The much-awaited 5G is already here! It saw the light of day in India on October 1, 2022, when it was loudly and proudly launched by the Hon. Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi. The first rollout includes the country’s 13 metropolitan areas. However, it will soon spread to become available nationwide.

In many of the world’s other parts as well, 5G has been launched, and in many others, it has already been deployed. As a result, it is rapidly spreading and will soon become an essential part of the digitally-driven business world and life.

But what makes 5G so hyped? Why didn’t 2G, 3G, and 4G deserve as much applause and a grand launch? In other words, what’s so special about 5G? Let’s explore the answer to these questions by looking at some of the benefits of 5G.

What is 5G?

5G, also known as the fifth generation, is the most recent iteration of cellular technology used for mobile and the internet. It is quicker and more power-efficient than its historical counterparts. Based on these features, 5G is projected to enable faster downloads, reduced latency, and higher data limits.

How is 5G beneficial?

While revolving primarily around internet speed, 5G offers various other benefits that make it the most talked about technology worldwide. Let’s look at four.

  1. Much Faster Internet

As mentioned above, this is 5G’s primary advantage. But how quick is 5G compared to 4G? 4G offers a speed of 32 Mbps. But 5G quadruples it to make it a staggering 132 Mbps! and that’s not it. The speed will gradually increase with network maturity. The result is lightning-fast downloads, adieu to buffering, and much quicker communication, especially when it comes to video conferencing.

  1. Low Latency

Another of 5G’s significant advantages is its low latency. Low latency refers to low response times. Commercial applications are heavy and thus demand a network capable of providing quick responses with excellent speed. Low latency and high speed can help benefit every industry.

But again, how low is 5G’s latency compared to 4G? While 4G’s latency is about 35-35 milliseconds, that of 5G would be less than 30 seconds!

  1. Augmented Capacity on Network

While offering more incredible internet speed and low latency, 5G also provides increased capacity on the network. In places where many mobile phones are present, the existing network could suffer due to increased pressure on it. But 5G, with its benefits like increased capacity on the network, avoids such network stress and works effortlessly without letting speed or latency affect it.

  1. Enhanced Reliability

5G’s massive network capacity also contributes to its higher reliability and productivity compared to its predecessors. Thus, with 5G, problems like dropped calls, connectivity issues, etc., will be history. These factors can significantly contribute to applications like healthcare, connected cars, the IoT, smart cities, etc., where connectivity is at the nucleus of efficiency, data, and experiences.

Why should companies upgrade to 5G?

Competence is essential for success in today’s competitive business world. Upgrading to 5G can specifically assist businesses in achieving the technical competence required to thrive in a volatile market.

5G can help companies communicate more efficiently and seamlessly. Also, it can allow them to effortlessly leverage technologies like IoT, analytics, AI, ML, etc., to benefit from interconnectivity, interoperability, automation, and data. Thus, in a way, 5G can catalyze various business opportunities and amplify existing ones.

Digital transformation is the phrase that you’ll hear everywhere in present world. It has become an essential part of every business owner’s agenda. Of course, it is beneficial, which is why everyone is looking forward to it.

But digital transformation, as you may know, represents a gamut of technologies aimed at digitizing a business ecosystem to make it more efficient and tech-driven. And, since it continuously evolves, it will always have some technology emerge. But which technologies are the pick of all and slated to be the next big thing in digital transformation? Let’s look at a few, which we think will make it big.

5G

The fifth generation of cellular data networks is one of the most exciting aspects of the digital transformation revolution. While 3G and 4G had their share of excitement, 5G is slightly different! It isn’t only about increased internet speed but many other factors that make 5G the next big thing in digital transformation.

5G is projected to benefit businesses in many ways. It is fundamentally about speed, availability, and connectivity, where 5G stands out among its predecessors. Here’s why 5G is the buzzword of the digital cosmos.

  • Eight to ten times faster internet
  • Ultra-high speed data transfers
  • Quicker and safer Wi-Fi
  • Low latency communications
  • Enhanced rural connectivity
  • Network slicing – one network sliced in multiple!
  • Increased remote working speed
  • More reliable network
  • Increased connection capacity

Artificial Intelligence

Is AI the next big thing in digital transformation? We’d say it would always be, as it will keep progressing by the day. AI doesn’t need an introduction. It is all-pervasive, and most industries have become veteran users of the technology. Nevertheless, some, on the other hand, are relatively new and evolving.

AI is beneficial for every industry that uses it appropriately. For instance, in the manufacturing industry, AI-based automation can not only help expedite the manufacturing pace but help companies respond to changing market needs.

Additionally, allied technologies like predictive analytics can help companies prepare for potential supply chain disruption, market changes, etc., and devise strategies for them to thrive amidst adversities. Similarly, it can help them identify opportunities and tap them to outperform their competitors.

Another sector where AI can bring about a revolution in healthcare. It can help doctors diagnose diseases more quickly and accurately, leverage virtual nursing assistants to monitor patients, and use big data analysis to provide a more personalized patient experience.

Likewise, AI can revolutionize agriculture as well. The use of AI can help farmers analyze soil conditions, detect plant diseases, monitor livestock health, target weeds through AI sensors, etc. The result is improved harvest and increased agricultural accuracy, termed precision agriculture.

  • Semiconductors

Semiconductors are another part of the expanding digital revolution. Per reports, the global semiconductor industry generated sales worth USD 50-52 billion in May 2022. These figures signified a staggering 17-19 percent YoY increase.

Thus, the semiconductor industry is turning hotter by the day. Semiconductors are everywhere. Yes. Almost everywhere! You buy an EV – it has a semiconductor. Similarly, semiconductors find critical applications across laptops, mobile phones, LED, embedded systems, consumer goods, etc.

They significantly drive the gadget’s efficiency, which is why it wouldn’t be wrong to say that semiconductors are at the nucleus of electronic products. Of course, they are evolving and will continue to do so. Hence, they are slated to grow stronger, more capable, and much more helpful than they are today.

  • Smart Lifestyle

Smart living is yet another exciting thing that could take the world by its storm. A potential example of it could be your home preparing juice for you when you are back from a morning walk! We wouldn’t know if it will happen this year or even in a year or two. But since we’ve already come such a long way, expecting this level of technological progress doesn’t seem illogical or a tall tale, for that matter.
