  • Essentially, standalone 5G will be able to deliver low latency connectivity, machine-to-machine
Benefits of 5G 
  • 5G will allow for much faster Internet speeds and lower latency compared to 4G.
  • Peak speeds could touch 10 Gbps, compared to the 100 Mbps for 4G. While 4G latency is 10-100 milliseconds, on 5G it is expected to be under 1 millisecond.
