Fifth-generation technology is gaining momentum in the world, but not in Israel, because cellular companies are not investing in development and infrastructure that will enable it to operate. Will the entry of cloud giants into the field change the picture?
Fifth generation technology (5g) Arouses great interest around the world and is an integral part of the future.
Technology exists in Israel, but there is still a long way to go in the field. Cellular companies prefer to invest in the marketing of fifth-generation packages, and less in the development of applications, websites and infrastructure that will enable its operation.
In exchange for the luxury packages, users get an antenna designed for the fifth generation with an indicator on the device, and slightly faster than the network of the fourth generation. Fifth generation as it were.
While cellular companies are recognizing some growth potential in revenue coming from fifth-generation packages, at this point, it does not appear that they intend to step up its development, especially when they do not yet know how profitable it is.
Recently, the World Cellular Congress was held in Barcelona, and was attended by many companies, including the leading cloud companies in the world. Among the prominent issues that came up at the conference was the entry of giants, such as Amazon and Microsoft, into the cellular field. The cloud companies seem to understand that if they are not at the end of the network, they will not be at the end either, which is why big players enter the world of the fifth generation.
The entry of new players, especially the big cloud players, poses a significant threat to Israeli cellular companies and may be what will wake them up.
What is the fifth generation?
The potential of the fifth generation is becoming clearer, which is reflected in the development of new applications that require fifth generation infrastructure.
Technologies 5G Make the life of each and every one of us much more comfortable and much more accessible thanks to greater bandwidth, higher data rate, lower dwell times, and support for a larger amount of devices – compared to Standard 4G.
The fifth generation cellular network produces an extremely high surfing rate. The network offers stable and fast communication capability between different devices. Not of course not only mobile devices, but also smart city technologies, smart homes, autonomous vehicles and more can enjoy the benefit of life connected to the G5 system.
In the future, our refrigerators will be able to create a shopping list based on the regular products we buy, the washing machine will start working already on the way home. All thanks to technology that transmits information at a dizzying pace.
The deployment of the network began around the world in 2019 in Israel, we are still not there, even if we sell you a yes
