionary leap that promises to reshape our digital experiences across the USVI. At Viya, we are committed to providing the best connectivity solutions that keep our customers at the forefront of the latest technology. With 5G, you can look forward to faster speeds, lower latency, enhanced reliability and a future filled with exciting possibilities. Welcome to the era of 5G with Viya – where the future is now.
